May 22, 2016 Dear Amazon Affiliates I have tried several times to contact you via your website and I’m getting formletter responses and no explanation. You have recently terminated my Amazon affiliate account account (Willvideoforf20) and I have not seen any evidence of a legitimate reasons. Could you *please escalate this? * According to communication from someone named Gary, my BeyondViral website was autotagging sessions. That's impossible! That site has been down for months! I don't even know how to login right now, much less autotag a session. The only link to Amazon from Beyond Viral was an affiliatetagged link to my own book that I sell on Amazon (Beyond Viral). Again I do not generate automatically tag customer sessions! I don't even know how I would if I tried. Can you show me some evidence or provide some detail? The only thing I imagine may promoting this is that a friend and I use each other's affiliate codes. He set something up on my browser that puts his affiliate ID when I buy products, and he's doing the same thing. These would be specific to our OWN computers – for our own modest purchases. If you find that people are buying from autotagged sessions beyond that, I truly have no idea how it's happening. If this doesn’t get addressed, I am done with Amazon. I encourage you to keep these things in mind: For well over a decade I have been a loyal customer to Amazon. Please look at your records and see how much I spend annually on Amazon. I would suspect I’m in the top 510 percent of customers. I have bought dozens and dozens of books on Audible. I purchase many Amazon products like the Echo/Fire TV and Kindle – and I blog about these products and mentioned them in my videos. In addition to my own purchases, I have supported Amazon on my blog (willvideoforfood.com). And on my YouTube channel, which has 235,000 subscribers and 298 million video views. This is really infuriating, and not what I'd expect from Amazon. All I’m getting is these form letter responses. It's really sad. Here is what I would expect from a worldclass customer service organization like Amazon: a) Show me the courtesy of telling me specifically what has provoked you b) Educate me and teach me how to turn it off c) Tell me what I can do to avoid this in the future did someone hack beyondviral.com? d) Give me a warning if there actually was some evidence that I inadvertently broke a policy. Thank you in advance for giving this more attention and not sending another form letter. Kevin "Nalts" Nalty www.willvideoforfood.com www.youtube.com/Nalts
