Amazon
New Seller Account Blocked and Funds Held 90 Days

I was a new seller on amazon.com and I find it quite suspicious that I was waiting the 14 day period for all new sellers and the day before that time period was up amazon decides to "review my account" and then once I provide this information they blocked my account with no reasoning? I confirmed all shipment with tracking numbers and already have had 2 of the customers provide positive feedback, there's nothing negative at all. They say they're holding my money to make sure there's no chargebacks, so basically the person gets my item for free and has 90 days to break it or something and then i have to refund them and i still am not paid!? That's the most absurd thing I've ever heard! This is the only department with no phones and any email i send to them basically gets a copy and paste email, I think that's lousy customer service. I depended on that money for bills and certain medications that i take and cannot wait the 90 day hold when i was supposed to be able to disburse two days ago [9/2]. Now my bank account is going to be overdrawn because certain transactions are coming through and amazon is holding my money. Even when i contact the CS department i get the run around, although they admit that amazon does this a lot. I used to order from amazon a lot, as a seller, this seems like nothing but a scam and after doing some google searches as well I see I'm not the only one this has happened to. If someone could help get my money released to me within the next 48 hours or so I'd really appreciate it. Thank you
