Amazon withheld some seller takings temporarily but is releasing them after some businesses came close to collapse.
Daniel Moore had £230,000 frozen by Amazon, and said business is still suffering after the money was releasedAmazon has started releasing some sellers' funds back to them after many UK and EU sellers complained of money being held unexpectedly.
The policy was implemented on 3 August across the UK and EU for sellers registered before August 2016. But hours later on early Saturday morning, he was told of Amazon's policy change, meaning his takings were available again. "This doesn't make any sense," Andy told the BBC. "Amazon is toxic as equally as it is brilliant - but we also feel they're our greatest enemy right now".
He says he received notification on Saturday saying all of his takings had now been released, but that the pause in income led to issues along his whole supply chain that could take up to two further weeks to resolve.
