Receiving excessive negative seller feedback

When Seller Performance or another Amazon team flags this issue, they look for evidence that you understand what triggered the notice, what you changed operationally, and how you will prevent a repeat.
Common issues sellers hit on High Negative Feedback Rate appeals include incomplete documentation, mismatched ASINs or order IDs, and Plans of Action that skip a verifiable root cause. Required documents come from the notice itself: invoices, tracking, supplier letters, process screenshots, or metric exports that match the ASINs and dates Amazon cited.
