    Amazon's T&Cs do no ever remove anyones consumer rights.

    HTH.

    But the OP has no Consumer Rights with Amazon as they never purchased from Amazon, their consumer rights is with the retailer poke.io
  • To put it bluntly, you ignored Amazon's terms and conditions and lied to open an account and lost money as a result of this.

    Do you think that Amazon's or any websites T&Cs allow them to steal people's money?

    Even if you open using false/faked details? You're as sharp as ever I see. You're just what this thread needed;)

    If you steal a coat from Marks & Spencer you can't very well return it for an exchange if it's faulty.

    HTH:D

    I'm not sure if getting the money back would be easy if at all.

    OP can just take Amazon to court to get his money back.

    We don't know that. The OP thinks that, he won't know until he contacts where he acquired the gift certificate. It is quite possible that they will check the gift certificate, find it has not been used and be able to refund. Nothing else is relevant until he finds that out.

    Just because you're an expert on closed and suspended accounts, having had so many, does not qualify you as an expert on every variation.

    No idea. He seems to have fraudulently acquired an Amazon account, thus negating his consumer rights. As I said in the first place.

    Have you ever thought of writing comedy? Your posts get funnier by the week.
