If we determine that additional information is required during an A-to-z Guarantee claim (“Claim”) investigation, we will contact you via email with a request for more information and provide a claim notification on your Seller Central homepage that requires your attention. This may include (but is not limited to) the following information:
If you do not respond to our request for additional information within 48 hours, the claim will be granted in favour of the customer, and your account will be debited for the claim amount. This claim will impact your Order Defect Rate. You can monitor your Order Defect Rate using the Account Health dashboard.
