Not too salty option
If you’re hesitant to talk to someone, whatever your reason, a less pleasant option is to contact Amazon’s customer service via email. The Amazon customer service email address is cs-reply@amazon.com.
When emailing Amazon customer service, be sure to include as many details about your problem as possible.

Chat with a live representative online
The last way to contact Amazon customer service is through live chat. Unfortunately, contacting a live representative via live chat does require some hoops to jump through.
First and foremost, to enter chat, you need to start from Amazon’s customer service help page. This page will populate a library of your recent orders and FAQs for you to choose from. Selecting any of these will take you to an automated chat that will try to help you resolve your issue without the involvement of a customer service representative.
Before you jump into automated chat and start spamming variations of the “talk to a representative” phrase, give the process a chance. Amazon’s automated customer service system is very robust, and most questions are listed in their help library. Whether you’re canceling an Amazon order, requesting a refund, or modifying your two-step verification settings, automated systems can help you solve a host of problems.
Of course, sometimes your questions go far beyond what Amazon anticipates in its help library. In either case, you’ll need to find the “Additional Help” option on Amazon’s help page. Clicking this option will take you directly to the chat. The chat will be automated initially, but if your question exceeds the capabilities of the automated system, we will engage a representative to assist.
Access customer service via mobile chat
If you contact Amazon customer service through the Amazon app on your phone, the process will be slightly different than contacting through the web. However, the process is still simple.
- Open Amazon app.
- Click on your account tab.
- choose your account.
- choose contact us.
- choose view all near the top other things Label.
- choose I need more help.
From there, you’ll enter the same automated chat environment available on the web page. After some iteration with the automated system, you will be able to contact a live representative.
No matter what your needs are, there are many ways to contact Amazon’s customer service. While it may seem like a daunting process, knowing how to get where you need to go can make a world of difference.
