Fax troubles cause Amazon to cancel a $6,000 software order and leave one customer thoroughly unsatisfied, according to the Consumerist. When fax is a mission critical operation, as it often is industries such as healthcare, retail or government, successful fax transmission and receipt is of great importance. Any gap or barrier to communication can leave an organization’s customers and partners out in the cold.
An Amazon customer and Consumerist reader recently purchased $6,000 worth of software from the retail giant. Her purchase could not be verified and Amazon requested that she fax Amazon sensitive banking documentation to verify her purchase. She did so and reluctantly continued to do so on multiple occasions per Amazon’s requests. Amazon provided no confirmation of receiving her fax, leaving the customer concerned of the safety of her confidential information and thoroughly unsatisfied with the retailer. Without sufficient information from Amazon regarding the handling of her sensitive information, the customer was forced to cancel her bank account. The customer never received the software she purchased.
