Amazon's suspension notice for order defect rate (odr) too high issues typically contains one or more of these phrases:
The Root Cause section is where most appeals fail. Amazon does not want excuses — they want you to identify the specific internal process that broke down.
Focus your root cause on:
Break down ODR by component: A-to-z vs negative feedback vs chargebacks. Identify specific orders and the process failure behind each.
These must be written in past tense — actions you have already completed, not promises.
Contact each buyer who filed A-to-z or negative feedback and resolve
Request negative feedback removal where Amazon policy allows
Respond to each chargeback with evidence
These are the ongoing processes that demonstrate you will not reoffend. They must be specific and measurable — not vague promises.
Pre-shipment inspection checklist for every order
Proactive shipping updates to prevent A-to-z claims
Daily ODR monitoring via Account Health dashboard
Treating ODR as one number rather than breaking into components
Not identifying specific orders that caused the spike
