Hello Reginald,
Thank you for your feedback and review. Overcoming inventory concerns when brands aren't cooperating takes persistence as much as good documents.
Matt and our team were so happy to see your account restored!
Best of luck on your next chapter. Keep us in mind when you need us again. We're here to help!
It took almost 2 months to get the brand reinstated due to a false claim but Estefany was fantastic. She was determined to overcome our issue.
If we could give Estefany 10 stars we would.

Riverbend helped me get my Amazon seller account reinstated after a 2 year+ Section 3 suspension related to inventory sourcing. Their team gave me a clear plan, helped me understand the documentation Amazon needed, and guided me through switching to legitimate wholesale sourcing. The process was efficient and straightforward, ultimately leading to getting my account fully restored in a very quick manner. I would definitely recommend them to sellers dealing with a serious account suspension.

We worked with Riverbend on an Amazon Food and Safety Compliance issue. Amazon kept requesting certifications that weren't applicable to our product, and after trying to resolve it ourselves without success, we decided to work with Riverbend.
The team quickly understood the issue, developed a clear strategy, and helped us escalate the case to the right people within Amazon. Since Amazon's responses were often slow and didn't address the actual problem, having Riverbend's expertise made a huge difference.
They were knowledgeable, professional, and persistent throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Riverbend to anyone dealing with complex Amazon compliance or regulatory issues.

Hello Julia and thank you for your wonderful review!
Compliance issues are crucial. The wrong documents can become a liability quickly, and when Amazon isn't accepting legitimate docs, the business interruption can be devastating to the bottom line.
We're glad you brought the issue to us, and we're happy to have been able to help.
Don't hesitate to reach out if we can help again! We're here for you.
Great service highly recommend. Sunnie was able to bring back my suspended ASIN which was hijacked by fake chinese sellers.

Hello Otto and thank you for sharing your experience!
Havin g an ASIN hijacked is a scary experience, especially when you can't get the people in charge of the platform to listen. We're excited to see this resolved, and Sunnie and our team were happy to assist.

If you are having a really difficult issue with Amazon, I highly recommend contacting this company. After trying to solve a complicated issue for a very long time where Amazon seller help said there was "no path forward," I contacted Riverbend after reading their fabulous reviews, and yes, they can solve your problem by escalating it beyond what sellers can do by themselves. I am extremely grateful to Rick Z. and their whole team!

Our company had a great experience working with Riverbend. Their professionalism and systematic approach gave us confidence to follow the plan. While it took longer than we had hoped, they got our product reinstated and provided us with the knowledge on how to proactively protect our brand and product listings moving forward.

Hello Aaron!
I appreciate your feedback and your thoughtful review. Restricted product situations are often difficult because Amazon won't share any information that might help a bad actor circumvent policy and regulation. What that means for good actors like yourself is it can often feel like communicating through a brick wall.
That's why we're here! I'm so glad Bryan and our team were able to help you overcome that wall, and I know Bryan and our whole team are excited to see your products back up for sale.
We're here for you; just give us a call if you need us!

I had great experience with Riverbend. They helped us reinstate our Amazon account which was suspended due to the business complexity, so the Amazon rep who facilitated the first video interview did not understand that and he decided to suspend the account. Riverbend was very responsive, we had a few zoom calls with different team, and they guided us exactly on what to do and how to approach the situation. We managed to get our account reinstated after 3 appeals. Thank you!

Followed an Ad to Riverbend, and had my consultation meeting with them. After talking up their services, and their successes, I had repeatedly asked if my case was typical and they had said yes it is! I signed up thinking they can quickly resolve my issue with Amazon. I provided all my documentation, and they "thoroughly" reviewed my account, however, after a couple months, all it was template emails that I had to send to various amazon emails. It was nothing that much more above and beyond that I had done just googling before paying Riverbed to do almost the same thing. Finally reached the end of the road where they said they cant do anymore, other than pay another lawyer, which I had originally wanted to do, on top of my already big expense. Better off solo.

Hello James and thank you for your feedback.
After multiple attempts to get Amazon to see reason through appeals, including letters to executives with authority over both the platform and the enforcement, Amazon sadly confirmed that they would not release your funds.
When Amazon issues final-word language about releasing held funds, arbitration is often the only remaining path that can compel them to produce their evidence or release the money. Sadly, this can be cost prohibitive and depending on the amounts held may not work for every situation.
We share your disappointment in this outcome and genuinely wish you the best going forward.
Riverbend were a great help with updating our Amazon Country of Establishment. Sunnie provided excellent guidance throughout the process and made everything much easier. Highly recommend!
Reply from Riverbend Consulting2026-06-01
Hello Adam,
Thank you for your feedback and review. Country of Establishment changes can be difficult, as Amazon may throw up technical roadblocks to prevent account takeovers. Their security can get in the way when legitimate changes need to be made.
