Amazon suspension consultants Thompson & Holt have been featured on the Web Retailer blog.

For Amazon sellers, having their account suspended has become an occupational hazard. But this doesn't mean that it's any less damaging when it happens. Sellers have to contend with the fact that they have little or no funds coming in, while expenses like staff costs and rent still have to be paid.

Monitor & Protect is a comprehensive Amazon seller protection service from Thompson & Holt. It includes account health notifications and listing hijack alerts, to help sellers avoid suspension in the first place. If suspension does occur, Monitor & Protect includes an appeals service, and most sellers are reinstated quickly.

But if sellers are out of action for more than five days, there's cover to fall back on of up to £50,000 (around $70,000), underwritten by insurance market Lloyd's of London. Here's how it all works, including a real example of the claims process in action.

Amazon seller suspension consultants Thompson & Holt have added Amazon seller suspension insurance to their "Monitor & Protect" service.

The Monitor & Protect service alerts sellers about issues which would cause a suspension, and with the new insurance now covers expenses such as wages, rent and overheads incurred during a suspension.

To qualify, sellers will need to have general liability and product liability insurance in place (a requirement to sell on Amazon), an average store rating of 3.49 or higher, and be based in North America or Europe.

Businesses of all sizes can be insured with a maximum coverage of 60 days. If a seller needs to make a claim they will need to notify the insurance company within 5 days of receiving the suspension notification. The insurance covers losses of up to £50,000 and is underwritten by Lloyds of London.

Stuart White, Director of Thompson & Holt said, "This additional insurance will give many Amazon Sellers additional peace of mind should the worst happen. Most sellers automatically assume that if an Amazon account is suspended that the seller has deliberately breached Amazons policies. We speak to at least a dozen sellers each week who have been targeted by well organised syndicates who deliberately try, and often succeed, in suspending competitors accounts. If this happens to an innocent seller the consequences can be devastating".

Thompson & Holt offer a free 30 day trial of the Monitor & Protect alerts service.
