How to Speak With a Real Person at Amazon Customer Service
Amazon is one of the biggest retailers in the world, and that can make it quite challenging to shove past the FAQs, user forums, and Reddit threads to actually talk to a human over the phone. As you probably already know from trying to contact someone on Amazon's "Contact Us" page, there is no direct number to call. That's by design.
Luckily, there are other quicker ways to get a hold of someone who can listen to your specific issues, which may be helpful to keep in mind as its Black Friday deals roll in.
Get a super fast callback from AmazonAmazon doesn't like you calling directly, but that won't stop us. The quickest way is to use this link to enter your number and have them call you right away, but if that doesn't work, try these steps to get Amazon to call you fast:
Visit Amazon's Contact Us page
Select Something Else
Select I need more help
Say "Request a phone call" from the customer service chat
Respond "Yes"
Select "Connect with a Customer Service Associate"
Say "Request a phone call"
Choose "Ok, I'll enter my phone number" and click on the text to proceed to enter your number

As you can see from the screenshot, it takes a couple of tries on the chat to get the machine to give you the option of getting a callback, but that's nothing a little persistence can't fix. Keep in mind Amazon slightly tweaks this process every once in a while and your experience might vary because of many different factors, but the solution is likely to be very similar.
