Can't gift book on Amazon

So that we can provide faster and better support, this forum (the "Public Suggestion Box") has been retired. Instead, please send any suggestions you have to us using the official website contact form.

This allows us to streamline our support system so that we can get to your message much faster. Instead of our support staff having to check three different places (support forum, suggestion box, and contact form messages), they know can respond to all message through one method, with that one method being the official website contact form.

Can't gift book on Amazon

Post by suzannawilliams »

Hi,
I am an author and recently tried to put my book here for review.
The site keeps on sending me reminders that I have not finished this because I need to gift the book on Amazon.
I am unable to find out how to do this. The handy screenshot provided of where to find the link does not show on my screen.
I am happy to provide reviewers with a mobi file for their kindle but now cannot find a way to change this on my request.
So I'm stuck.
If anyone knows how to edit the request so I don't have to gift on Amazon, I'd be forever grateful.
I am soooooo confused by the site :-(

Oh thank you :-)
Now if only I could figure out how to get to the link as I've deleted those pesky reminder emails that led me straight to it ...

I am getting the same thing - I am in the UK they don't offer this on the co uk site I have been trying for months lol

I just keep getting emails all the time - I can't finish it but I did upload in pdf format but still continue to get the emails
looked everywhere for a help button but none found so out of desperation before I loose my mind with those constant reminders I am posting here hoping that I can get it reviewed and stop these emails :)

What you still need to do to finalize your review request for "Snowdrift Strangers Snowdrift Strangers Snowdrift Strangers Snowdrift Strangers"

You still need to submit an Amazon Gift Code for this book. Please send the gift certificate to your own email address, and then use the form to submit the code from the email.

Your review request for "Snowdrift Strangers Snowdrift Strangers Snowdrift Strangers Snowdrift Strangers" is NOT live. It will not be live until you have completed the items listed above.

well I have uploaded the pdf and I CAN'T send a gift so I how on earth am I supposed to finish it so it can get a review?

sfm, I have removed your selection for the gift card. You should be able to finalize your request now.

Are you using method 1 or method 2?
