9moI'm extremely frustrated with Alibaba's dispute resolution process. It's illogical that they permit sellers to conduct business discussions on platforms like WhatsApp and WeChat, only to later reject those same conversations as valid evidence in disputes. This contradictory policy is at the heart of my complaint. My case needs to be immediately reviewed by a senior, impartial dispute resolution team. I also need clarification on where Alibaba's official policies say I can only request a new mediator after going through after-sales intervention. This seems like an unfair hurdle. Alibaba's claim to "protect buyers" rings hollow when they allow sellers to use deceitful tactics and then ignore the only proof of their unlawful actions. This inaction effectively supports criminal activity on their platform. I expect a prompt and meaningful response, outlining exactly what will be done to resolve this, not just another generic email.
