They did say states with a lowercase s. ‘States’ = regions within a country, ‘states’ = countries.

£ is from a country that does not have states

Like the person you’re replying to said, some people use state and country as synonyms sometimes

country = states != States

Technically no. Greenland is a country but not a state. It has a sovereign government but is not represented directly internationally. It is part of the Kingdom of Denmark which is a state but not a country. Then there is Denmark proper which is also a country but not a state.

Amazon is from a country that does.

But it IS a state. Sorry if you’re not a native English speaker but just because your vocabulary is lacking doesn’t mean they are wrong.

A gift card is not a refund.

TBH I would expect stronger consumer protections in the UK…but I definitely don’t know about this type of refund specifically.
HonoraryMancunian@lemmy.world 11 months ago
The UK, for all its problems, does typically have some of the best consumer protections in the world. I can see Amazon being forced to overturn this if there’s enough uproar (which there might not be tbf, seeing as they gave extra credit as compo).

Many countries other than the US are comprised of a federation of states. And also those that aren’t are generally considered nation states or sovereign states, which are still definitively states. The United States of America do not have an exclusive right on statehood.
Plus even though it may be implied that the original replier intended the context to mean the United States of America… it is a valid response with further implication that one should check their local jurisdictions laws if they were so inclined to do so.
