Amazon Won't Permit My Comments

I buy quite a lot through Amazon.es. Certainly more than the 50€ minimum per month to be able to post comments on products I have bought. But these last few months my submissions have been refused ( I made no nasty comments ), getting a message that I don't meet their requirements. It doesn't really bother me, but I have been sent a free book by my favourite author with the understanding that on the day publication I leave an honest review. But Amazon won't let me. Any ideas ? I have searched their page but can't find any help.

Are they verified purchases through your Amazon account? I get an email (that I ignore), practically after every time I have bought something, asking to give feedback.
I had no idea that there was a purchase minimum before you could review....which country is .es?
Nor did I woofy. There should be no minimum to be able to leave a comment.
....es.Spain
.es is country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Spain (espana)
gosh there is a minimum purchase limit....who knew?

In the same paragraph it says that purchases have to be made through Amazon.co.uk. This might be the problem here.
Question Author
Yes, España. I do admit I didn't buy the book through them, but I have tried other products that I have, and same result. Mmmm. Better get my sons onto it I think !
that's because I don't speak Spanish, Jackdaw, so I decided to check the UK site
Eligibility (UK).....£40 minimum per YEAR.
(Spain)..............50 euro per MONTH.
Really?
I blame brexit
Don't know if the limit is part of it. But Wow to their being one. So I'm reading here that Amazon have no interest in getting customers the widest possible set of opinions, but simply to rig the system just to sell more goods ?
Maybe it's to discourage fake feedback as it's common for sites to arrange for positive comments (you can buy likes for Facebook for example) and for rivals to make up negative comments. The Spain figure seems far too high though
Seriously !?
Amazon.ca & .com (US) have no purchase requirements.
They welcome feedback; every purchase has an email requesting same.
Validity can be checked by a tag stating "verified buyer'.
Yeah, time to get out of the EU, eh?
