Etsy Shop Suspended - What Happened Next SHOCKS Everyone!

How to contact support!?? You can’t !!

I’ve had my shop taken down just yesterday. Absolutely gutted. Nearly 2000 Sales and three years of hard work.

It is crazy this. Spend forever and a day putting a shop up (2 weeks) and they suspend it without an email. Appreciate you trying to explain what without an email or with an email means but still don't make much sense tbh! Have emailed support and still within the first 1 - 2 days so will see what they say....

This really feels absurd. I opened a shop, worked my butt off on my ONE listing (digital resource book) and was suspended. Problem is 1. I don't know the EXACT reason it was suspended (email from etsy: (If your Etsy account is limited, it may be permanently suspended for violating Etsy’s Terms of Use. This may include but isn’t limited to: Items listed for sale don’t meet our handmade, vintage, or craft supply policies Items violate Etsy’s Prohibited Items Policy Shop violates Etsy's Intellectual Property Policy The account owner’s information is inconsistent, incorrect, or closely associated with an account previously removed from Etsy) But I also CAN'T ACCESS MY ACCOUNT, so how can I try to figure out the issue, respond to it by rectifying it, when I can't access my account? So filing an appeal will do me no good because there is nothing I can do anyway. Kinda ridiculous!

I literally just opened a shop with no products and I'm permanently banned. It's so strange! I even appealed and they kept it permanent without explanation.

Hello. In order not to be suspended, I have 2 questions. We need to enter our credit card information for expenses in the store information. Can this card be virtual card? I shop from ETSY with the same card, and I have never had a problem. Or do we have to enter my original card for sure? My second question: When we produce in Midjourney, do we have to enter it as a production partner? Thanks

Your account was suspended due to a connection with a shop that is no longer eligible to operate on Etsy. While we're unable to disclose the specifics of our internal review criteria, the significance of the information connecting these accounts has led to this decision. Although we’re unable to discuss your account status further, if you have questions related to fulfilling orders, your Payment account, or your business history, please let us know. Any solution 😪

Thank you very much for this video (it's updated so it's very good). My store was closed for selling copyrighted items. I received the email 20 minutes later, and I file an appeal, 24 hours later I received an email where that said '' We have an open case with a number (appeal case #) please reply with an explanation. I explained the problem and I did not receive any more emails. 9 days have passed since then. I'm not sure if I should insist and write all over the place or sit and wait. What do you think? Thanks

yo got the same thing. 1st shop ever selling digital ai, ran $2 ads 3days and 4th day got same msg saying temp suspended check email for reason. I checked my email as well as SPAM folder but no etsy email except for a CONGRATULATIONS ON OPEN YOUR SHOP! hahaha. filed an appeal cuz i cant find a direct support email and today is the 2nd day of waiting for response of what exactly I did wrong. bank was verified and no copyright cuz i just sell seamless AI designs for tumblers ahaha.

I haven't infringed any of the conditions you stated and I was not given a readon for permanent suspension, I was simply told I had violated their conditions. So if they don't tell me, how the hell do I appeal????

I have got response as we have made our decision and can't get your account back. What should I do, I can't make a new account too. I am literally panicking. I have 300$ stuck

I am currently working on setting up my shop. My account has temporarily limited access because of a suspicious login. I made an appeal, they requested info which I sent and it's been 21 days. Any suggestions, its definitely longer than 2 weeks?!

So my etsy store was shut down because i put goddess on tiles and mugs so that is apparently making a hate speach and violating religions. When i asked what was wrong they said its 'dirty' i removed all ' dirty ' listings. Now ive had my shop shut down completely. So confused 😢

My shop blew up going from 0-3 orders to 20+ orders a day. Shortly after that have been suspended (about 3 days ago,), no email nothing. Managed to fill out the unban form and my account was reinstated within hours. I was told I was banned in error. Now (yeasterday) this happened again, no email nothing, account suspended can't even log in. I try to go through same process, but it leads me already submitted and compleated unban form. I can't make a new one, every time I try to contact etsy I am told they won't discuss anything with me until I submit an unban request. I am in a dead end loop. What do I do? Edit: I also have over 1k euro in funds that were not withdrawn, what happens to them? Today despite my shop not existing and not even being searchable I got an email informing me about new order I've got. What the F is happening?

i am new and they closed my shop for not updating my bank, after i wrote them to reactivate my shop and they suspended me permanently! as much as i try to write them and write a letter telling them who i am and what happened i get a reply from a machine, because if it's a human it doesn't make sense that they won't open it again! how can i contact a human on etsy?

Etsy sounds like it's run by an AI written as a High School software project.

i JUST opened my shop..made 6 sales and got permanently suspended and they refunded one customer....no idea why...i sold metal garden hose holders..wtf

I’m wondering if a competitor may be targeting you by filing bogus TOS violation claims on your listings.

Etsy suspended me because I said ....for a doll such as Barbie.....That was all just one phrase. Is this copyright infringement?

So here’s the thing. I got a permanent suspension. They closed my shop and I had no access to log into it to correct anything. All I could do was send an appeal. They shut me down after 8 months no explanation. Just an auto generated email jours after the suspension. After I sent my appeal stating I didn’t know why I was suspended but please let me know so I can fix it. They sent me the same automated message some other ppl received just that I violated terms but no idea what and why and they wished me luck and peace out ✌️ I’m devastated I never had any open cases no emails no notifications.
