Oh no, that’s such a stressful situation. Don't beat yourself up too much—everyone makes mistakes, especially with how strict platform rules are nowadays. Waiting for a compliance response is always the hardest part. Hopefully, someone here on the forum can share a direct contact or a way to appeal it so you can get a second chance. Honestly, situations like this are exactly why relying 100% on big legacy platforms is getting so risky. One slip-up and you can lose access to your business overnight. It's the main reason a lot of creators and teams are shifting towards building independent white-label backends to keep their core fans safe. At least there you actually own your traffic, payouts are secure, and you have direct communication without automated blocks.
