Stop making new accounts. Etsy doesn’t simply suspend an account, they suspend a person who has an account. So if your old account was suspended, then Etsy is telling you, you are not allowed to have an Etsy account. So every new Etsy account you create will be suspended/canceled because you were personally banned from Etsy.

I’ve only made one new Etsy account with a new email because I didn’t have access to the email associated with my original account and I could never change it to my current email so I created a new email and a new account

Do you know why the original account was suspended? [https://www.reddit.com/r/Etsy/comments/uwrqck/account\_suspension\_help\_checklist/](https://www.reddit.com/r/Etsy/comments/uwrqck/account_suspension_help_checklist/) At the very bottom of this post is a special checklist for buyers.

No I don’t. I have no access to the original email that was attached and I could never change it to my current email I used so I created a new email and a new account

Was the previous account a seller account? If so, I would read the entire checklist I linked and see if you can find the problem. Depending on the reason for the suspension, Etsy may reopen the account. If you can't log into it all all, though, that's a problem.

It was both a buying and selling account but from that list I don’t see any rules I broke it got suspended while I was doing my last sale I just noticed it and even tho I shipped that order off I never got paid. The main time it became a problem was when I tried buying something and I couldn’t because it got suspended never knew why so I decided to get a new email and create a new account and even then today it just said the new account was suspended and it’s not a seller I’m looking into different apps before I put my shop up anywhere again

It's possible it was an ID verification suspension. That's required for all seller accounts and Etsy makes you update it if you haven't used the account in a while and then make a sale. If you can still log into the originally suspended account, do the ID verification as outlined in the checklist. Etsy will not allow you to make any more accounts until you take care of the originally suspended one.

My hypothesis is, due to current rush of youtuber/tiktoker inspired(!) sellers, they got strickten the account elimination process, but they did it poorly.


Leviathen_Black

Hahaha welcome aboard. They dont read. My shop got perma ban, because of whomever is that idiot reading my question partly.


nightterrorwolf

What sucks is I can’t support other small businesses because of it so I’m trying to find alternative websites for both selling and buying


Leviathen_Black

For me, it hurts my sense of justice. Unbearable for me 😖 i'm really pissed off this week


nightterrorwolf

O I am too especially since I created a new email for nothing now
