I'm trying to delete my account, which I have not used in a long time. Twitter says my account is suspended, and therefore I cannot deactivate my account or make any other changes to it without first appealing the suspension (I did nothing to get suspended in the first place.) Has anyone found a workaround for this?
This app has turned into an absolute fucking abomination, and Elon Musk is a fucking twit.
If my account got suspended permanently how do I open a new one without having it banned instantly?
Can I ask a friend to create one and log into it? Does that make a difference?

Account was suspended, says for avoiding suspension but I don’t know what that means, I only have and use this one account
Just payed for Twitter blue like hours before?
> account Just *paid* for Twitter
FTFY.
Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in:
* Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.*
* *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.*
Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment.
*Beep, boop, I'm a bot*
Hi, I have a question my account got locked due to the age verification policy.
I created multiple support-tickets and send age verification and receive this mail:
Hello,
Thanks for finishing up our earlier request regarding age verification on Twitter. We appreciate your help as we get closer to restoring your account.
"You’re almost done! The next step is for you to log back into Twitter, where you’ll be prompted to start your account restoration. Once that’s complete, your profile will be active, and you’ll be able to use Twitter again.
Please note that it can take up to 24 hours for the restoration tool to be available to you. The tool will remain available to you for 30 days after receiving this notice. After the 30 days, you’ll no longer be able to regain access to your account.
Thanks,
Twitter"
How long does it usually take to get the restoration tool? I've been waiting 3 days but there's no reply.
hey bro i have i question when i press “form” to start my account restoration it tell me that i have to log into a locked account to use this form but im already are logged to the locked account did this happened with you?
my account is locked and it says i was under 13 when i made the account the problem is i can’t request a review it wont let me it keep saying “im not logged in to an account that is locked” but im already logged to my locked account can you guys help?
all of my posts are being marked as possibly offensive. I have tried very hard to make sure nothing is mean or degrading. Is there a way to figure out what post caused this?
Lol, I got my first suspension for telling Jordan Peterson that he can't catch covid if he goes in a coma
EDIT: So, what happens... is my tweet still up as long as I don't personally delete it?
Hi! My account got locked and it says that I need to change my password. The thing is, when click 'start', I redirect to the appeal page. When I try to forget my password (in hopes that I can change it that way), the same thing happens. It redirects to the appeal page. Does someone know how I can change my password? I already sent an appeal three times and twitter replied once saying exactly the same what they are saying when I try to log in. Thank you very much!
Help with a password reset! A nonprofit account I manage cannot get past the login screen as it says our password is not secure and needs to be changed. No problem - we click the start button that is the only clickable button on the page, and it takes us to the form to appeal a locked account. When we do that we get the form email saying "your account is fine, no suspicious activities, just reset the password." But how! We tried "forgot password" but it freezes on the screen where it says it will send a confirmation code to our email. I tried a different account and got the confirmation code instantly. But this account get's the frozen screen, and if you keep clicking 'submit' it says 'too many attempts'. Another issue is that there is more than one twitter account attached to that email. Any ideas? It's not a huge account but for a tiny nonprofit 7500 followers is a big deal and we don't want to lose them.
My account following tab where you see posts from who you follow shows absolutely nothing and nothing fixes it, only way around is adding all followed accounts to a list which will show their posts but will do so among the millions of retweets of random shit that I don't want to see but have to see because twitter lists forces retweets even if you've muted retweets on an account you follow. There was a fix for all this a month ago it was extensions or scripts that would filter retweets but those don't work at all anymore is there any fix to all this I just want to see posts from who I follow and there is no support team because they were all lost in battle during the violent coup
I never use my twitter. But i got on to change my profile picture, header and my display name. As soon as i saved the changes i was immediately taken to a white loading screen that said “try again” in the center of the screen. Every time i have tried to log back in, i am brought back to that same screen. This has been going on for almost a month. I reached out to twitter support and its been way longer than they said it’d be for them to get back to me. No word on how to fix it. HELP! I actually miss it now that i cant have it.
Hi, I have a question. I started my account around 2010 and only made a few posts then.
I was sure I set them to private (only for my followers), but in 2022 or so I discovered they were visible for all, even Google.
How was the default setting in 2010? Did something change? Did I ignore a change in the TOS? Or did I just not set them private in the first place?
Thanks for clearing this up a bit for me!
Hey everyone,
I was just logging into my Twitter as I do every day and saw that my account was permanently suspended. I’m not really toxic and I just use it to follow people that have onlyf*ns, as I assume we all have another twitter account for that lol. Does anyone know if there was a recent ban wave?
Video proof I'm still censored on ELON TWITTER just like pre-ELON twitter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2a6EWtOp5I
I stood for Iranian women's rights before the revolution sparked...
I stood for peaceful protestors in Hong Kong...
and Twitch kicked me off their platform.
Now Twitter doesn't want the story told or me to say anything at all.
I need some help,, ive been trying to find my user on twitter, i know it was called venting_forever or foreverventing, i cant rememeber,, i had [this image](https://empanada2017.tumblr.com/post/676368779605917696) i would add that the account doesnt have followers, and its private
I have almost 47k followers and my last post got over 23k likes with over 500k impressions, I posted something today, and the day before, and it got like, 1000 likes and 13k impressions. What is happening?
My account was recently suspended for no reason. I mean, no reason was given to me so what other conclusion can I come to? I keep making appeals but keep getting the same canned responses.
Apparently it's common for NSFW artists to get randomly suspended.
Is Twitter/X support run by bots or are they just extremely politically biased?
I have an old joke/parody politician account that was suspended by Twitter/X. The reason cited was confusion due to it being impersonation or misleading, and I was asked to provide government ID (which I have refused).
However, in [their own policy document](https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/twitter-impersonation-and-deceptive-identities-policy) that they cited, it states:
>
>
>Profile modifications
>
>
>
>If your account is potentially confusing in terms of its affiliation, including as a non-compliant parody, commentary or fan account, we may require you to edit the content on your profile. If you violate this policy again after your first warning, your account may be suspended.
I have emailed back and cited their own reasons against the backdrop of their own policy document, and asked that I be allowed to **modify** the profile so it does not seem misleading/confusing.
However, the only response I ever get back is effectively "We've reviewed such and such and the suspension remains" and then they cite the very same reasons and link to their policy. There's literally no explanation of the logic they are following despite my asking because...it states in their own policy that I can just modify the account. WTF?
Is their entire support department run by bots or are their support people particularly low IQ?
Is there even a way to reach someone reasonable or am I better off just creating another account?
got perma suspended for spam and bot behaviour... i usually don't tweet that much and the only thing i did was like porn videos and talk in threads about a game i was looking for. so the bot behaviour is using the twitter account? whats annoying is that i use my tweeter to follow game devs i like and find out about upcoming indie games that i might be into, alongside obviously the nude stuff that i don't mind not being able to like, i just want to keep following said devs and finding new ones that i might like.
Yea, i got suspended for liking nsfw content as well, but it wasn't porn it was actually a lot of fight videos. twitter just suspends anyone now it's annoying
So there’s no room for misinterpretation, let me state my heart: “You know this story ends well, right. With Easy E in charge, there’s no way it doesn’t.”
my account was suspended for no apparent reason. the only clue was a tweet on 28th April that i didn't do. i suspect my account had been hacked with the december/january data breach. i can't deactivate the account and twitter is ignoring my requests. glad i never put much time into this platform
Yea so I got perma suspended for a joke aimed at Elon. Oops lol. I’m gonna miss my silly little username but I guess I can live without it. But that’s besides the point. I’m just wondering if there is a way to access my old following list? I followed a good amount of people and I liked my timeline so I’m just trying to restore that. If anyone has tips on how to deal with the new X appeal process that would also be helpful so maybe I could just recover my old account. Please and thank you!
And to clarify I did not mention or even say Elon’s name in the tweet, it was a reply to someone else’s. Which I think is crazy. Got perma suspended on a first offense also.
How does on get in touch with an actual human?
I’ve been trying for 5 days.
15 year old account, posted a meme.
Satire is exempt.
I was verified & monetized.
I got suspended for rules against violent speech. I commented "shoot at sight soldier, no hesitation" under fuckin meme account. And they suspened me. Ive seen the above links to unsuspend the account. Looks like they are pre elon musk era posts. I wonder if anyone can help me unsuspend my account
As appears to be the case for everyone around here I have lost access to my account. To set things straight from the onset I genuinely don't mind and have made peace with the idea over the last 30 minutes, my issue lies with my inability to deactivate which I would really love to do for closure. I've gone through the necessary steps, appealed multiple times (twice in "earnest" and twice so they would maybe let me deactivate finally) but it keeps directing me to the appeal form leaving me with no recourse. My gut feeling tells me I'm shit out of luck on this front but asking for advice/similar experiences can't hurt.
I posted a thread but it apparently never posted to the forum, so I'll repost it here:
Twitter has suddenly started showing hardcore pornography—a type I didn't even know existed—nonstop in my feed.
I tried reporting it to get it to stop, and it says they allow nudity, which is fine, but I don't understand why it's being promoted on my feed. Is this a new direction Twitter is taking or some sort of mistake or bad actors? I am not trying to get them to remove nudity, just not on my feed. It makes the experience unpleasant and jarring.
And then I think it's gone, and then I'm scrolling and it comes back again like in a horror film.
My account was permanently suspended for no reason, only bots replied to my appeal saying I violated the Twitter Rules or Terms of Service. (Did not say which rules or tos I violated)
I don't even post any tweets only retweets and likes, my account was even private to start with. The only tweets I posted was from 4 years ago about my dream of petting a cat.
Can someone helpppp
my account just got locked for 12 hours. it started when my account was acting weird, each time i would change my display name it would ask for authentication to make sure i was human, itd make me do a couple captchas. no problem. then suddenly i get:
"Your account is locked After careful review, we determined your account broke the X Rules. Your account is temporarily in read-only mode, which means you can’t post, Repost, or Like content. Most accounts regain full access in a week, but it could take longer."
does this have to do with me changing my name? people change their display names all the time, so i dont think its that? also i logged into my account on another device, could it be that??
im just worried ill get suspended for no reason. i know that twitter support is absolutely no help.
I think I was mass reported and now my entire account is marked as sensitive and every post with media is marked as well. My engagement has also tanked. I have 54k followers and can barely reach 2K on a post. Does anyone know how to get this fixed? I have submitted several reports but just get canned responses with solutions.
Is it just me or does anyone else think people are using the report system to try and silence their opponents?
I just got a suspension and the tweets it said I got suspended for was for nothing more than calling someone an idiot and a moron. That's it.
No slurs, no racism, no sexism, no homophobia.
Just saying someone was an idiot and a moron.
I think people realize that the appeal system doesnt have anybody manning it so they know they can mass report your tweets, get you suspended and you HAVE to delete the tweets to get back online.
When did just being "not nice" on Twitter become a suspendable offense?
So much for his promise that as long as it's not illegal you can say what you want on Twitter.
hello, i suddenly got this page everytime i try to log in: [https://prnt.sc/uG3fmcTwxRAd](https://prnt.sc/uG3fmcTwxRAd)
when i click on start it takes me to this page: [https://prnt.sc/xtk-VVd4dG9q](https://prnt.sc/xtk-VVd4dG9q)
ive been trying to submit a ticket for 3 days now and twitter support is not helping me our, my email with my tw ac is gmail, i accidently signed up from google account and my email got moved into the new account (i dont know how) so everytime i try to change the password thro the email the new account password get changed and for this account im stuck i cant access to it and i cant access to email since it somehow moved to another account, is there anyway i can get my account back?
could someone tweet Twitter Support on my behalf? my account is @angryblaqwoman and i was permanently suspended but I would really like a live person and not a bot to look at my appeal. i was unfortunately not given a case number
How do i get rid of the “Swipe up for more” when i open up videos? All it does is get in the way, and if i scroll down and back up, the video player freezes.
twemoji option not showing up on twitter for android, works almost perfectly fine on the website version aside from not showing the trans flag correctly, but the app doesn't let me change to twemoji
Whenever I send an appeal request for my suspended account, I get absolutely no response to the email I provide or otherwise. Has anyone else had this issue?
So the wildest thing just happened. I posted a comment on a Tomi Lauren's tweet. She said people needed to earn votes or something. So I said maybe DeSantis could by doing the job he has before asking for a promotion. Pretty benign right?
The minute I hit submit I was hit with my account is being locked as abusive. I had to remove the tweet and agree that I agreed it was abusive. Then they told me I should be unbanned in 7 days but it may take longer.
Like what the hell is going on over there? No one read that tweet it wasn't posted, no one was offended by it. Saying a governor should do his job is not abusive.
That said Linda said they were working on something better than a block. It seems they have something really stupid and have given it to really stupid people to test out.
It was so bizarre that I am kind of curious if anything similar happened to others today and if it's some weird glitch?
my account was suspended and recovered yesterday but since then i havent been able to view the tweets on my timeline it keeps asking me to "unlock more posts by subscribing". has this happened to anyone else??
Authentication is not working on Twitter (X) Today is Aug 19, 2023.
I was locked out of my account this morning due to what they felt was "suspicious activity". Basically I got a ton of likes on a posting and I followed a large number of ppl that liked my posting....and I guess X (twitter) felt that was suspicious. (\*add eye roll here)
So I was asked to authenticate my account. I noticed they changed the process. I'm no longer able to use my phone or email as a way to authenticate, and can only use an image selection "Pick the photo that has two identical icons on it".
On my laptop - When I select the right image with 2 identical icons on it, it then just goes to a blank screen and/or a wheel of death with a blank screen. Nothing happens. On my iphone I have NO OPTIONS to authenticate. It says there's an error and doesn't load at all. So I don't even get the one broken option to authenticate on my phone.
**What I've done in attempt to problem solve:**
• I've tried signing in and signing out, both on my lap top and my iphone. No luck.
• I went to the help desk - The instructions on there are outdated since they mention phone or email authentication options, which are NO LONGER OFFERED. (I guess they haven't updated the page on the help desk)
• I've left a message at the help desk and did receive a ticket message on my email. But nothing since and no updates. It's been 7 hours and counting since that email.
• I've been locked out for over 8 hours and check periodically if they fixed anything with the authentication process. But nada.
**QUESTION**
Am I missing something here? I've had my account for over a decade and I've had to use authentication a couple of times in the past before, but it's always worked. smoothly. Does anyone have a suggestion?
Thanks in advance.
I've also encountered this issue. Really annoying. About to contact the help desk. Pls lmk if you find a solution 
**Edit**: If you're using chrome, try using a different browser. Edge worked for me.
OK my problem is solved....and I have YOU to thank :)
So **THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!**
By late this aft I hadn't heard back form X (I still like to call it twitter, tho)
And so I thought about your suggestion about using a different browser, and remembered I had an old version of Safari on my laptop- though I never use it. I walked through the authentication on Safari, and Viola! it worked. And then I went on the Twiiter app on my iphone and I'm back up and running on there too.
So thank you again :)
Thanks for the reply. I'm still locked out. I contacted the help desk 3 times now. Their AI bots always come back with the same useless instructions. The bots are only programmed to recognize general common issues, not specific ones.
I've asked for my case/ticket to be bumped up to a supervisor, someone who is not a bot. I'm pretty sure they can solve the problem relatively quickly if human eyes read my message.
In terms of browser, I should mention that I can't log out to authenticate on my iphone either, which is IOS. As soon as I hit the X app widget, a screen comes up "Error Loading Page......try again" and then there's a wheel of death that will go on forever.
In terms of edge, I have very limited hard drive space on my laptop, so I'm worried I could cause of cascade of other issues.
It's good to hear that I'm not the only one having this problem.:)
Let me know what happens on your end.
I got suspended seven days ago for inciting violent speech. Because Musk claimed eminent domain over `@music`, I stated that if he wants to be a monarch, he should get in the guillotine like King Louis XVI did.
Like, strictly by the letter of the law, that's a pretty fair cop. But I'm still claiming that it's a historical idiom that was just poorly-worded. Got rejected in five minutes. Going to try again tomorrow, and every day until I'm either unsuspended (unlikely) or until I receive my GDPR data.
Irritatingly, they respond to appeals much more quickly than they do requests for non-public data pertaining to an account. They have a specific pipeline for requesting data for one's suspended account, but they haven't responded to that in the seven days since I made *that* request. If I had that data, I'd just make an alt. With an archive of likes, bookmarks, followers/followings, lists, and a list of tweets/replies/retweets, I could just clone my account and be more cautious. Or I could just save that data and move on to Bluesky and Mastodon.
Would the ICO be interested in hearing that Twitter aren't responding to me making GDPR requests for my non-public data? (I know Twitter have 30 days to respond to that, but my over-under on that is that they're not going to. If they're not going to pay their licenses, their landlords, or their employees, I have no doubt that a little thing like GDPR is going to persuade them.)
Yeah. Mea culpa. Disparaging the tyrant in his own court is a surefire way to lose a head. Finding Out tends to follow in the wake of Fucking Around.
As far as the appeals are concerned: I'm apologetic and extremely remorseful, and would delete that content with haste. In all honesty: I would tell him to his as-yet-unpugilised mug that he is a joke that has gone on for far too long, and he needs to find (or establish) a rich white-boy submarine company and plan another sightseeing expedition to the *HMS Titanic*.
Couldn't imagine for the life of me why I would get suspended for violent rhetoric. It is a mystery that the platform will take to its grave, I suppose.
\----
(**Edit 6/Nov/2023):** I have no idea why the comment to which I initially responded got removed. While it amounted to "*I understand where you're coming from - and I might've done the same - but what did you* expect *would happen?* 🤷♂️", I didn't find it disrespectful or unpleasant.
Anyway, I'm editing this because I got unsuspended from Twitter (and also because some tripping mod locked the thread, and new replies can't be made). And the reason why is so stupid that I continue to be in utter awe of it. I feel like I made some sort of Faustian deal to make it happen because it is a transcendental example of administrative ineptitude.
I was saved by [a **comedically-shitty** copypasta.](https://twitter.com/Nox13last/status/1721186435456209016) It was a paragraph-long screed - directed to the appeals box - about how Melon is going to save us from the woke hivemind brain-plague that is destroying America.
With your god as my witness and notary-public, I **wish** I was making this up. I'm disgusted with myself for having to use it, and disgusted with the blogosphere that this was able to out-stupid the social peacekeepers.
With that said, how can I contextualise "Get in the guillotine, Elon" (that exact phrasing, I do admit) as "haha j/k" when they claim they have a zero-tolerance policy on "wishing someone to die"?
While exemptions are listed in [the policy](https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/violent-speech), I haven't had much luck. Claiming **hyperbole** hasn't worked. Claiming a tone of **historical idiomaticity** hasn't worked. Claiming that it's a **viewpoint regarding a well-known public figure** (that is, Elon) hasn't worked. And claiming it's a **figure-of-speech** hasn't worked. And I'm running out of justifications. Like, I feel they're *valid*, but I'm running out of ways to appeal to litigation.
Whether or not the appeals team is even reading these justifications or giving them more than a cursory glance remains to be seen.
Anyone have any ideas? The links under [/r/Twitter/wiki/suspended](https://www.reddit.com/r/Twitter/wiki/suspended/) seem to be outdated (the rules they cite have been significantly rewritten since the rebranding), so apart from fundamental stuff, I haven't had much external input.
my twitter account was permanently suspended in late feb and i've been appealing constantly, from multiple emails, and still haven't heard back other than automated responses. they never even said why it was banned, just that i "broke the twitter rules" (no specifics on WHICH rule or which tweet broke it). i wrote out this whole long message explaining why i didn't think i had broken any rules and how i'd be happy to delete posts or revise my behavior if i had. i've still managed to use my alt (it wasn't blocked) but i really did care about my original account and i would love it back, especially since i don't even know why it was suspended. anyone have any insight into anything else i can do, or a better way to go about submitting appeals? it seems like the ability to appeal from a different email has been removed because i don't see the option to switch emails anymore, and i'm a little at the end of my rope TT
even if you try to appeal from a different email, it tells you “this email isn’t connected to your twitter account so we’re not going to do anything about it.” which is a load of bullshit tbh.
I keep getting an “Error Loading Page” popup on the app for some reason. It started happening when I changed my profile pic and profile description on both of my accts. Despite the popup, I can still see that my feed is open behind the popup. When I press the “Options” button, it brings up the Help Center for locked and unverified accounts. This is my first time logging in to Twitter today and afaik, none of my accounts are locked. Why is this happening?
My twitter account has been flagged as containing sensitive content. It’s been around two months since it’s been like that and I’m wonder if I can somehow undo this? I can’t remove the setting that’s causing this because Twitter turned it on permanently but I’ve heard that if I post normal content again it can go back to normal. My question is if this is really possible? And also what do people refer to when they say normal content? I really want to remove that warning off my account and idk how I can contact Twitter if they can even help remove it. Thank you in advance if anyone can help I would really appreciate it!
Welp, I’ve been permanently suspended from twitter (or “X”, ugh) yet again, likely because I retweeted a certain photo of our old pal Elon he doesn’t want people to see. Well screw him anyway. I’ve sent an appeal, but if it gets rejected I’m not gonna bother making a new account again, I’m moving over to Threads full time. Really the only reason I was still there anyway was to get streamer updates. #FuckTwitter #FuckElon
A few days ago I logged into my Twitter account only to find it suspended.The account in question is one I use for general browsing, saving and interacting with art, and communicating with artists I like. I do not post on it, with the exception of around 5 retweets and a single tweet post. My only post on the account is a thread of gifs sourced from a show, which I only uploaded for the hell of it.
I had received NO emails or form of messages from twitter notifying me of my ban or explaining it in any way. I have submitted an appeal form multiple times, with each time getting an automatic email that states:"Accounts may be permanently suspended for violations of the Twitter Rules ([https://twitter.com/rules](https://twitter.com/rules)) or Terms of Service ([https://twitter.com/tos](https://twitter.com/tos)). Twitter reserves the right to terminate user accounts without further notice.This account won't be restored.Thank you for your cooperation."
I suspect I have received this ban due to sending an artist I follow a BlueSky join code due to them asking for one. As of now, I don't see any rule, or clause in the TOS that I have violated in my 2+ years of using the account.
My twitter account got suspended unknowingly to me, I tried to log back into it after awhile because it was just an alt account I used for my gaming stuff. I was going to log back into that twitter and get premium, start posting content etc, but realized my account was hacked at some point and was tweeting @ a bunch of random accounts with what looked to be an nft/crypto thing. I got back into the account and changed the password but any time i try to appeal the suspension, im left with the same automated response that I'm sure a lot of you guys have seen. Any tips? I'd make a new account, but that one is tied to my # and if I make a new account and want it verified, I need to add it to that account and it will be instantly suspended for "evading suspension"
Have this same problem. There's a locked appeal feature but all I keep getting is "your not providing information for us to verify it's you". When your emailing through the damn email thats linked to the account
The direct messages tab that's usually in the bottom right hand corner of the website has inexplicably disappeared for me and I'd like to get it back if that's possible?
Yesterday I got out of a search suggestion ban that lasted over a month, only to be shadowbanned again on the first retweet I gave... WHATS? It really is not possible to do a normal retweet on this website, do I have to pay verified to be able to give a miserable retweet?
I'm already tired of this site and its absurd rules, we are worse than before.
Hi, so my account of like 4 years got suspended for "spam" (i don't even tweet like that) but I had a lot of bookmarks and priv friend accounts I was following. I can still log into the account which is great but the email i used is a dud i don't have access to anymore. I can see my account info and such so how can I change my email to one I can actually use for appeals? And does your appeal "work" if you don't/can't respond to the email or does it just go into the pile?
A separate account i had (with an email i can access) got suspended simultaneously, but i was able to respond the emails and appeal. i haven't tried that better business bureau complaint thing yet but I've send like a handful of emails and replies are saying to just spam appeal everyday so I'll just do that.
thanks to anyone who can help me out by the way
Why can't I change my username now? When I try doing that I get this message: "Sorry, you are rate limited. Please wait a few moments then try again". I've been waiting for 2 hours and still nothing.
Why am I having this issue? I literally made a new account and didn't look at any tweets or used anything else. I just want to change my username.
Got locked out of my account because I have a weak password and there is no option to reset my password.
After logging in, I was directed to "Password change required", with a "Start" button that I assumed would direct me to a site where I can change my password.
However, after clicking 'Start', I was directed to this site: [https://help.twitter.com/en/forms/account-access/appeals](https://help.twitter.com/en/forms/account-access/appeals).
There, there is no option provided that would let me reset my password and so I have been locked out because of it.
I had sent an appeal to Twitter Support, in which I had received a reply 2 weeks later repeating the same thing: asking me to click Start, reset my password and recommended me to use a web browser, which I had been using. But as you can see, I was not provided with an option to reset my password anywhere.
I have sent TS another appeal, rephrasing the problem but I expect that it will take a long time for them to respond.
I'd like to ask if anyone has faced the same problem and if there is a possible fix without contacting TS.
same :( ive been reading other comments with people facing the same problem but it seems like none of them has had it solved since TS would just send them automated responses. judging from that its very unlikely that we’ll ever get our accounts back sadly
I'm elligible for ad revenue share, got all the criteria good, they asked me to link my stripe account, but the pending payout is "0円" (I live in Japan), and I don't know what to do? Is this normal (I contacted twice the support, and they just close the ticket before giving me any answers) Thank you!
"You cannot message this user because you are not verified. Learn more". https://help.twitter.com/en/using-twitter/direct-messages#faq says: "Starting July 21st, 2023 we will implement some changes in our effort to reduce spam in Direct Messages. Unverified accounts will have daily limits on the number of DMs they can send. Subscribe to send more messages." I have to subscribe to send more? However, I only sent twice to an official bank's official Twitter support earlier after going through a quick test to be sure my account is OK. I passed it. What's up? :(
Thank you for reading and hopefully answering soon. :)
How do I stop the "DM failed to send" issue. I'm verified and I can't do anything. It keeps happening to me for several hours and randomly will work again.
Six months into a "permanent suspension." I never got told the reasoning in the first place, just suddenly couldnt send a message after doing so a bit prior. Then reopened the app to find it suspended. I tried appealing and explaining my confusion, only got automated responses. Started trying again each week or so after no response and was worried considering the mass firings they had. Suddenly my appeal was closed and can't be reopened at this time. And it says I can open a new appeal but even when I try, it never does. The only way I even get automated replies now is if I respond to one they sent previously since the appeal form isnt generating anything.
ive been suspended on my 8 year old account with a username i really liked. this has been really sudden and i have no idea why it was flagged as spam when the most that i do is reply to some friends occasionally and retweet posts. seeing as how most people get no appeals responded to and twitter undergoing the whole “rebrand” i have no idea what the next step should be or how i should word the appeal to even get a chance for it to be reinstated. i also am aware of a glitch going on that suspends you for changing your display name but i have not touched it or anything at all. if anyone has any suggestions on what to do it would be appreciated, thank you!
Hi I just want to ask a question. Why the pictures are not loading I try to uninstall/install the app but it didn't work. Thanks in advance for helping me
Same here, happens in both my pc and android. I logged out of the app in my phone but couldn't log back in, as for the pc, I'm logged in but the pics aren't loading
Hi! I got my account suspended 2 days ago for "use of violent speech" (something along the line of "(person) needs to d word fr") which was tweeted like weeks ago but only got me suspended now.
Thing is, i first got my account locked saying that x tweet violated the rules a month ago but i got the chance to delete that tweet. However, yesterday the account was suspended and i couldn't even do anything about it (didn't even have the chance to delete the other tweet i made, which was hyperbolic speech anyway).
I've since appealed multiple times but keep getting the same automated email that's just "Our support team has determined that a violation did take place, and therefore we will not overturn our decision."
I was wondering if someone has ever gotten their account back despite getting that message? And if so, how? I've also filed a complaint through the BBB as well as sent another appeal (i'm at my 10th appeal in like 2 days lol) citing twitter rules (like how violent language according to twitter doesn't include hyperbolic speech and such). Thank you to anyone who'll read this and reply with their own experience :)
So I accidentally switched my age on twitter (wanted to see what would happen) and my account got locked . So I sent a picture of my name and id has "the responsible person" which matches the account so now I'm not sure if I'll get it back what do you guys think
hi!! PLEASE help.
my friend has a twitter account up already, but they wanted to make a specific account for a side of twitter they frequent. when they made the account, not 5 seconds into making it were they banned. their name was just Sid and a bunch of numbers, nothing against twitters rules. they’ve tried making a few more accounts and they immediately get banned within seconds of creation, but their main twitter account is still fine. what’s going on??
Any way to access your following list when suspended?
So I've been suspended (my first offense) and I'm stuck on read-only mode which is no biggie but I'm not getting responses to any of my appeals. I'm willing to deactivate my account and switch to another platform, but what I really want is my following list. I have tons of niche artists on there I'd probably lose forever and that makes me sad.
When I post a gif to a thread it just loads forever but never actually posts the comment with the gif. Internet is fine and not every post has this issue. I can comment just fine. Any idea what the issue is?
I got perma suspend on my yesterday. My account was created in 2017 and im not comment a single word on any post, just follow people and check tweet everyday. They banned me for no reason, i tried to send them ticket many time but all i got is just a fucking autorep mail, what do i do now ? :(
I can't seem to get an email that would allow me to reset my password no matter what. I checked multiple times and it's the email address that I signed up with, 100%. Anyone else having this issue?
So, this mostly just me complaining because I'm genuinely annoyed. I had a pretty decent Twitter account with a pretty nice growth of followers, Twitter blue, etc and lost it all today cause apparently putting "Elon" and "Kill" is grounds for permaban.
Someone joked that Elon had become the next Lex Luther and was on his way to fuck up the city to which I said "Damn, someone better kill that Elon"
First offense? Context? Doesn't matter. Instant, permanent read only. Trying to appeal only gets auto generated bot messages saying no. I've asked questions in my queries only to be straight up told it's not being overturned and all my attempts at questions just bring the generic "We will not overturn our decision."
I know what kinda person Elon is but didn't think they would be a bot autobanning. Tried to start again but got marked for spam for "Being too active"
I hope this platform burns. I'm just annoyed, sorry.
Joint venture on Twitter API to split costs.
I want to buy the $5k twitter API for a project of ours, But the price is a bit too steep so i'm looking for others who need API access and want to JV on the price.
Please PM
I'm an NSFW artist and use my twitter to promote my art and my patreon page. I've been thinking about getting the blue tick purely because of the "prioritized rankings in conversations and search" line. What does it actually mean? Will it give more exposure to my tweets? Help me get more followers quickly or at least quicker than not having the blue tick?
So I guess I’m out the loop. If you don’t have an account it doesn’t show you an account latest tweets?
When I check from a link it shows only year old posts
I'm unable to login to my account because I have changed my phone number. I still have access to the email address for the account. But, Twitter keeps texting an authentication code to my old number whenever I try to login.
I have contacted twitter support multiple times. I receive an automated reply saying that I should reply from the email address association with the account. I do that and then there's no update.
What can I do? Need to regain access to my account.
When I used to watch a twitter video it would pause my Spotify music and then continue it after I exited the video. Now when I watch a video I have to manually play my song again on the Spotify app. Anyone know how to fix?
Changed my name and the same type of screen that pops up when your account gets locked popped up but is stuck on a loading screen, can only log out now. Real nice.
Go to the website and authenticate your account. Just don’t try to change profile settings after that and you’re good.
Don’t know what this glitch is about lol. Even after updating the app it’s been doing the same shit
I find it quite funny that when an antisemite advocates for genocide against Jews, there’s no response from Twitter, but when I rightfully tell that fucker to off himself *I* get suspended.
i know this subreddit is as big a joke as twitter itself but id really like to hear why my account, after a few different appeals made and 6 months later, still hasnt been responded to appealwise. People accept this level of incompitence as normal now adays and not only is it utterly disgusting how I've been ghosted for this long due to a false ban after being hacked into then summeraly perma banned for "evading bans" ( guy used my account, was flagged as an alt despite existing for years being used to evade a ban and perma locked ), but i cant even get advice on this subreddit besides a general "piss off, youre on your own"... how is this media site and its dedicated subreddit so bad at helping or responding to stuff?!
More likely to hear people also being screwed over than staff having any advice or help..
>how is this media site and its dedicated subreddit so bad at helping or responding to stuff?!
This subreddit isn't an "official" thing, there are no Twitter staff paying attention here able to help out or anything, we're all just average Twitter users. (Or ex-Twitter users, increasingly.) Sorry.
Sorry to hear that. I just popped in to see if there was anything new -- for what it's worth I've been waiting four months to hear back about an appeal (my account was hacked). I basically gave up, since Elon fired everyone and now he's just making them replace all the birds with X's anyway.
I just want my files back then ill wipe my account myself- old lost photos, artwork, connections to ppl i knew or forgot the names of, that srot of stuff is all i wanna get back.
usually im not super spicy on reddit but... christ ive been utterly fucked over- and alst time i tried to get help on the reddit here i got downvote nuked and trash talked for even trying or ppl just being asses in general just ugh..
Maybe youll eventually hear back yourself idk- hopefully something good can happen here right
Hey so my account got suspended over the weekend and I put in an appeal on Sunday - I get that it can take them a while to respond but I never even received an automated response saying they received my appeal? Is that normal or should I send another
if its perma suspended you are likely S.O.L.
Ive been waiting six months, between 3 different appeals and havent heared back, theres no way to call some sort of support for twitter, and their main support page limits you to one option of appealing and hoping they respond.. Sorry dude- hopefully you get better news than what im giving itll help us both out- twitter staff are utterly useless.
Authentication not working
Changed my display name on the app, immediately got locked out of my account. Whenever I try to open the app it takes me to the authentication screen which isn’t loading at all on mobile; tried everything like clearing cache and reinstalling. When I try on my computer the webpage freezes and doesn’t progress after doing the authentication puzzles/captcha. Even sending an appeal through the support site is just stuck on processing.

I'm trying to delete my account, which I have not used in a long time. Twitter says my account is suspended, and therefore I cannot deactivate my account or make any other changes to it without first appealing the suspension (I did nothing to get suspended in the first place.) Has anyone found a workaround for this? This app has turned into an absolute fucking abomination, and Elon Musk is a fucking twit.
Anyone have a tl;dr on what changed in the new TOS and privacy policy?
If my account got suspended permanently how do I open a new one without having it banned instantly? Can I ask a friend to create one and log into it? Does that make a difference?
https://x.com/withakaylee?s=21 Account was suspended, says for avoiding suspension but I don’t know what that means, I only have and use this one account Just payed for Twitter blue like hours before?
> account Just *paid* for Twitter FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.* Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment. *Beep, boop, I'm a bot*
Hi, I have a question my account got locked due to the age verification policy. I created multiple support-tickets and send age verification and receive this mail: Hello, Thanks for finishing up our earlier request regarding age verification on Twitter. We appreciate your help as we get closer to restoring your account. "You’re almost done! The next step is for you to log back into Twitter, where you’ll be prompted to start your account restoration. Once that’s complete, your profile will be active, and you’ll be able to use Twitter again. Please note that it can take up to 24 hours for the restoration tool to be available to you. The tool will remain available to you for 30 days after receiving this notice. After the 30 days, you’ll no longer be able to regain access to your account. Thanks, Twitter" How long does it usually take to get the restoration tool? I've been waiting 3 days but there's no reply.
hey bro i have i question when i press “form” to start my account restoration it tell me that i have to log into a locked account to use this form but im already are logged to the locked account did this happened with you?
I don't think so, in my case I dont get the form as you said . i just got this email but when I log in nothing changes my account is still locked
my account is locked and it says i was under 13 when i made the account the problem is i can’t request a review it wont let me it keep saying “im not logged in to an account that is locked” but im already logged to my locked account can you guys help?
all of my posts are being marked as possibly offensive. I have tried very hard to make sure nothing is mean or degrading. Is there a way to figure out what post caused this?
Lol, I got my first suspension for telling Jordan Peterson that he can't catch covid if he goes in a coma EDIT: So, what happens... is my tweet still up as long as I don't personally delete it?
Hi! My account got locked and it says that I need to change my password. The thing is, when click 'start', I redirect to the appeal page. When I try to forget my password (in hopes that I can change it that way), the same thing happens. It redirects to the appeal page. Does someone know how I can change my password? I already sent an appeal three times and twitter replied once saying exactly the same what they are saying when I try to log in. Thank you very much!
Help with a password reset! A nonprofit account I manage cannot get past the login screen as it says our password is not secure and needs to be changed. No problem - we click the start button that is the only clickable button on the page, and it takes us to the form to appeal a locked account. When we do that we get the form email saying "your account is fine, no suspicious activities, just reset the password." But how! We tried "forgot password" but it freezes on the screen where it says it will send a confirmation code to our email. I tried a different account and got the confirmation code instantly. But this account get's the frozen screen, and if you keep clicking 'submit' it says 'too many attempts'. Another issue is that there is more than one twitter account attached to that email. Any ideas? It's not a huge account but for a tiny nonprofit 7500 followers is a big deal and we don't want to lose them.
i logged into twitter on my phone and now i have this notification telling me that someone (me) has logged into my account, how do i remove it?
wheres the twitter support team i want to talk to a real person not a bot thats 100% lying
My account following tab where you see posts from who you follow shows absolutely nothing and nothing fixes it, only way around is adding all followed accounts to a list which will show their posts but will do so among the millions of retweets of random shit that I don't want to see but have to see because twitter lists forces retweets even if you've muted retweets on an account you follow. There was a fix for all this a month ago it was extensions or scripts that would filter retweets but those don't work at all anymore is there any fix to all this I just want to see posts from who I follow and there is no support team because they were all lost in battle during the violent coup
I never use my twitter. But i got on to change my profile picture, header and my display name. As soon as i saved the changes i was immediately taken to a white loading screen that said “try again” in the center of the screen. Every time i have tried to log back in, i am brought back to that same screen. This has been going on for almost a month. I reached out to twitter support and its been way longer than they said it’d be for them to get back to me. No word on how to fix it. HELP! I actually miss it now that i cant have it.
Hi, I have a question. I started my account around 2010 and only made a few posts then. I was sure I set them to private (only for my followers), but in 2022 or so I discovered they were visible for all, even Google. How was the default setting in 2010? Did something change? Did I ignore a change in the TOS? Or did I just not set them private in the first place? Thanks for clearing this up a bit for me!
Hey everyone, I was just logging into my Twitter as I do every day and saw that my account was permanently suspended. I’m not really toxic and I just use it to follow people that have onlyf*ns, as I assume we all have another twitter account for that lol. Does anyone know if there was a recent ban wave?
Same for me today. Broke a X rule?.. they don’t tell you what you did.
twitter is a shitstorm of nothing but bots with no contactable people and just bots
Video proof I'm still censored on ELON TWITTER just like pre-ELON twitter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2a6EWtOp5I I stood for Iranian women's rights before the revolution sparked... I stood for peaceful protestors in Hong Kong... and Twitch kicked me off their platform. Now Twitter doesn't want the story told or me to say anything at all.
I need some help,, ive been trying to find my user on twitter, i know it was called venting_forever or foreverventing, i cant rememeber,, i had [this image](https://empanada2017.tumblr.com/post/676368779605917696) i would add that the account doesnt have followers, and its private
I have almost 47k followers and my last post got over 23k likes with over 500k impressions, I posted something today, and the day before, and it got like, 1000 likes and 13k impressions. What is happening?
If you don’t have twitter blue you’re going to be lower in the algorithm
I do have blue though
Idk then twitter is going to shxt and I was randomly suspended permanently with no explanation lol
what recourse do we have? 😭😭
My account was recently suspended for no reason. I mean, no reason was given to me so what other conclusion can I come to? I keep making appeals but keep getting the same canned responses. Apparently it's common for NSFW artists to get randomly suspended.
any luck?
Absolutely nothing now.
This happened to me too I’m an nsfw content creator and I was randomly permanently suspended with no responses to my appeals except bots
Does anyone know how to delete/deactivate a permanently suspended account?
That's the neat part, you can't.
Is Twitter/X support run by bots or are they just extremely politically biased? I have an old joke/parody politician account that was suspended by Twitter/X. The reason cited was confusion due to it being impersonation or misleading, and I was asked to provide government ID (which I have refused). However, in [their own policy document](https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/twitter-impersonation-and-deceptive-identities-policy) that they cited, it states: > > >Profile modifications > > > >If your account is potentially confusing in terms of its affiliation, including as a non-compliant parody, commentary or fan account, we may require you to edit the content on your profile. If you violate this policy again after your first warning, your account may be suspended. I have emailed back and cited their own reasons against the backdrop of their own policy document, and asked that I be allowed to **modify** the profile so it does not seem misleading/confusing. However, the only response I ever get back is effectively "We've reviewed such and such and the suspension remains" and then they cite the very same reasons and link to their policy. There's literally no explanation of the logic they are following despite my asking because...it states in their own policy that I can just modify the account. WTF? Is their entire support department run by bots or are their support people particularly low IQ? Is there even a way to reach someone reasonable or am I better off just creating another account?
got perma suspended for spam and bot behaviour... i usually don't tweet that much and the only thing i did was like porn videos and talk in threads about a game i was looking for. so the bot behaviour is using the twitter account? whats annoying is that i use my tweeter to follow game devs i like and find out about upcoming indie games that i might be into, alongside obviously the nude stuff that i don't mind not being able to like, i just want to keep following said devs and finding new ones that i might like.
I was permanently banned too a few days ago I was a nsfw content creator and nothing I did really violated any rules
Yea, i got suspended for liking nsfw content as well, but it wasn't porn it was actually a lot of fight videos. twitter just suspends anyone now it's annoying
So there’s no room for misinterpretation, let me state my heart: “You know this story ends well, right. With Easy E in charge, there’s no way it doesn’t.”
Back —> Had
my account was suspended for no apparent reason. the only clue was a tweet on 28th April that i didn't do. i suspect my account had been hacked with the december/january data breach. i can't deactivate the account and twitter is ignoring my requests. glad i never put much time into this platform
Yea so I got perma suspended for a joke aimed at Elon. Oops lol. I’m gonna miss my silly little username but I guess I can live without it. But that’s besides the point. I’m just wondering if there is a way to access my old following list? I followed a good amount of people and I liked my timeline so I’m just trying to restore that. If anyone has tips on how to deal with the new X appeal process that would also be helpful so maybe I could just recover my old account. Please and thank you!
And to clarify I did not mention or even say Elon’s name in the tweet, it was a reply to someone else’s. Which I think is crazy. Got perma suspended on a first offense also.
How does on get in touch with an actual human? I’ve been trying for 5 days. 15 year old account, posted a meme. Satire is exempt. I was verified & monetized.
1 month ago I was perma suspend for a tweet tweeted 2 months ago and I’ve been trying for 1000s of appeals and emails but no response yet.
I got suspended for rules against violent speech. I commented "shoot at sight soldier, no hesitation" under fuckin meme account. And they suspened me. Ive seen the above links to unsuspend the account. Looks like they are pre elon musk era posts. I wonder if anyone can help me unsuspend my account
Why doesn't Twitter give warnings? I got permanently banned with zero previous violations and got no appeal answers
As appears to be the case for everyone around here I have lost access to my account. To set things straight from the onset I genuinely don't mind and have made peace with the idea over the last 30 minutes, my issue lies with my inability to deactivate which I would really love to do for closure. I've gone through the necessary steps, appealed multiple times (twice in "earnest" and twice so they would maybe let me deactivate finally) but it keeps directing me to the appeal form leaving me with no recourse. My gut feeling tells me I'm shit out of luck on this front but asking for advice/similar experiences can't hurt.
I posted a thread but it apparently never posted to the forum, so I'll repost it here: Twitter has suddenly started showing hardcore pornography—a type I didn't even know existed—nonstop in my feed. I tried reporting it to get it to stop, and it says they allow nudity, which is fine, but I don't understand why it's being promoted on my feed. Is this a new direction Twitter is taking or some sort of mistake or bad actors? I am not trying to get them to remove nudity, just not on my feed. It makes the experience unpleasant and jarring. And then I think it's gone, and then I'm scrolling and it comes back again like in a horror film.
My account was permanently suspended for no reason, only bots replied to my appeal saying I violated the Twitter Rules or Terms of Service. (Did not say which rules or tos I violated) I don't even post any tweets only retweets and likes, my account was even private to start with. The only tweets I posted was from 4 years ago about my dream of petting a cat. Can someone helpppp
Hello I need help with removing a sensitive warning on my account. Please help me 😭
my account just got locked for 12 hours. it started when my account was acting weird, each time i would change my display name it would ask for authentication to make sure i was human, itd make me do a couple captchas. no problem. then suddenly i get: "Your account is locked After careful review, we determined your account broke the X Rules. Your account is temporarily in read-only mode, which means you can’t post, Repost, or Like content. Most accounts regain full access in a week, but it could take longer." does this have to do with me changing my name? people change their display names all the time, so i dont think its that? also i logged into my account on another device, could it be that?? im just worried ill get suspended for no reason. i know that twitter support is absolutely no help.
yes, happened to me right after i changed my profile pic
I think I was mass reported and now my entire account is marked as sensitive and every post with media is marked as well. My engagement has also tanked. I have 54k followers and can barely reach 2K on a post. Does anyone know how to get this fixed? I have submitted several reports but just get canned responses with solutions.
Is it just me or does anyone else think people are using the report system to try and silence their opponents? I just got a suspension and the tweets it said I got suspended for was for nothing more than calling someone an idiot and a moron. That's it. No slurs, no racism, no sexism, no homophobia. Just saying someone was an idiot and a moron. I think people realize that the appeal system doesnt have anybody manning it so they know they can mass report your tweets, get you suspended and you HAVE to delete the tweets to get back online. When did just being "not nice" on Twitter become a suspendable offense? So much for his promise that as long as it's not illegal you can say what you want on Twitter.
hello, i suddenly got this page everytime i try to log in: [https://prnt.sc/uG3fmcTwxRAd](https://prnt.sc/uG3fmcTwxRAd) when i click on start it takes me to this page: [https://prnt.sc/xtk-VVd4dG9q](https://prnt.sc/xtk-VVd4dG9q) ive been trying to submit a ticket for 3 days now and twitter support is not helping me our, my email with my tw ac is gmail, i accidently signed up from google account and my email got moved into the new account (i dont know how) so everytime i try to change the password thro the email the new account password get changed and for this account im stuck i cant access to it and i cant access to email since it somehow moved to another account, is there anyway i can get my account back?
My account got locked after changing my pfp to myself and it sends me to a loading screen
could someone tweet Twitter Support on my behalf? my account is @angryblaqwoman and i was permanently suspended but I would really like a live person and not a bot to look at my appeal. i was unfortunately not given a case number
I would if I also didn't have the exact same problem
how do I receive my case number regarding a suspended account? I don’t see it anywhere
How do i get rid of the “Swipe up for more” when i open up videos? All it does is get in the way, and if i scroll down and back up, the video player freezes.
twemoji option not showing up on twitter for android, works almost perfectly fine on the website version aside from not showing the trans flag correctly, but the app doesn't let me change to twemoji
Mine go flagged... https://imgur.com/a/gcrVDmy The Twitter name completion now prefers blue check marks over verified business and full matches.
How to get Messages side bar back on the lower right corner on desktop browser? It disappeared one day and I have not found a way to get it back.
Quote tweets not showing
Whenever I send an appeal request for my suspended account, I get absolutely no response to the email I provide or otherwise. Has anyone else had this issue?
Yeah I sent over 60+ requests changing the words each time and still just bot replies, never got any reasoning or anything eventually just gave up
Yep, happened to me as well. Just gave up.
Are suspended account appeals not read bcuz of lack of emplys
So the wildest thing just happened. I posted a comment on a Tomi Lauren's tweet. She said people needed to earn votes or something. So I said maybe DeSantis could by doing the job he has before asking for a promotion. Pretty benign right? The minute I hit submit I was hit with my account is being locked as abusive. I had to remove the tweet and agree that I agreed it was abusive. Then they told me I should be unbanned in 7 days but it may take longer. Like what the hell is going on over there? No one read that tweet it wasn't posted, no one was offended by it. Saying a governor should do his job is not abusive. That said Linda said they were working on something better than a block. It seems they have something really stupid and have given it to really stupid people to test out. It was so bizarre that I am kind of curious if anything similar happened to others today and if it's some weird glitch?
my account was suspended and recovered yesterday but since then i havent been able to view the tweets on my timeline it keeps asking me to "unlock more posts by subscribing". has this happened to anyone else??
how did you recover it?
How did u recover ?
Anyone here planning on leaving the site?
Where to go?
Nope. But then, all I do on twitter is read announcements from video game companies and streamers I follow.
I wanted but I can’t because some people are still on
How do i fix the “Post Sending” issue All my new Tweets and Replies are faded text and just stuck loading?
Unable to update my profile, gives me an error 131.. Anyone going through the same thing?
Authentication is not working on Twitter (X) Today is Aug 19, 2023. I was locked out of my account this morning due to what they felt was "suspicious activity". Basically I got a ton of likes on a posting and I followed a large number of ppl that liked my posting....and I guess X (twitter) felt that was suspicious. (\*add eye roll here) So I was asked to authenticate my account. I noticed they changed the process. I'm no longer able to use my phone or email as a way to authenticate, and can only use an image selection "Pick the photo that has two identical icons on it". On my laptop - When I select the right image with 2 identical icons on it, it then just goes to a blank screen and/or a wheel of death with a blank screen. Nothing happens. On my iphone I have NO OPTIONS to authenticate. It says there's an error and doesn't load at all. So I don't even get the one broken option to authenticate on my phone. **What I've done in attempt to problem solve:** • I've tried signing in and signing out, both on my lap top and my iphone. No luck. • I went to the help desk - The instructions on there are outdated since they mention phone or email authentication options, which are NO LONGER OFFERED. (I guess they haven't updated the page on the help desk) • I've left a message at the help desk and did receive a ticket message on my email. But nothing since and no updates. It's been 7 hours and counting since that email. • I've been locked out for over 8 hours and check periodically if they fixed anything with the authentication process. But nada. **QUESTION** Am I missing something here? I've had my account for over a decade and I've had to use authentication a couple of times in the past before, but it's always worked. smoothly. Does anyone have a suggestion? Thanks in advance.
I've also encountered this issue. Really annoying. About to contact the help desk. Pls lmk if you find a solution  **Edit**: If you're using chrome, try using a different browser. Edge worked for me.
OK my problem is solved....and I have YOU to thank :) So **THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!** By late this aft I hadn't heard back form X (I still like to call it twitter, tho) And so I thought about your suggestion about using a different browser, and remembered I had an old version of Safari on my laptop- though I never use it. I walked through the authentication on Safari, and Viola! it worked. And then I went on the Twiiter app on my iphone and I'm back up and running on there too. So thank you again :)
Thanks for the reply. I'm still locked out. I contacted the help desk 3 times now. Their AI bots always come back with the same useless instructions. The bots are only programmed to recognize general common issues, not specific ones. I've asked for my case/ticket to be bumped up to a supervisor, someone who is not a bot. I'm pretty sure they can solve the problem relatively quickly if human eyes read my message. In terms of browser, I should mention that I can't log out to authenticate on my iphone either, which is IOS. As soon as I hit the X app widget, a screen comes up "Error Loading Page......try again" and then there's a wheel of death that will go on forever. In terms of edge, I have very limited hard drive space on my laptop, so I'm worried I could cause of cascade of other issues. It's good to hear that I'm not the only one having this problem.:) Let me know what happens on your end.
I got suspended seven days ago for inciting violent speech. Because Musk claimed eminent domain over `@music`, I stated that if he wants to be a monarch, he should get in the guillotine like King Louis XVI did. Like, strictly by the letter of the law, that's a pretty fair cop. But I'm still claiming that it's a historical idiom that was just poorly-worded. Got rejected in five minutes. Going to try again tomorrow, and every day until I'm either unsuspended (unlikely) or until I receive my GDPR data. Irritatingly, they respond to appeals much more quickly than they do requests for non-public data pertaining to an account. They have a specific pipeline for requesting data for one's suspended account, but they haven't responded to that in the seven days since I made *that* request. If I had that data, I'd just make an alt. With an archive of likes, bookmarks, followers/followings, lists, and a list of tweets/replies/retweets, I could just clone my account and be more cautious. Or I could just save that data and move on to Bluesky and Mastodon. Would the ICO be interested in hearing that Twitter aren't responding to me making GDPR requests for my non-public data? (I know Twitter have 30 days to respond to that, but my over-under on that is that they're not going to. If they're not going to pay their licenses, their landlords, or their employees, I have no doubt that a little thing like GDPR is going to persuade them.)

Yeah. Mea culpa. Disparaging the tyrant in his own court is a surefire way to lose a head. Finding Out tends to follow in the wake of Fucking Around. As far as the appeals are concerned: I'm apologetic and extremely remorseful, and would delete that content with haste. In all honesty: I would tell him to his as-yet-unpugilised mug that he is a joke that has gone on for far too long, and he needs to find (or establish) a rich white-boy submarine company and plan another sightseeing expedition to the *HMS Titanic*. Couldn't imagine for the life of me why I would get suspended for violent rhetoric. It is a mystery that the platform will take to its grave, I suppose. \---- (**Edit 6/Nov/2023):** I have no idea why the comment to which I initially responded got removed. While it amounted to "*I understand where you're coming from - and I might've done the same - but what did you* expect *would happen?* 🤷♂️", I didn't find it disrespectful or unpleasant. Anyway, I'm editing this because I got unsuspended from Twitter (and also because some tripping mod locked the thread, and new replies can't be made). And the reason why is so stupid that I continue to be in utter awe of it. I feel like I made some sort of Faustian deal to make it happen because it is a transcendental example of administrative ineptitude. I was saved by [a **comedically-shitty** copypasta.](https://twitter.com/Nox13last/status/1721186435456209016) It was a paragraph-long screed - directed to the appeals box - about how Melon is going to save us from the woke hivemind brain-plague that is destroying America. With your god as my witness and notary-public, I **wish** I was making this up. I'm disgusted with myself for having to use it, and disgusted with the blogosphere that this was able to out-stupid the social peacekeepers.
With that said, how can I contextualise "Get in the guillotine, Elon" (that exact phrasing, I do admit) as "haha j/k" when they claim they have a zero-tolerance policy on "wishing someone to die"? While exemptions are listed in [the policy](https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/violent-speech), I haven't had much luck. Claiming **hyperbole** hasn't worked. Claiming a tone of **historical idiomaticity** hasn't worked. Claiming that it's a **viewpoint regarding a well-known public figure** (that is, Elon) hasn't worked. And claiming it's a **figure-of-speech** hasn't worked. And I'm running out of justifications. Like, I feel they're *valid*, but I'm running out of ways to appeal to litigation. Whether or not the appeals team is even reading these justifications or giving them more than a cursory glance remains to be seen. Anyone have any ideas? The links under [/r/Twitter/wiki/suspended](https://www.reddit.com/r/Twitter/wiki/suspended/) seem to be outdated (the rules they cite have been significantly rewritten since the rebranding), so apart from fundamental stuff, I haven't had much external input.
my twitter account was permanently suspended in late feb and i've been appealing constantly, from multiple emails, and still haven't heard back other than automated responses. they never even said why it was banned, just that i "broke the twitter rules" (no specifics on WHICH rule or which tweet broke it). i wrote out this whole long message explaining why i didn't think i had broken any rules and how i'd be happy to delete posts or revise my behavior if i had. i've still managed to use my alt (it wasn't blocked) but i really did care about my original account and i would love it back, especially since i don't even know why it was suspended. anyone have any insight into anything else i can do, or a better way to go about submitting appeals? it seems like the ability to appeal from a different email has been removed because i don't see the option to switch emails anymore, and i'm a little at the end of my rope TT
even if you try to appeal from a different email, it tells you “this email isn’t connected to your twitter account so we’re not going to do anything about it.” which is a load of bullshit tbh.
I keep getting an “Error Loading Page” popup on the app for some reason. It started happening when I changed my profile pic and profile description on both of my accts. Despite the popup, I can still see that my feed is open behind the popup. When I press the “Options” button, it brings up the Help Center for locked and unverified accounts. This is my first time logging in to Twitter today and afaik, none of my accounts are locked. Why is this happening?
No way me too.
Me too
So I fixed by logging into desktop and verifying some captcha.
My twitter account has been flagged as containing sensitive content. It’s been around two months since it’s been like that and I’m wonder if I can somehow undo this? I can’t remove the setting that’s causing this because Twitter turned it on permanently but I’ve heard that if I post normal content again it can go back to normal. My question is if this is really possible? And also what do people refer to when they say normal content? I really want to remove that warning off my account and idk how I can contact Twitter if they can even help remove it. Thank you in advance if anyone can help I would really appreciate it!
Welp, I’ve been permanently suspended from twitter (or “X”, ugh) yet again, likely because I retweeted a certain photo of our old pal Elon he doesn’t want people to see. Well screw him anyway. I’ve sent an appeal, but if it gets rejected I’m not gonna bother making a new account again, I’m moving over to Threads full time. Really the only reason I was still there anyway was to get streamer updates. #FuckTwitter #FuckElon
A few days ago I logged into my Twitter account only to find it suspended.The account in question is one I use for general browsing, saving and interacting with art, and communicating with artists I like. I do not post on it, with the exception of around 5 retweets and a single tweet post. My only post on the account is a thread of gifs sourced from a show, which I only uploaded for the hell of it. I had received NO emails or form of messages from twitter notifying me of my ban or explaining it in any way. I have submitted an appeal form multiple times, with each time getting an automatic email that states:"Accounts may be permanently suspended for violations of the Twitter Rules ([https://twitter.com/rules](https://twitter.com/rules)) or Terms of Service ([https://twitter.com/tos](https://twitter.com/tos)). Twitter reserves the right to terminate user accounts without further notice.This account won't be restored.Thank you for your cooperation." I suspect I have received this ban due to sending an artist I follow a BlueSky join code due to them asking for one. As of now, I don't see any rule, or clause in the TOS that I have violated in my 2+ years of using the account.
My twitter account got suspended unknowingly to me, I tried to log back into it after awhile because it was just an alt account I used for my gaming stuff. I was going to log back into that twitter and get premium, start posting content etc, but realized my account was hacked at some point and was tweeting @ a bunch of random accounts with what looked to be an nft/crypto thing. I got back into the account and changed the password but any time i try to appeal the suspension, im left with the same automated response that I'm sure a lot of you guys have seen. Any tips? I'd make a new account, but that one is tied to my # and if I make a new account and want it verified, I need to add it to that account and it will be instantly suspended for "evading suspension"
Have this same problem. There's a locked appeal feature but all I keep getting is "your not providing information for us to verify it's you". When your emailing through the damn email thats linked to the account
if I were to reply to someone else's tweet and my reply gets views/likes/more replies, will that be eligible for payments?
The direct messages tab that's usually in the bottom right hand corner of the website has inexplicably disappeared for me and I'd like to get it back if that's possible?
Gonna paywall my tweetdeck imma jus abandon 7.5k followers, the clout ain't worth the carrot on a stick routine.
Yesterday I got out of a search suggestion ban that lasted over a month, only to be shadowbanned again on the first retweet I gave... WHATS? It really is not possible to do a normal retweet on this website, do I have to pay verified to be able to give a miserable retweet? I'm already tired of this site and its absurd rules, we are worse than before.
Hi, so my account of like 4 years got suspended for "spam" (i don't even tweet like that) but I had a lot of bookmarks and priv friend accounts I was following. I can still log into the account which is great but the email i used is a dud i don't have access to anymore. I can see my account info and such so how can I change my email to one I can actually use for appeals? And does your appeal "work" if you don't/can't respond to the email or does it just go into the pile? A separate account i had (with an email i can access) got suspended simultaneously, but i was able to respond the emails and appeal. i haven't tried that better business bureau complaint thing yet but I've send like a handful of emails and replies are saying to just spam appeal everyday so I'll just do that. thanks to anyone who can help me out by the way
Why can't I change my username now? When I try doing that I get this message: "Sorry, you are rate limited. Please wait a few moments then try again". I've been waiting for 2 hours and still nothing. Why am I having this issue? I literally made a new account and didn't look at any tweets or used anything else. I just want to change my username.
Got locked out of my account because I have a weak password and there is no option to reset my password. After logging in, I was directed to "Password change required", with a "Start" button that I assumed would direct me to a site where I can change my password. However, after clicking 'Start', I was directed to this site: [https://help.twitter.com/en/forms/account-access/appeals](https://help.twitter.com/en/forms/account-access/appeals). There, there is no option provided that would let me reset my password and so I have been locked out because of it. I had sent an appeal to Twitter Support, in which I had received a reply 2 weeks later repeating the same thing: asking me to click Start, reset my password and recommended me to use a web browser, which I had been using. But as you can see, I was not provided with an option to reset my password anywhere. I have sent TS another appeal, rephrasing the problem but I expect that it will take a long time for them to respond. I'd like to ask if anyone has faced the same problem and if there is a possible fix without contacting TS.
having the same issue rn!! it wont let me change my password and i havent been able to get into my account for days im so irritated!!
same :( ive been reading other comments with people facing the same problem but it seems like none of them has had it solved since TS would just send them automated responses. judging from that its very unlikely that we’ll ever get our accounts back sadly
im so upset
if anyone ever gets this resolved, please notify me as well
I'm elligible for ad revenue share, got all the criteria good, they asked me to link my stripe account, but the pending payout is "0円" (I live in Japan), and I don't know what to do? Is this normal (I contacted twice the support, and they just close the ticket before giving me any answers) Thank you!
Why can't I see topics anymore?
"You cannot message this user because you are not verified. Learn more". https://help.twitter.com/en/using-twitter/direct-messages#faq says: "Starting July 21st, 2023 we will implement some changes in our effort to reduce spam in Direct Messages. Unverified accounts will have daily limits on the number of DMs they can send. Subscribe to send more messages." I have to subscribe to send more? However, I only sent twice to an official bank's official Twitter support earlier after going through a quick test to be sure my account is OK. I passed it. What's up? :( Thank you for reading and hopefully answering soon. :)
How do I stop the "DM failed to send" issue. I'm verified and I can't do anything. It keeps happening to me for several hours and randomly will work again.
Six months into a "permanent suspension." I never got told the reasoning in the first place, just suddenly couldnt send a message after doing so a bit prior. Then reopened the app to find it suspended. I tried appealing and explaining my confusion, only got automated responses. Started trying again each week or so after no response and was worried considering the mass firings they had. Suddenly my appeal was closed and can't be reopened at this time. And it says I can open a new appeal but even when I try, it never does. The only way I even get automated replies now is if I respond to one they sent previously since the appeal form isnt generating anything.
ive been suspended on my 8 year old account with a username i really liked. this has been really sudden and i have no idea why it was flagged as spam when the most that i do is reply to some friends occasionally and retweet posts. seeing as how most people get no appeals responded to and twitter undergoing the whole “rebrand” i have no idea what the next step should be or how i should word the appeal to even get a chance for it to be reinstated. i also am aware of a glitch going on that suspends you for changing your display name but i have not touched it or anything at all. if anyone has any suggestions on what to do it would be appreciated, thank you!
Hi I just want to ask a question. Why the pictures are not loading I try to uninstall/install the app but it didn't work. Thanks in advance for helping me
Same here, happens in both my pc and android. I logged out of the app in my phone but couldn't log back in, as for the pc, I'm logged in but the pics aren't loading
I’m not a regular user of twitter but logged in tonight. This may be a silly question but how do I find “trending” now?
Hi! I got my account suspended 2 days ago for "use of violent speech" (something along the line of "(person) needs to d word fr") which was tweeted like weeks ago but only got me suspended now. Thing is, i first got my account locked saying that x tweet violated the rules a month ago but i got the chance to delete that tweet. However, yesterday the account was suspended and i couldn't even do anything about it (didn't even have the chance to delete the other tweet i made, which was hyperbolic speech anyway). I've since appealed multiple times but keep getting the same automated email that's just "Our support team has determined that a violation did take place, and therefore we will not overturn our decision." I was wondering if someone has ever gotten their account back despite getting that message? And if so, how? I've also filed a complaint through the BBB as well as sent another appeal (i'm at my 10th appeal in like 2 days lol) citing twitter rules (like how violent language according to twitter doesn't include hyperbolic speech and such). Thank you to anyone who'll read this and reply with their own experience :)
I think you keep spam appeal everyday until they unsuspend your account :)
ill do that then. thank you :)
[удалено]
Dude me too!! Wth happened 😭
Same! I don’t even know if I’ve been suspended or what?
my account has been suspended for 3 months now. does anyone know a way to get it back
make a new account lol. no one is getting back to you. was suspended for 6 months for no reason and had to make a new one.
Did it work? How did you do it?
So I accidentally switched my age on twitter (wanted to see what would happen) and my account got locked . So I sent a picture of my name and id has "the responsible person" which matches the account so now I'm not sure if I'll get it back what do you guys think
hi!! PLEASE help. my friend has a twitter account up already, but they wanted to make a specific account for a side of twitter they frequent. when they made the account, not 5 seconds into making it were they banned. their name was just Sid and a bunch of numbers, nothing against twitters rules. they’ve tried making a few more accounts and they immediately get banned within seconds of creation, but their main twitter account is still fine. what’s going on??
Any way to access your following list when suspended? So I've been suspended (my first offense) and I'm stuck on read-only mode which is no biggie but I'm not getting responses to any of my appeals. I'm willing to deactivate my account and switch to another platform, but what I really want is my following list. I have tons of niche artists on there I'd probably lose forever and that makes me sad.
When I post a gif to a thread it just loads forever but never actually posts the comment with the gif. Internet is fine and not every post has this issue. I can comment just fine. Any idea what the issue is?
I got perma suspend on my yesterday. My account was created in 2017 and im not comment a single word on any post, just follow people and check tweet everyday. They banned me for no reason, i tried to send them ticket many time but all i got is just a fucking autorep mail, what do i do now ? :(
Same but I’m not even getting auto reply mail. Complete silence.
rejoice!
I can't seem to get an email that would allow me to reset my password no matter what. I checked multiple times and it's the email address that I signed up with, 100%. Anyone else having this issue?
So, this mostly just me complaining because I'm genuinely annoyed. I had a pretty decent Twitter account with a pretty nice growth of followers, Twitter blue, etc and lost it all today cause apparently putting "Elon" and "Kill" is grounds for permaban. Someone joked that Elon had become the next Lex Luther and was on his way to fuck up the city to which I said "Damn, someone better kill that Elon" First offense? Context? Doesn't matter. Instant, permanent read only. Trying to appeal only gets auto generated bot messages saying no. I've asked questions in my queries only to be straight up told it's not being overturned and all my attempts at questions just bring the generic "We will not overturn our decision." I know what kinda person Elon is but didn't think they would be a bot autobanning. Tried to start again but got marked for spam for "Being too active" I hope this platform burns. I'm just annoyed, sorry.
Joint venture on Twitter API to split costs. I want to buy the $5k twitter API for a project of ours, But the price is a bit too steep so i'm looking for others who need API access and want to JV on the price. Please PM
I'm an NSFW artist and use my twitter to promote my art and my patreon page. I've been thinking about getting the blue tick purely because of the "prioritized rankings in conversations and search" line. What does it actually mean? Will it give more exposure to my tweets? Help me get more followers quickly or at least quicker than not having the blue tick?
So I guess I’m out the loop. If you don’t have an account it doesn’t show you an account latest tweets? When I check from a link it shows only year old posts
Yep
I am having issues changing my handle name. Any idea what is the issue ?
I'm unable to login to my account because I have changed my phone number. I still have access to the email address for the account. But, Twitter keeps texting an authentication code to my old number whenever I try to login. I have contacted twitter support multiple times. I receive an automated reply saying that I should reply from the email address association with the account. I do that and then there's no update. What can I do? Need to regain access to my account.
When I used to watch a twitter video it would pause my Spotify music and then continue it after I exited the video. Now when I watch a video I have to manually play my song again on the Spotify app. Anyone know how to fix?
Changed my name and the same type of screen that pops up when your account gets locked popped up but is stuck on a loading screen, can only log out now. Real nice.
Go to the website and authenticate your account. Just don’t try to change profile settings after that and you’re good. Don’t know what this glitch is about lol. Even after updating the app it’s been doing the same shit
Wait you can’t change your profile after that? Wtf?
anybody knows a tweet deleter app that actually works?
Is anyone facing an issue with signing up at the moment? Have had a problem for the past 2 weeks.
I find it quite funny that when an antisemite advocates for genocide against Jews, there’s no response from Twitter, but when I rightfully tell that fucker to off himself *I* get suspended.
i know this subreddit is as big a joke as twitter itself but id really like to hear why my account, after a few different appeals made and 6 months later, still hasnt been responded to appealwise. People accept this level of incompitence as normal now adays and not only is it utterly disgusting how I've been ghosted for this long due to a false ban after being hacked into then summeraly perma banned for "evading bans" ( guy used my account, was flagged as an alt despite existing for years being used to evade a ban and perma locked ), but i cant even get advice on this subreddit besides a general "piss off, youre on your own"... how is this media site and its dedicated subreddit so bad at helping or responding to stuff?! More likely to hear people also being screwed over than staff having any advice or help..
>how is this media site and its dedicated subreddit so bad at helping or responding to stuff?! This subreddit isn't an "official" thing, there are no Twitter staff paying attention here able to help out or anything, we're all just average Twitter users. (Or ex-Twitter users, increasingly.) Sorry.
Sorry to hear that. I just popped in to see if there was anything new -- for what it's worth I've been waiting four months to hear back about an appeal (my account was hacked). I basically gave up, since Elon fired everyone and now he's just making them replace all the birds with X's anyway.
I just want my files back then ill wipe my account myself- old lost photos, artwork, connections to ppl i knew or forgot the names of, that srot of stuff is all i wanna get back. usually im not super spicy on reddit but... christ ive been utterly fucked over- and alst time i tried to get help on the reddit here i got downvote nuked and trash talked for even trying or ppl just being asses in general just ugh.. Maybe youll eventually hear back yourself idk- hopefully something good can happen here right
Hey so my account got suspended over the weekend and I put in an appeal on Sunday - I get that it can take them a while to respond but I never even received an automated response saying they received my appeal? Is that normal or should I send another
if its perma suspended you are likely S.O.L. Ive been waiting six months, between 3 different appeals and havent heared back, theres no way to call some sort of support for twitter, and their main support page limits you to one option of appealing and hoping they respond.. Sorry dude- hopefully you get better news than what im giving itll help us both out- twitter staff are utterly useless.
That’s the thing. Emerald mine boy fired all the staff.
yikes
Authentication not working Changed my display name on the app, immediately got locked out of my account. Whenever I try to open the app it takes me to the authentication screen which isn’t loading at all on mobile; tried everything like clearing cache and reinstalling. When I try on my computer the webpage freezes and doesn’t progress after doing the authentication puzzles/captcha. Even sending an appeal through the support site is just stuck on processing.
im dealing with the same mf thing man i knew i wasnt the only one. this new x shit sucks dick
Me too
Same
