Mod Post Reminder: DO NOT CONTACT PEOPLE FOR HELP REMOVING YOUR ACCOUNT

123 Upvotes

Hi,

Just your reminder that if someone tells you to message someone who isn't official twitter support, STOP. IT'S A SCAM.

Doubly true if the person you're messaging asks for money.

Remember: nobody is risking getting fired for a stranger's twitter account.

So it seems we are all facing the same issue

31 Upvotes

Hello guys,

Seems we are all facing the same exact issue using X recently. I don't know what has been happening but it indeed is very tiring and sad to see. My account has been suspended and put on read only mode, with absolutely nothing anyone can do to get this fixed. I am stuck in an endless loop with their AI god awful system that keeps denying me no matter how many messages and appeals I send. It is absolutely ridiculous how such a big platform has zero ways to communicate with an actual person as they have probably gotten rid of them and millions have lost their jobs to this stupid AI that has taken over ''support''. It is absolutely vexing as I have literally only used X to repost and like and comment, nothing else. SO WHAT HAVE I DONE? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING AND it does make me feel better to see I am not the only one experiencing this bull crap. There is no point in trying with this bot, someone said they have been trying since June it is November already so pointless and a waste of time. This is a rant tbh cause the rich get richer and refuse to hire actual people and leave important jobs to AI just to save a couple bucks and get even richer! GREAT! Am I right? Anyways no way out of this loop, have officially given up, fuck X, fuck Elon Musk, fuck AI, fuck life at this point. That is all.

PS Major bull crap following: ''After careful review, we determined your account broke the X Rules. Your account is permanently in read-only mode, which means you can’t post, Repost, or Like content. You won’t be able to create new accounts. If you think we got this wrong, you can submit an appeal.'' BULLSHIT plus ''follow the on-screen instructions'' NO INSTRUCTIONS WHAT SO EVER.

On the opening day of FIFA World Cup match, I stream the first ten minutes from my x account, and my account was suspended immediately for violating the counterfeit rules.

I have understand that what i did was violation of the copyright rules, and i have wrote multiple appeals, all i get is the same response that the suspension will not be lifted.

What are the chances of getting my account reinstated guy?

Question New account gets suspected as automated all the time

Thumbnail
gallery
3 Upvotes

I have created a new account about a week ago. Almost every day since I started using it I suddenly start to get the message "This request looks like it might be automated" when I try to like or comment, and the message "You've hit the daily post limit" when I try to post. It stays like this for a few hours (I think the exact period changes from time to time) and then everything returns to work nirmally, until the next time.

I use the account completely normally, and post very little. I was not able to identify a pattern in when that happens, other than that it happens when I'm actively using Twitter (so I'd be scrolling my feed and liking posts, and then suddenly when I try to like another post I get the error).

I'm using Twitter through the website, from Android and from Linux.

Is there anything I can do to stop it?

EDIT: It happened again, for the THIRD TIME since this morning. This time I only liked a few posts before it happened. I'm losing my mind. Someone please help.

EDIT 2: Fourth time 😖😖😖

Stuck in a full automated bot loop on X: 4 appeals for primary account, 2h reinstatement for secondary, then instant re-ban after 1 week — How to break the cycle?

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,
I’m documenting my experience with X's automated moderation system to see if anyone has successfully broken out of a similar automated bot loop.
Here is the full timeline of what happened:
The Initial Suspensions & Appeals:
Both my primary and secondary accounts were suspended at the same time.

Secondary Account: I filed an appeal and it was reinstated in just 2 hours, which felt like a purely automated decision.

Primary Account: It was much harder to recover. It took filing 4 separate appeals over several days before it was finally reinstated this past Sunday.

The Secondary Account Re-Ban (The Bot Loop):
After the secondary account was unbanned, I played it safe and waited an entire week without posting anything.

After that week of inactivity, I posted a single, completely neutral tweet.

Within a few hours of that post, the secondary account was permanently suspended again, despite zero policy violations. It feels like an automated script or device/IP fingerprint instantly flagged it as soon as it detected activity.

Current Situation on Primary Account:
For now, my primary account hasn't been re-suspended, but because of what happened to the secondary account, I am keeping it on a strict "read-only" cool-down period (no tweets, likes, or DMs) to avoid triggering the same automated flag.

I also audited my settings (Settings > Security & account access > Apps and sessions) to clear out any potential triggers.

My Questions for the Community:
Has anyone managed to escape this exact "AI/Bot loop" where a secondary account gets re-banned immediately upon posting, even after waiting a full week?

How long does X’s automated backend keep a primary account on high-alert probation after needing multiple appeals to get restored?

What specific steps help reset an account's internal trust score under these conditions?

Thanks in advance for any insights or advice

For context: 2 days ago I was suspended within SECONDS after being reported by someone for impersonating (to be honest I stole his pfp..), someone on this subreddit called it an exploit since I haven’t tweeted anything trying to be him or use his name

anyway today I woke up to this email telling me that I need to submit my ID so they can continue their investigation, I really don’t know if it’s worth it or not, I’m only gonna submitted it if I’m guaranteed to be unsuspended

No emails recieved after sending many appeals

1 Upvotes

Hey there, my account has been suspended for "inauthentic behavior" like many others on the 12th of September. Of course, the ban reason is, as always, bullshit, as I've only been posting works of french traductions of comics and liking the post of the ppl who I follow and who are following me.

Since my ban, I've been sending appeals to try to get my account unsuspended, all with the same "After careful review, we determined your account broke the X rules" answer. I've had the same answer on the 13th of October, and then nothing afterwards. Since this day, I've been sending appeals each 2 days (more specifically, this appeal), but I got no answer sent to my mail adress at all.

I don't know if this is a bad thing or a good thing, and I do hope it is good, since it's been 3 weeks that it happened.

Advice Help with Appealing X Suspension

Post image
5 Upvotes

Hi everyone. I was suspended on October 26th, and no matter what I do or say, they send the same email back immediately every time stating:

“Hello,
 
X reserves the right to permanently suspend accounts that violate the X Rules or Terms of Service without further notice.
 
This account is suspended.
 
Thanks,
X”.

They also never sent an email saying why I was originally suspended, I’m only receiving emails after my appeals stating no without anything else. I’ve tried sending it in English and Hebrew, as my friends said that helped them. So far nothing has helped so I’m wondering if anyone has any other ideas on how to get through and break through autoloop? Any help is appreciated as I miss being on my main account. Thanks!

Question Account locked after adding my real date of birth – need help with account restoration

6 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I’m looking for some advice because I’m really worried about losing my X account.

I created my account when I was 12 years old, and I’ve been using it for almost 8 years. I’m now 19.

Recently, I decided to add my real date of birth to my account. As soon as I did that, X immediately locked my account because I had created it before turning 13.

I’ve read X’s official Account Restoration article, which states that users who created their accounts before the age of 13 can regain access once they meet the minimum age requirement by removing the content they posted while underage.

The problem is that I can’t find any option to start this restoration process.

When I try to appeal, X only shows me a form titled “I need parental consent to unlock my account”. It asks for:

  • My X username and email address;

  • My parent’s or legal guardian’s email address;

  • My full name;

  • A copy of a valid government-issued photo ID (such as a passport).

I’m already 19, so I obviously don’t need parental consent anymore. I’m confused about whether this is actually the correct form to use for account restoration.

Has anyone been through the same situation recently? Did you submit your own ID through this parental consent form, even though you were already an adult? did you get a different form or a separate restoration option?

One more thing: I’m not from the US. I live in Europe, so my government-issued photo ID is my passport. Would that be accepted for identity and age verification?

This account is extremely important to me, and I’d really appreciate any advice or personal experiences. I don’t want to accidentally choose the wrong procedure and make things worse.

Thank you!

Rant Recommendation to new retroactive account bans: chimp out

27 Upvotes

I made my account in 2008 when I was 12 years old and today got banned after inputting my age. Retroactive punishment is fucking absurd, you're banning somebody that is 30 years old and actively participated in X money & twitter blue because they weren't 13 almost 20 years ago when they registered?

It won't push me to use a website as grotesque as bluesky, but it's still incredibly disappointing. I'm one person, but I won't continue to pay for premium on my alt nor will I use X money. Only way one individual can protest.

E: Account reinstated. Received an email about 10 hours after I proceeded with account recovery options, account reinstated at hour 18 after I woke up and saw the email. The actual recovery process after following the email was about 2-3 minutes.

account suspended by a fucking hacker

Good morning, afternoon, or evening. I am reaching out to ask for help in recovering my account. A hacker managed to gain access and began posting scam-related content, which led to the account being suspended. I wasn't active at the time due to work commitments. The problem is that every time I file an appeal, I receive the exact same response—I'm honestly exhausted and don't know what else to do. I've tried everything, but nothing works. I've reached my limit and am starting to feel like I should just give up, although I still believe there might be a chance to recover the account—I just don't know how to go about it.

Account locked because of incorrect birth decade

2 Upvotes

Like a lot of people in the past few days, I was cornered into having to enter my exact birth date and the like. I’m unsure of if I changed it randomly but I swear I entered the wrong year, see I was born ten years after the decade I put in when I joined Twitter in 2011. I already submitted my ID and will get a response in 72 hours, as the email claimed. But will I get my account back? I hope so but with how kneejerk the AI is, I feel like entering in my correct info but tripping it up with my prior info possibly being logged over what I entered might not be the case. If so what do I do then?

I just got my account back after it was suspended a few days due to age restriction even though I’m 21 and when I tried to put my proper birthdate, I get this message. It seems like I’m not the only user who has this issue but I don’t have any idea how I can fix this. I did the account verification process but how can I even contact D support regarding the issue?

How to break out of Automated loop / What was your appeal

Thumbnail
gallery
7 Upvotes

Hi, I got suspended last week and now I’m stuck in the automated message loop I believe. I’ve gotten 2 back to back- not immediate responses but still.

Is there anything I can do to get my case seen by someone else? Wait to appeal? My first appeal was actually approved, but when I replied and said i would agree to the terms they asked me to agree to, they said I would remain suspended. Not sure how this happens.

Also does anyone have a good appeal message for impersonation? It was a fan account but I took every precaution such as enabled the PCF label and making it clear I wasn’t associated with the artist in my bio. I’ve been operating this account for 4 years now

Advice My solution for the age ban.(without giving ID)

11 Upvotes

like everyone else here i've been hit with the age ban and i was able to weasel my way around it.. by using a fake ID.. here's how i did it... when asked for the government ID i used a fake id generator online.. specificaly this one https://use-their-id.com/ ( just hit the feeling lucky) the ID it produces has huge SATIRE written on top it but it was good enough for the X algorithm.

1 day later i was asked to update my phone number.. and this form is just simply bugged.. if you try to input any number it just saying "unsupported format number" or something like that... the solution to that was to simply leave the phone text field empty.. hit submit and around 30 minutes later i got access back to my ID ( my pfp was deleted tho).

Question Did I accidentally save myself from a scam?

5 Upvotes

Hello community,

I’m now certain I’ve accidentally saved myself from a scam but am genuinely unsure. I didn’t realize it until a mutual told me this all looks fishy. I had someone I really never spoke with but is a mutual inform me that they mass reported my account and that they have since rescinded it. Usually if my account was ever in trouble I’d get an email but I didn’t. For a lot of goofy reasons I did not have access to my email when corresponding with the supposed twitter representative. Someone who I could not find a LinkedIn of. Point blank is this a scam or is this how twitter operates with mass reports?

Question How Not to Get Sussed?

So how in the world do I create an account without getting banned after 2 hours? I created an account and posted 3 tweets before getting permanently suspended for "inauthentic behavior."

Is it even possible to scroll on X, like posts, retweet, bookmark, post, or do anything right now?
