    Subject Line - Shop Suspension For FakeStore
    Hello,
    I opened my Etsy store this week, Fake Store and now it has been suspended. I will be selling Print on Demand products using Printify that I create completely myself. I read through Etsy’s policies and terms of use and do not see anywhere that I have violated the terms of use. Can you please take a look at my shop to see if it is eligible for reinstating? Thank you so much for your time and this opportunity to start my own small business.
    Thank you,

    I literally opened my store up last Wednesday. Made my first sale and immediately got suspended without an email communication. I put in an appeal stating I had no idea what I did wrong. I had to search for myself on what the possible issue could have been. I had to further verify my bank info to receive the deposit and all that Jazz. I put in the code and waited about 2 more days and on Sunday in the evening my shop was back up and running! Two hours later, my account was suspended again after publishing more items that don’t violate policy, I woke up Monday morning to an email stating that my account was now permanently suspended with no specific reason given. This is an absolute nightmare. Trying to get in touch with customer service is literally a joke. No one can tell me what I did wrong, but I’m suspended. Such a notable company, with lack of customer service is alarming. I appreciate your kind words of encouragement. This whole situation pushed me to build my own website. Maybe in the future I’ll try back with Etsy 🤷🏾‍♀️. Thanks Cassidy! You are awesome!

      Update everyone! Earlier last week I received an email from Etsy finally responding to my pleas and stated that my shop was suspended in error and was reopened. I’m back up & running on Etsy, but will continue with my website as well.
      I guess it takes about a month to look into their error.

    You must be psychic. I am a website professional and decided to open an Etsy shop for selling tech-related POD stuff to see if stuff sells before launching a website to do it. I was happily adding products via Printify and watching ALL of your videos when Boom - I was suspended. Then I searched for a video from you for this topic and didn't find anything but Boom again - here it is!! I have checked everything you listed as well as other Etsy sellers and I can't figure out what I might have done. So thank you for this! I guess I just wait now. Bummer.

I do not offer free shipping on my product, and my first customer just paid 6 dollars for shipping. When I go to print out my Etsy shipping label it costs me $3.59. Does this 3.59 come out of my profit or does it come out of the extra shipping cost that my customer paid? Basically where is the shipping money that my customer is paying going? Thanks

    I checked a slogan for a t shirt design on the USA trademark checker and a company has it as a trademarked name. Does the fact that my slogan is part of a design with illustrations and the company trademark is just a text name make any difference or can I still be liable to infringement?
    My design isn’t published, just in draft.
    I read the company trademark descriptor and it is just block text. I guess I’m wondering if it has to be exact to be infringing or it differences make it still viable.

    Hi Cassidy. Thank you for posting this video. I have opened an Etsy account for items we make with our laser. The products are completely original and are not in the banned section. The very next day I was informed by the big red banner that the account was suspended and there was a button that offered a option to file an appeal. The questions were generic stating that the name of the account, my name etc.
    The next day I was given an email stating the account does not qualify for reinstatement. Do you think I should just keep on trying to appeal this decision? I can be annoying like that, that's no problem! Thanks in advance.

    How do I connect my banking information to PLAID partner? As far as I know Etsy does not have a direct integration with PLAID or provide an option to connect your banking information through PLAID. Therefore, connecting your banking information to Etsy using PLAID is not a supported method. All what I did is selecting the payment method I prefer and followed the on-screen instructions to enter my banking information. That's All. I hope you answer this matter because my account was permanently suspended and I need to know if there was something related to that PLAID thing that I've missed

I had a store opened for 2 weeks, got 1 sale. Then opened a second store to sell different things. Didn't list anything yet. BOTH accounts got suspended a few hours later... Never received an email explaining why. Sent an appeal for one of the stores, got an automated message right after saying I was permanently suspended...

    My account got suspended and the appeal was closed with permanent ban, stating that no further details and communication will be possible.

I opened my second Etsy shop two days ago, and paid 15 USD fee that Etsy started charging when you open an Etsy shop (I think it started this month) and I realised it was suspended yesterday, so l appealed it and within 24 hours they sent me a message that they reviewed my case and I won't be able to get it back without further explanation 🙁. Is it possible to get a refund of this fee knowing that I got this shop suspended without being able to upload any listing or even set up my shop?

    I just created a store, got banned, didn't get told why, I appealed and got permanently banned, still don't know why. Which led me here. I'm sure I didn't violate anything. I tried what you said and used the email address and got a reply saying the inbox wasn't monitored. Ie. They won't read it and do anything because they won't see it. Where on earth can I go from here? They said any other accounts associated with me would be suspended too and I'd never be able to even buy from Etsy again. I've had a personal account for buying for 10 years, and another store for a year. Are they both going to get suspended too? No idea who I can even ask about this seeing as they don't monitor their own support email address!

    I saw another video about the horrors of being suspended... The shop was doing well, the person quit their day job to do Etsy full-time, got suspended, and then they were really in a pickle. This video has set my mind at ease somewhat. My goal is to make an income where my wife and I can both quit working full-time AND actually retire (we are both in our late 60's). Your video has been VERY helpful. Thanks!

      I actually have had very similar fears for a long time because of stories like that but it's been three years and I'm still kicking! I think you really need to do some things wrong to get kicked off. But also an important reminder not to put all of your eggs in any one basket! That's why I have a mockup digital download store and make videos here on RUclips, that way I have multiple incomes coming in just in case anything ever happens to any of them

The thing is that i didn't get any email explaining why or how to restore it! When i start searching it only appears that shops accounts and sellers account normally get suspended, and any help that etsy provide on the page is for those accounts, but im just a regular account, never sold anything or have any listings. The email that you provided didn't work so i have no one who can help me. i tried for the appeal but i'm not even eligible for that..

    Yesterday I received an email that my account was permanently suspended. I had no prior warnings or violations. I opened my shop about a month ago and had a handful of orders with no issues. I have not violated any terms and the email offered no explanation as to what I did wrong. I sent an appeal and received a generic canned response in less than 24 hours of filing my appeal that my appeal was denied. They also stated they would not reconsider or respond back any further on it.
    I am at a loss as to what to do as I feel like this must be a mistake and they didn't really review my case before rushing to send a generic template response with no reason given for my suspension. Has anyone else dealt with this? Is there anything else I can do to have them further review this and at the very least give me an explanation as to why I am being permanently banned?

    Can I use my bank debit card instead for the billing information? I've watched a couple of youtube vids that they are able to use credit or debit card for the billing information in setting up acct. but right now when I am filling information in that section, there is only the mention of Credit Card. Can I assume that I can use Debit card for that???

I submitted an appeal and got an immediate email response that said my account was permenately suspended, but I can still log into my account and it still says that they are reviewing my appeal. I am not sure if I should send the email or just wait, what should I do?
