What we look at

What We Look at on Every Case

What happened, why it happened, what’s already been sent, who else is exposed and whether it can be won. We check six things on every case before anyone writes a word.

Why it matters

Why Your Next Appeal Has to Be the Right One

A rushed appeal usually makes things worse. Every submission stays on the platform’s record, and a first attempt that contradicts the second damages the case. We build one clear record from the start.

The consultation covers the notice, the account history and what’s already been sent, so your first real submission is the right one. If the case can’t be won, you hear it now, before you’ve paid for it.

Consultation questions

Consultation FAQs

Don’t see your question? Send us your notice and we’ll answer it directly.

What should I do before I appeal an account suspension?

Before you appeal an account suspension, save the exact notice, read which policy it names and collect what you already sent along with any replies. Pull the account data around the date it happened and list every account linked to you. Do not file until you know the real cause, since the platform reads every later appeal against the first.

Why was my appeal denied?

An appeal is usually denied because it did not answer what the platform actually flagged. Common reasons are a generic template, a root cause that does not match the account data, missing proof such as invoices or identity documents, or a story that contradicts an earlier submission. The denial message often points to the gap that needs fixing.

Should I send another appeal after a rejection?

Sending another appeal right after a rejection usually hurts more than it helps. Platforms read each new appeal against the ones before it, so a rushed second attempt that repeats or contradicts the first can stall the case. Read the denial, fix the exact gap it names and submit once with new proof. Get a free assessment first.

How many times can I appeal a suspension?

How many times you can appeal a suspension depends on the platform and the type of action. Some allow repeated appeals, some limit them, and some actions, like a Walmart termination, cannot be appealed at all. Since every attempt stays on the record, treat each appeal as if it may be your last real chance.

Can a suspension on one account affect my other accounts?

A suspension on one account can affect your other accounts when the platform links them through shared details like identity, bank, address, device or business information. On Amazon, a new or second account tied to a deactivated one can be deactivated too, along with its funds. List every linked account before you file anything.

What documents do I need for a suspension appeal?

The documents for a suspension appeal depend on what the notice names. Authenticity cases need supplier invoices, identity cases need government ID and business records, and performance cases need order and carrier data. Every document must be genuine and match the account details exactly. Never create or edit a document to fill a gap.

What is a suspension consultation?

A suspension consultation is a review of your case before you file anything. We go through the notice, the account history, what was already sent and who else is exposed, then tell you what really set it off, how hard it is and what to avoid while you wait. It covers marketplaces, ad platforms, processors, banks, app stores, creator programs and social media.

Is the suspension consultation free?

The assessment that starts every consultation is free. If your case needs a deeper working session, we confirm the scope and the cost before anything is scheduled. You never pay for something you did not agree to first, and you keep the plan whether or not you hire us after.

Will you tell me if my case cannot be won?

We will tell you if your case cannot be won. If there is no real path to a human reviewer, you hear it before you pay, and where we can, we point you to what would help instead. For some clients, a straight no on day one is the most valuable answer they get.

Can anyone guarantee the outcome of a suspension appeal?

No one can guarantee the outcome of a suspension appeal, because the platform makes the final decision. Be careful with anyone who promises one. What we commit to is the work: an honest look at your case, one clear record from the start and a straight answer on your chances before you pay.
