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!

Thanks Cassey. I feel encouraged. I am already at the point of giving up on Etsy. It was so hard to open the shop, and then just a week or so after it opens, they suspended my account.

Hello, we had set up a private internet connection for my friend's store. However, his store got suspended. The internet connection (modem) we had was dynamic IP, which means its IP address changes every time it's turned off and on. I want to open my own store. Would it be a problem if I use this internet connection on a different computer?

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.

I’m a buyer not a s Ellet an Di just tried to buy something and I’ve been suspended. No email no notice. And I can’t seem to figure out how to contact support. I’m in a link loop on their help site! Help!! And thank you for this email. You answered so so many questions. I’ll try all this!

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.

Thank you ma, appreciate your effort to help us especially new sellers like me, ma I am confused about the trademark, I have checked some single words trademarks e.g tractor if a single word has a trademark can I still use it like, just want to be nice, have fun with a tractor, tractor pro, tractor expert ever, does if I add another word to it save to use please help to a video about it please, this will help new seller like I and others.

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.

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

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

Any conclusion on the story?

Bottom line is Etsy is too risky.

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 set up a store and it literally got shut down with no email and no recourse. It’s certainly eye opening and now as a consumer, I won’t even be using Etsy anymore . It’s horrendous

I got permanently suspended because I sold 5 items I have no idea what I did wrong I got no email nothing about breaching violations I have no idea why but I’ve appealed so we will see

I've had an Etsy account since 2016 and have only BOUGHT items. (3 times) I have NEVER had a shop to sell items. The last item I bought was in March 2023, and in August 2023 my account was suspended. I appealed and received a response in 24 hrs stating that I don't qualify to have my account reinstated due to "intellectual property policy". I have no idea why

Hi Cassiy. I hope you can see my comment and give me advice because I haven't found an answer anywhere. 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? Can I create another account and try to open the shop again or it may even affect my first shop? Thanks! I would appreciate your help.

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?

Etsy responded within the hour saying I don’t qualify for reinstatement and refused to tell me why. I’m still very upset.

Thank you for all your insight. I was in the middle of setting up my account when they suspended it. After the appeal, they said they can't reverse it. But I still don't understand what I did wrong when I had not finished setting it up. Is there any other remedy? Thanks for your help.

You didn't do anything wrong, it's just that an Etsy employee had a bad day or something. I'm going through exactly the same thing - a permanent ban without any given reason, and knowing that I didn't do anything that violates their policies. Very frustrating.

Hello! i'm a regular buyer, i was trying to purchase something for my wedding but it didn't go through and when i tried again i got a red notice that my account got suspended. 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.. (by the way, i did check the spam, i didn't get any mail from them) I just wanted to buy products for my wedding :(

Hi Cassiy, I wanted to log into my Etsy account and they say the email address is incorrect. Knowing that when I send a message to my email, I receive it, but through Etsy, I do not receive any message, and after one day I am surprised that my email has been closed, I wanted to retrieve it through the phone number. I get nothing. Thanks for your attention.

Hi. I have a listing that says that is item is not available in your region. What does this mean?

Thank you Cassiy, If anyone knows or has experience getting an account permanently suspended? I filed an appeal and they basically told me that they couldnt comment on their decisaion and that there would be no further communication. I cant find what I did wrong I verified everything before posting to make sure it was not trademarked or copywrited. If anyone has any info please lmk :)

I was suspended for no reason. I wasn't given an explanation, nor was I given an opportunity to fix any problems. The thing is, I knit and crochet and all of my designs are my own. I filed an appeal and it was denied in less than 2 hours. I can't recover it. I was with them since 2012. I was actively selling until about the beginning of 2018, and then took a hiatus. I recently reopened my shop and after about 30 items, they decimated my shop.

hello Cassiy, thank you for the advice. I want to ask, what should I write in the appeal? because my account suspended with no reason

This was exactly what I faced some time ago. I appealed many times to no avail. It's sad that the support team doesn't give necessary when we need them. I got mine restored. I still remember that it was XSOLVE.1 who saw me through the process. I suggest you locate them to get yours back

Hi . Today my Etsy account was permanently suspended , it’s saying to policy violations , over due bills or registrations I haven’t met . And also saying that my shop has had more policy violations . You think I can bring my account back ? 😭😭😭

I have had my account for at least a year and just got suspended this weekend. I try to do everything by the book when listing. Then finally went through and saw what the problem was. Somehow I was overdue on a payment I didn't even know existed. Looks like now that I paid it, I'm good now. I heard about them charging certain shops to open them up and I'm guessing this is what this was but why me when I've had the shop open for a long time. Maybe it is something else but I know this is what I heard about just a few days ago

That’s wild! So glad you’re all good now but scary to have that happen for sure!

I just tried this and got an email back saying it was non monitored email and to go to the Help Center. Is that just a generic message?

you can use onesie as long as its a gerber made onesie.. its if you use it with one that isnt gerber, but you can totally get ACTUAL GERBER onesies, put your design on them and sell them as onesies... since that is exactly what they are.

@@CassiyJohnson yeah VERY good example, because most people do not know about that, its like kleenex, some people assume thats just the name of the thing..

Hi! I hope you can help me. I'm trying to set up etsy shop and I do not have credit card because I hate debts. I only buy what I can using the money that I have. 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??? Thank you!
