Hi Mieke I have several twitter accounts and one was suspended back in June this year, I had a similar thing happen in youtube – in both cases it was a slight change in the rules / updated terms that pushed my sites ‘just over the edge’ – with twitter they brought in monitoring auto following / unfollowing – I stopped doing that – but not quick enough for one account. With youtube it was a change in their music licensing rules – which change every other week it seems! Alot of people have been twitter slapped I know – it’s a case of reading the terms – but keeping up with their latest new rules too.

Mieke, the BS continues I see. *sigh*

They have so much going on, the ‘important’ stuff seems to get overlooked (on purpose). They are catering to the BIG investors – the one’s who are prepared to spend big money with them.

My complaints & your complaints do not get rated as being important. I have read their Terms and Conditions and they allow people to break them on a daily basis. Money talks – real people with real issues don’t matter to them.

I am looking for ways to bring these issues to a head and get some clear resolution, but I am sure if I rattle the cage too much, they will suspend my account as well and it won’t be for a valid reason, just their way of shutting me down.

Take a deep breath and continue asking why – you might get lucky and get an answer.

Best wishes always,

Aussie John

Well damn I reckon Mieke I didnt know I had to be the police man for spam mailers!

This totally sucks bad. I reckon I am going to check my twitter and tell them to go to hell. Sounds about right.

UPDATE:
10 days later, and my account is still suspended.
I asked for an explanation through their helpdesk and by email, without any result. My requests are closed on the same day I send them; they don’t even bother to reply.
When sending an email, I get an automated message that tells me to reply to that message if I believe there has been made a mistake. When I do this, no reply comes in…

This must be the worst service ever!

Hi Mieke – Twitter have rules re establishing bulk accounts yet have no way to enforce them. Likewise, their rules re SPAM are wishy washy and don’t get enforced either. If they concentrated on these two areas of concern, Twitter would be a better place to be.

At present, with the bully tactics being applied for no apparent reason to accounts like yours, makes me want to scream FOUL but no one is listening. (

I would be asking for a ‘please explain’ if I were you.

Hi Mieke,

Thanks for the post, I can imagine how you feel being suspended from using Twitter. i’ll definitely will read their terms trying to avoid any suspension.

take care.
