Frequently Asked Questions

Is It Possible to Expedite the Appeal Process?

To expedite your appeal process, please be sure to note that your account is currently suspended. If your account was suspended for aggressive following behaviors, you'll need to confirm that you've removed all prohibited following automation from your account, and will stop any manual aggressive following behavior. You can find information on following automations and permitted following behaviors on the Following Best Practices help page.
