Adobe Stock Account Blocked – Appeal Submitted, Please Share Your Experience

Hello Adobe Stock Community,

My Adobe Stock Contributor account was recently blocked, and I received an email from Adobe Contributor Relations stating that my account had been blocked due to content or activity that may have violated the Adobe Stock Submission Guidelines or Contributor Terms.

I have already contacted Adobe and submitted the official appeal form requesting a review of my account.

I sincerely apologize if I made any mistake. I believe some of my submissions may have been too similar, as I sometimes uploaded multiple variations of similar content. This was unintentional, and I now understand that I need to be much more careful about submitting only distinct and compliant content.

I have spent the past four months working very hard on my Adobe Stock account, so this situation has been very difficult for me. I have asked Adobe to kindly give me one more opportunity. If my account is reinstated, I will carefully review every submission and strictly follow all Adobe Stock guidelines.

I would really appreciate hearing from anyone who has experienced a similar account block and successfully recovered their Contributor account.

My appeal has already been submitted to Adobe. I am simply looking for guidance and to understand whether there is anything else I should do while waiting for their decision.

Thank you very much for your help and for sharing your experience.

Investigations can take a long time. You have a case number and now you wait. Contacting Adobe to request an update can potentially create new numbers and further delay an already long process. You might consider submitting to other sites in the meantime.
