Hi

My account was blocked and the reason Adobe gave me was :

After reviewing your account, we've noticed some unusual events and/or transactions that are against our terms and submission guidelines".

Then 1 hour later i received another email from adobe support saying my case was resolved. But the problem is my account is still blocked. I have no clue what i did to get blocked. Anyone can help? Thanks.

Nude or vulgar images are not the only subjects that can violate Adobe's guidelines. Multiple accounts, submission of too many similars, infringement of third party rights, use of artists names, and more. I assume you took advantage of the Contact us link you were met with on your dashboard to ask for further details. That is your only option while you wait for Adobe to complete their investigation.

Work on other things while the process completes.

Adobe may temporarily suspend or permanently terminate a Stock Contributor account for any of the following:
1) Suspicious sales or refund activity,
2) They received an official infringement complaint or "take down" notice from a 3rd party.
3) Suspected violation of Stock Contributor User Terms,
4) A technical problem that only Stock Support can fix.

 

Contact Stock Contributor Support: https://contributor.stock.adobe.com/contact

If you don't hear anything within 10 business days (check your spam folder), send a follow-up.

Goodbye & good luck.

What support? If you contacted Customer support, the account will get closed without a resolution because they are not competent for this. So, they will close your support request as soon as they get it.

 

You need to use the link on the blocking screen to contact Adobe Contributor Support. They will answer by mail, so the answer is not life.

 

If you got the answer from Contributor Support, I recommend contacting them (I suppose that a reply is working, if not use the link), to ask in a friendly tone, why your account did not get unblocked after the case's resolution.

No one in the forum can help with account issues, since we are not Adobe employees and do not have access to your account details. You should reply to Adobe directly on the link shown on your Dashboard page to resolve the issue.
