Account deactivated due to "suspicious payment activities"

Hello everyone,

I received an e-mail which noticed me that my account was deactivated / deleted :

Dear ChatGPT customer,

Thanks for your understanding.

I’ve been refunded for an invoice of March (why… now…?) and October.

I don’t know why. The only thing that could be a explaination is that the name I used when I created my account is different from the name related to the credit card I use.

I’ve spent 1 week contacting the support and I have the feeling of talking to a bot, not humans. More, they are UNABLE to tell me exactly what’s going on and why.

I think that there are a lot of people in the same case as me.

I’m on the same boat.
I’m getting the same message from support for more than 10 days: We are unable to reinstate your account at this time; we will investigate further.

No more feedback or support was provided.
