OpenAI suspended my other account

I have two Plus accounts. Subscribed to both through the normal flow on desktop. Paid for both.

This morning, I received an email saying the other account was deactivated.
No reason given.

I only use the account for Codex. Nothing else. I don’t have a clue why the suspended it.

I try the appeal process.
It’s clearly automated and instantly says no.

I try contacting support.
They redirect me to the help center WHICH I CAN NO LONGER USE ON THAT ACCOUNT.
They redirect me to the appeal form WHICH I’VE ALREADY BEEN TOLD IS USELESS TO DO AGAIN.

I cannot get the human support to understand that I need their help.

I’m so incredibly frustrated. This is a flagrant breach of my consumer rights under EU law.

What can I do??

I forgot to add - I can’t even log in here on that other account!!

It is so ridiculous and surreal.

And now they banned this account too!!

What the hell is going on at OpenAI???

Talking to OpenAI support is like talking to the wall.

Their first paragraph is always a restating of exactly whatever you write them.

Then the rest does not relate to the question you have asked them at all.

It’s incredibly frustrating and in the meantime, I am here unable to work because they have stolen my accounts from me.

And now they have rejected the appeal for this account too.

I cannot even check if the subscription is cancelled too or not!

This is madness.

Hey @UpScalp

Can you please share the Case ID here so that I can take a look at your account.

I’m happy to change whatever I need to change to get them back.
I need them for work.

I have no idea what I’ve possibly done to get them suspended.
And because you get completely locked out, I have no way to check if they were hacked.
Or even to check if the subscriptions are still active.

I really don’t want to be paying for something that I don’t have access to.
I have read some people say in other threads that they were charged after being suspended.
Not good.

Thanks for sharing the support ticket.

I am actively working on resolving the issue in the support case you raised. I will go ahead and close this Community thread, and all further communication and updates will take place through support ticket #09238773.
