YouTube: Challenge account bans before they come into effect

Creators on YouTube are getting a very useful update that can even help them financially. Because any exclusions from the YouTube Partner Program that they complain about can, in some cases, be contested before they come into effect.

Anyone who has their account blocked on YouTube as a result of violating the guidelines of the YouTube Partner Program (YPP) has the damage on their own side. There is no income from the videos, and no effort for monetization. This is particularly annoying when it turns out that the penalty, the account blocking for the program, was not appropriate at all. Creators can, however, appeal against such blocks. To prevent such serious cases from occurring in the future, YouTube has a new solution in place.

YouTube lets creators challenge account bans before they happen

The video platform is introducing an option that allows creators to appeal some types of YPP penalties up to seven days before an account suspension takes effect. This is intended to avoid suspensions during an appeal. It could also avoid or at least minimize the loss of revenue if the appeals are successful and the suspensions are unlawful.

In the video of the Creator Insider Channel, a YouTube manager explains that this Complaints procedure is available for a subset of YPP violations. Anyone who files a complaint within seven days of a suspension coming into effect and is rejected cannot complain again. After 90 days, creators can reapply for YPP with their channel. If this period expires, creators can file a complaint within 21 days of the account being suspended. Those who file a complaint early have the advantage that a suspension cannot occur during the review.
