[Hidden-tech] Facebook help

[Steven D. Brewer]

I don't have any experience with "Meta" but Amazon terminated my KDP 
account last fall and said it was permanent. After talking to a number 
of people, they said, basically, keep sending pressing emails to their 
contact. This is the email I sent that got them to actually reverse 
their decision. Again, this is Amazon, not Meta. But I suspect the same 
principles apply:

I have replied to this email, but I would like this erroneous account 
action investigated. From discussions in the author community, I know 
this is something that happens regularly, to small publishing partners 
who are always well within compliance expectations.

While I understand Amazon has an important responsibility to ensure that 
partner accounts are monitored, this kind of sudden closure without any 
history of warnings, etc., is deeply disruptive, and almost certainly is 
being triggered by automated reviews that would not flag the same way on 
human review.

This disruption to my account has cost me sales, interfered with 
scheduled promotions, and caused customer confusion as well. I truly 
hope Amazon is looking at improving how these account reviews take place.

Sincerely,

Good luck!
