    I don't know. Do I need to contact anyone else? I'm just in panic mode right now lol. I did the contact through mTurk as well. So I probably covered all of my bases.

    monday is a federal holiday. no one will get any money deposited in their bank account. and mturk will probably be slow as molasses because so many other people won't be at work/posting hits on monday, and it's been so slow even on busy days. so we have to do all the turking we need for between now and next tuesday, tonight and tomorrow and the next day.

    I need a pepperoni pizza delivered really bad but now I can't afford it :cries:

    I haven't had this happen. but it seems like you contacted everyone. I hope they fix yours soon! I guess to be proactive you could fax them your verifying stuff. I forget what it is, like your driver's license front and back and something else iirc.

    amazon payments verification fax number 1-206-569-1407

    stuff to fax -

    1. driver’s license or an equivalent government issued Identification Document (ID)
    2. write your first and last name at the top of the page
    3. write the email address associated with your mturk account

    -----------------------

    @YarnAndCats they might or might not ask you to fax these. this way it would be already done.

    I actually do pretty good on holidays. Kids don't have classes and don't live in the town they're from and a lot of turkers are busy partying or something rather than turking.

    I've been on for about 10 years so I kinda feel like they are doing suspensions in batches from longest turkers to newest. I mean, I haven't seen any people that started during the pandemic get the suspension... just my thoughts though, no clue.

    My account is about 5 years old so I don't think it's based on account age. I know plenty of people who have had accounts longer than me who aren't suspended.

    Now if only all these accounts got fixed too. Actually makes me sad seeing so many folks having their accounts dicked down like this for no reason. :( What a dumpster fire of a platform: days-long outages, random account suspensions en masse, and when it actually works it's lagging like it's on a dial-up.
