"textContent": "I was banned on June 7, 2026. I appealed immediately and was told my case was “escalated to support specialists.” That was almost three weeks ago. Since then, I have received zero communication from OpenAI. No one has told me what policy I violated, and no one has unbanned me.\n\nI am a paying subscriber. OpenAI acknowledged a mass false-positive ban wave on June 5, yet my account remains banned with no explanation. Three weeks of silence after a ban without reason is unacceptable. OpenAI is proving itself to be an unreliable company that does not care about the dev community.\n\nJust a PSA that you could be banned, not given a reason, and stuck in limbo of “escalated to support specialist”.\n\nAs a dev, make sure you have other coding agents/companies outside of OpenAI ChatGPT/Codex as they could just ban you and never unban you.",
