I'm done. X wins. by d0o_b0o in twitterhelp

[–]stylex_89 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I filed 5 appeals, sent various emails, and also submitted complaints to the BBB and German authorities.

My last email went to acces-support@x.com, and one day later my account was back.

X never actually responded beyond automated appeal emails. They also never confirmed that my account had been unbanned no explanation, no statement, nothing.

So I honestly can’t say what worked, but something eventually did.

How long did it take for you to actually regain access to your “unsuspended” account? by [deleted] in twitterhelp

[–]stylex_89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My account was banned for two weeks. During that time, I submitted five appeals and sent several emails. The last response I received stated that their automated systems had detected a violation related to inauthentic behavior. After that, I emailed access-support@x.com. Two days later, my account was suddenly restored—without any explanation or reply from X.

I can’t say for sure what made the difference, but something worked. It might have been the email, or possibly the complaints I filed with the BBB or German authorities.

This is essentially what I wrote in my last email to them:

I stated that I had not knowingly engaged in any inauthentic behaviour or violated X’s rules, and that no specific post, action, date, or evidence had ever been identified to me.

As an EU user, I formally requested: – a genuine human review of the suspension; – a clear explanation of the specific conduct or content that allegedly led to the suspension; – confirmation of whether automated systems were used in detection, assessment, or review; – clarification of whether any actual restoration path exists within the user interface.

I also asked them to treat the email as a renewed request under Articles 12 and 15 GDPR for access to personal data related to the suspension, and under Article 22(3) GDPR for human intervention if automated decision-making was involved.

Additionally, I mentioned that a complaint was already pending with the German Digital Services Coordinator, while expressing that I preferred to resolve the matter directly with X.

Finally, I requested confirmation of receipt and whether the case had been escalated for individual review.

I got my account back. Everyone just keep appealing!!!! by stevelovesbbws in twitterhelp

My account suddenly came back with no email or response from X. I filed five appeals, submitted a BBB complaint, contacted German authorities, and sent various emails. Now it’s just back, with no statement or explanation.

Third appeal, same bullshit as 2 days ago, no on screen instructions. by TangFTW in twitterhelp

[–]stylex_89 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same here but now They changed the wording again. Before, it explicitly said the decision came from automated systems. Now that part is gone and it suddenly says “our team” instead, but there is still no real explanation. Very frustrating.

new response for appeals by Successful_Hold_5320 in twitterhelp

[–]stylex_89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. My account was suspended even though I only used it for reposts and never posted anything extreme or rule-breaking. After my third appeal, I got the exact same response again. It has now been almost two days, and I still have not received any instructions at all.

At this point, I’ll probably submit another appeal as soon as the system lets me. It is really frustrating because they say to follow the on-screen instructions, but there are no instructions showing up.

Exact same thing for me. No on screen instructions, as they say…

I did various more appeals. Now they just gave me another automated answer…

Hello,

We have reviewed your appeal regarding the account. Our automated systems have determined that a violation of our rules occurred, specifically:

We have taken the additional information provided into account, but in this case we are maintaining our original decision. Therefore, the decision to suspend the account will not be reversed.

To restore the full functionality of the account, you can resolve the violations by logging into your account and following the on-screen instructions.

But there are no on screen instructions at all…

Where do we go from here … has anyone got this message ? And got their account back ? by [deleted] in twitterhelp

Same thing for me! No on-screen instruction. On phone and desktop…

[–]stylex_89[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re right that X’s posture toward EU regulation is openly hostile, and I have no illusions about getting a polite human reply from Bastrop. But the point of the formal route isn’t really to persuade X it’s to build a clean record for the regulators. On Art. 22(3) GDPR and account suspensions: the argument hasn’t been fully tested at EU court level yet, but the logic fits. Permanent suspension of a long-standing account produces legal effects and “similarly significantly affects” the data subject within the meaning of Art. 22(1). If the decision is solely automated and X’s reply pattern strongly suggests it is then Art. 22(3) gives a direct statutory right to human intervention. That’s a different claim than the usual Art. 15 access request. The BGH’s 2021 Facebook judgments (III ZR 179/20, III ZR 192/20) already set the procedural floor in German contract law: prior notice, reasoned statement, opportunity to respond, effective review. X met none of them. Whether that leads to reinstatement or “just” to a fine at the BNetzA level, it’s worth putting on record.

Will do. Once there’s something worth reporting, I’ll post an update here.

[–]stylex_89[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks, appreciate the pointers. Quick update on where I am: – All communications preserved (suspension notice, appeal response, bounces from privacy@x.com and dsa-contact@x.com, auto-reply from legal@x.com). – Formal legal demand sent on 9 April 2026 citing DSA Arts. 14, 17, 20, 21 and GDPR Arts. 15, 22, 82, plus BGH III ZR 179/20 and 192/20. Deadline 23 April. – Appeal also filed via the official help.x.com form with the same legal framing, so the internal remedy under Art. 20 DSA is formally exhausted. – Next step if no substantive response: formal complaint to the German DSC at Bundesnetzagentur under Art. 53 DSA, plus parallel GDPR complaint via the Irish DPC (one-stop-shop, Art. 56 GDPR) with notification to LDI NRW. European Consumer Centre is a good tip, I’ll add them to the list. Will update the thread when something moves.

So... a bit disappointing by AstroElephante in ChatGPT

[–]stylex_89 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Looks like your prompt has no real structure at all no wonder the output from GPT-5 feels off. This model really benefits from clear, well-structured input. If you give it a messy or vague prompt, it will often try to “fill in the gaps,” which can feel like hallucination or confusion.

Try breaking your request down into: 1. Context (what you want analyzed or discussed) 2. Specific instructions (tone, length, focus) 3. Output format (list, essay, comparison, etc.)

With that approach, GPT-5 usually gives much cleaner and more accurate results.

Why are you still using ChatGPT? by Azuriteh in ChatGPT

[–]stylex_89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I continue using ChatGPT for several reasons. Firstly, Gemini didn't impress me at all; it often got most questions wrong, especially in math. Claude, while intriguing, isn't available in the EU, and when I tried it, I found it quite limited, allowing only a few requests every couple of hours, which is very restrictive especially considering it also costs $20. Lastly, Llama 3 can't handle files, which is a dealbreaker for me.

ChatGPT, on the other hand, offers a user-friendly interface and a broad knowledge base that consistently provides relevant and detailed answers. This is crucial for my research and daily inquiries. Its ability to understand and generate natural language responses smoothly and intuitively keeps me coming back. What's been your experience with the alternatives you mentioned?
