I setup a Twitter account to go with a new Substack I was creating. I’ve posted 1 Tweet and followed 5 people. Account is locked.
I can’t post. I can’t follow anyone. The profile doesn’t show up in search. If you visit it directly you see a warning.
I get a message to try later because they think the account is automated. I try with every browser I know. I install the mobile app and try from there.
Changed my password per their instructions. Nothing.
Verified my phone number. Nothing.
Verified my email. Nothing.
Setup 2FA. Nothing.
I filled out the form that you’re supposed to complete when your account is locked and they say they’ll respond in a few days. A few days later I get a note with some instructions that don’t work, so I reply to the note. An automated message come back that the ticket is closed and to open a new ticket.
As a last resort I paid for Twitter Blue…and I still can’t tweet. On the invoice I got from Twitter it had a support email address that any issues are supposed to go to…so I replied to my invoice (which goes to that address). It comes back with a message that the email address isn’t checked and I should submit a support form.
I have no idea what else there is to do short of setting up a website full of DOGE coin stuff to try to get Elon Musks attention.
