Why Your Pinterest Account Has Been Suspended

- Click on the link that says, “If you believe this is an error, please click this link to let us know.”
Once you open the link, your appeal will be submitted, and you will see a confirmation message: “Thanks for your appeal.”

- If your account is reinstated, you will receive an email stating:
“We have reviewed your appeal and decided to reactivate your account. We’re sorry for the inconvenience and hope to see you back on Pinterest soon.” - If your appeal is rejected, you will receive an email stating:
“We have reviewed your appeal and decided not to reactivate your account. Please review the Community Guidelines for more detailed information on what Pinterest considers spam.”
