Claude Account Bans, Suspensions and Appeals

A post claims Claude now lists China as a region, supports UnionPay payments, and that some permanently banned Chinese users have successfully appealed.

The author logs three Claude accounts banned within hours of upgrading to Pro or Max, and is now extra careful with IP on the fourth.

A video says an American had their Claude account banned while on a business trip in Shenzhen, with the poster joking that Anthropic treats everyone the same; the post also carries an ad link for KYC verification services.

The poster says banned Claude accounts can now file an appeal, has submitted an unban request himself, and invites others to try and report results.

The author confirms Anthropic's Tibo really left and recalls a Saturday mass Claude ban where a big account got unbanned via DM to Thariq while his own appeal went unanswered.

The post claims Anthropic core employee Thariq was also banned, leaving only a dignified farewell letter, and speculates where he goes next.

The author calls most Claude anti-ban guides survivorship bias, noting their 20x account was banned while a 5x account ran fine for three months.

The author debunks rumors that Claude opened mainland China, supports UnionPay, and unbanning banned users: selectable country, payment icons, and appeals don't mean policy changes.

The author claims heavy Claude usage inevitably reveals your country and gets accounts culled under resource pressure, so using it less is the only real protection.

A seller says Claude signups fail phone verification and SMS-code accounts get banned, so they pitch aged exclusive accounts with original email for reading contracts.

A seller promotes a ¥150 Claude Pro monthly card as low-risk, responding to complaints about paying yet still fearing bans.

A joke post greeting users across industries with jabs at Claude account bans, Codex quota cuts, ad account deaths and bot rate limits.
