Banned after 3 chargebacks – told I could rejoin, now blocked. Help? Hi everyone, I’m looking for advice or experiences from anyone who has dealt with this. A few months ago, Revolut force-closed my account. The trigger was that I submitted 3 payment disputes/chargebacks on the exact same day. It was for a legitimate issue with a merchant where I was in the right, but the algorithm clearly flagged it as high risk. When it happened, support explicitly told me that my account would be fully deleted in 60 days, after which I could simply open a new one. The 60 days have passed, but every time I try to registerr, the app instantly blocks me during ID verification. When I reach out to support on other channels, I just get generic copy-paste answers saying they can't help and have no timeframe. * Has anyone actually managed to get this type of ID block removed? * Did submitting a Formal Complaint help anyone get a manual review from a human? I really valued Revolut for their dispute process, so I’d appreciate knowing if there’s any realistic way to solve this or if it’s a permanent ban. Thanks!

    The author says Revolut closed their account after three chargebacks filed on one day. They say support told them to reapply after 60 days, but new registration still fails at identity verification and support provides no timeframe.
