FAQ

How long does reinstatement take?

Typically days to a few weeks per review round. The kit shows you how to avoid the #1 delay: incomplete evidence forcing a second round.

Should I just create a new profile while I wait?

No — that's the case-killer. Duplicate profiles violate guidelines and can sink both. The guide covers what to do instead.

My suspension says nothing about why. Normal?

Yes, most don't. The guide's diagnosis section maps your situation to the likely trigger so your appeal answers the right question.

What are my odds?

If your business is real, verifiable at its address, and the profile is accurate: appeals succeed routinely. If not, no kit, agency or “expert” can fix it — and we'd rather tell you that for €49 than €500.
