@TastyPaperclips Hey bro, I was also banned for roughly the same reason. I changed my username, and then I was banned for impersonation. Today, I received a response on X confirming the ban, but I wrote to Google Support and submitted an appeal. After that, I was unbanned within an hour
My channel was always a fan channel with original stream edits, not spam. If youre now saying it's spam — explain what exactly violated that policy
I provided proof from @ialfedov that he supports me. 36+ days of waiting and you change the reason?
I need a clear, consistent answ
@TeamYouTube You just told me my channel UCcaHWk9IZQViPJje17olEIQ was terminated for "Spam Policy."
But my termination notice says "Impersonation." These are two completely different violations.
Which one is it? You can't change the reason after 36+ days of review.
⬇️ CONTINUE
- Clearly labeled as fan channel
- Never spoke as him, never claimed to be him
Viewers often confused me with @ialfedov in comments. I ALWAYS corrected them — said I'm not him, just a fan making highlights. I cant show proof because channel is terminated
This NOT impersonation
@TeamYouTube I need a HUMAN review of UCcaHWk9IZQViPJje17olEIQ RIGHT NOW.
- Fan channel with clips/edits of @ialfedov streams
- Creator supports me, contacted Support twice — rejected
- 36+ days no real update
- Official appeal rejected in 3 hours
⬇️ CONTINUED
I just need a clear status — still reviewed or final decision? 32 days with proof from original creator is too long.
Retweet if YouTube should give real answers. 🙏 @TeamYouTube
32 days waiting for HUMAN answer from @TeamYouTube on appeal UCcaHWk9IZQViPJje17olEIQ.
Fan channel of @ialfedov banned for "impersonation." Creator supports me, contacted Support twice — both rejected.
@TeamYouTube said "still working". No update.

@voxekYT YouTube's support team is absolutely terrible; I've been waiting for my request to be reviewed for over 30 days. If your posts don't get millions of views, they'll be looking at your case for months.
@TalesOfTheoVT@TeamYouTube My channel was banned because of "impersonating" my channel is a fan channel with cuts of streams of one YouTuber and a streamer. The official appeal via YouTube was rejected and I wrote to support TeamYoutube in X with new evidence now I'm waiting for an answer
@TeamYouTube UCcaHWk9IZQViPJje17olEIQ - 22 days waiting. I provided proof @ialfedov supports my fan channel. He sent access "with limited viewing rights" as proof. His Creator Support tickets rejected twice due to confidentiality. I cant accept invite. Please give a concrete upd.
Hi @TeamYouTube! 👋 Just wanted to quickly follow up on our DM conversation regarding my channel suspension (Channel ID: [UCcaHWk9IZQViPJje17olEIQ]).
The case was escalated a few days ago. Could you please check if there are any updates from the team? Thanks a lot for your help🙏
@TeamYouTube The original creator @ialfedov (who my fan channel UCcaHWk9IZQViPJje17olEIQ is dedicated to) is not against my channel and has already messaged Creator Support about it. I have screenshots as proof.
@TeamYouTube My fan channel "Нарезки Алфедова" (UCcaHWk9IZQViPJje17olEIQ) terminated for "impersonation". Creator Alfedov sent YouTube official confirmation that he supports my channel & never filed a complaint. Appeals auto-rejected. I have proof. Please assign HUMAN reviewer
