How long does it take for Reddit to reply to my appeal?
My account was banned for no reason after leaving a comment. No promotional stuff nothing. Just regular comment...
I start appeal today.
Do I have any chance to get my account back?

Appeals usually take anywhere from 24 hours to 7 days to process. If your comment was clean, your chances of getting unbanned are very high.

I would improve campaign testing tools. It should be easier to compare different ideas and know what actually made the difference.

3 weeks max. Usually 1 week though. I don't know what you did so I don't know if you can get your account back.

I have faced a similar problem today. I submitted an appeal but my all comments and posts have been removed already. Does anyone know even if my account is recovered is it possible to retrieve those comments and posts?

It depends but reddit appeals can take anywhere from a few days to several weeks. If it was a mistake and you explain clearly there is still a chance to recover the account.

A lot depends on the reason behind the ban checking the exact rule involved can help avoid the same issue if the account is restored.

From my experience, appeal response times can vary a lot. Some accounts get a response within days, while others can take weeks or longer depending on the backlog. If the ban was a mistake, a clear and respectful appeal gives you the best chance.

I've seen appeals come back in a couple of days, and I've seen others take a few weeks. Reddit can be pretty inconsistent.

Reddit's appeal response can sometimes arrive within 24–48 hours, but in many cases, it may take 1–2 weeks or even longer.

You should appeal, and you'll certainly have to wait a while.

Reddit replies faster when you stop waiting.
Jokes aside, give it some time. Could be days or weeks, depends on their mood.
