So those of us who are on youtube know there have been numerous updates these past 10 days. Resellers of views have been delivering with refills some worked okay some didn't. But today I tested 2 resellers one that I have been using for a while and one new.

Things looked legit in YT backend with views coming in real-time. But after just a while I started seeing -50 etc in views... From both suppliers.

Never seen it before so reached out to the suppliers and told them to stop sending right away!
Got a quick response but it took about 4-5 hours before they stopped sending views.

Logged in a few hours after that to check what had happened.
Account with views from a new supplier banned.
Other accounts still have - in views and I guess it a question of time before that one hits the fan.

Luckily for me, I did take a break from using bought views for my best accounts when the updates started rolling in so I hope those are safe. Nothing as of yet. But man does I regret not waiting until things have cool down. But hey you found a few new keywords you can rock, you don't wait.

So the question, anyone else experienced a suspension or anything like it?

I've lost 2 accounts 3 years ago and got one back. Lets see how it goes this time.
 
Been seeing quite a few posts last couple days about well known and well followed youtubers having their own videos getting banned or removed saying it’s super easy for anyone complain and ‘trip’ the algorithm that handles these things. I wonder if these updates are connected.
 
Well I didn't have any videos removed. Might have had one or two tagged as inappropriate but those were cleared manually, even on my other accounts this happens once in a while. Never had any issues. This time I had minus views in real-time. They didn't just remove the views they gave me like -850 so they removed more then they added. Happened to two accounts one is still okay but that was a fresh one and the first video. The other one got suspended completely as in "your account on youtube is suspended due to activities against TOS. You may not create additional youtube accounts."

Haven't heard anyone else have this issue though. Most people just create new accounts I guess and roll on. But this one had so much age and a decent amount of VPH that it actually hurt.

Waiting a few days to send the complaint as I have done some heavy advertising on both YT and Adwords on this account it might actually help me out. And I'm not a U.S person so I think I am going to get my country support hopefully since we are pretty stupid.
