Impossible for me to get registered 01/07/2024 toomanyhoops803 So I guess your goal is to stop your own apps’ progresss?!!

I don’t know anyone that uses webchat. I wanted to try it out. All other platforms can find ways to verify people, but you choose the option that alienates people from ever using being able to use your app. Then to say, the person that assist you to verify DOES NOT have to be your webchat friend. Well, no one I know has it, so they won’t be able to get verified and that leaves me with asking RANDOM strangers IF they use webchat so they can help ME register. So weird for an app. No other options given for verification. I closed the app and went back in thinking they message was an error. NOPE! Same message and I can’t move forward. Deleting app. I WILL NOT asks a random stranger for help registering to an app. 🙄🙄🙄. This must be an app controlled by Xi Jinping or Kim Jong Un.

China has blocked other forms of social media developed by their foreign competitors. So when WeChat is the ONLY social media app, you are going to get MEDIOCRE customer service support. Like many others who depend on WeChat as a form of communication, it is absolutely ridiculous how DIFFICULT it is to unblock an account. I have contact for help in unblocking account for my father who is in his late 50s. They block him because they claim that he violated the Acceptable Use Policy and that would justify them asking for both his license and bank information to help him unblock. This is the first time I utilise a social media app with extremely strict policy and major invasion of privacy. How Chinese people are comfortable giving such information to a company basically control by the Chinese Communist Party government is crazy! My dad always praise that China is amazing but after dealing with one of the biggest social media platform in China... I disagree. If they are amazing dad, you wouldn’t have to complain to me why WeChat isn’t working anymore for you. Update: After 4 months of chasing them down and emailing them constantly, they were finally able to unlock this account. I thank the representatives that we’re finally able to push this through, and get this fixed. My dad can finally contact his family.

I am a user in the USA and haven’t used my account for a couple of years now. I live 14 miles away from where I last used my account and tried logging on today. The app was downloaded via iOS App Store obviously and it even gave me the option of resetting my password. The password reset email was in Chinese! I changed my password anyway and tried logging in to the app. All of a sudden, it says I’m permanently blocked! This is ridiculous. You send a help request and nobody answers. And then when you try to unblock yourself, it tells you you’ve tried too many time. I can’t even have a friend verify my account, yet so can make a NEW WeChat. If someone has violated the terms of use, why should they be allowed to have another account? More importantly, what term of use did I violate? Not using the app for three years? I don’t have a VPN on my phone, I used the office iOS app. I feel like they just don’t want users from the USA. I did nothing wrong! I just want someone to tell me what I did to have my account blocked and to unlock it since it has been WRONGFULLY blocked. “Suspicious Login” 05/16/2021 _maliii WeChat has permanently blocked my account due to a “suspicious login” which is “in serious violation” of their terms of use.
