Well, I've been actively trying to create a new Twitter account for a little under a month and Twitter thinks I'm a bot. I've made 1 tweet and followed 5 people.

Even paid for Twitter Blue...still thinks I'm not real. Support is unreachable.

My current plan is to wait til Elon completes the takeover and then build an entire site dedicated to getting Elon's attention to unlock my account...because that's the only way to contact somebody apparently.



Have you tried tweeting at them :P

Edit add: I find it horrible that we have companies that you can not contact, in fact they seem to be going out of their way to make hard to contact them.

Even things you pay money for, like airline tickets. They want you to email them, make the phone number hard to find. So you do, they don't respond and then you have to search and call them, wait an hour or more on hold. The agents are nice but the entire process is terrible.

Earlier I had to do that for a damaged luggage claim. Went through the automated phone assistant to get to damaged luggage claims and it gave the option to use text messages. So I give it a try, nope. They can't resolve the issue through text, has to be on the phone. So I had to call back, re-enter all the info through the automated system and then ignore it's pleadings to use the text system.
