Hi Shopify Community, I’m in a tough spot and need help. My store was suspended on Feb 4th after I paid the $1 subscription via PayPal. No prior notice or explanation was given, and it’s been over 48 hours with no response from Shopify support despite multiple attempts to reach them. This lack of communication is unacceptable and hurting my business. If this isn’t resolved soon, I’ll have to escalate by filing a complaint with the Better Business Bureau (BBB), pursuing legal action, and sharing my experience on social media like Twitter and Reddit. Has anyone else faced this? Any advice would be appreciated. To Shopify: Please explain why my account was suspended and provide a resolution immediately. Thanks!
