Don’t submit more than one appeal request at a time. Multiple requests add to the volume of work to be reviewed, and this delays our response. Complete the form as completely as possible, including your Channel ID.

In YouTube Analytics, the channel URL and name will be gone after you delete a channel. Metadata from the channel, such as watch time, will be kept in aggregate reports, but they won’t be attributed to the deleted channel.

If your YouTube channel is not financially successful, the site may take it down. Users are unhappy with a new Terms of Service from Google-owned YouTube that allows the firm to terminate access to an account if it feels the account is no longer commercially viable.

Visit www.youtube.com/gaia_link and enter your YouTube username and password in the box on the left. Note: If you don’t recall your old YouTube password, there is no way to retrieve it for these accounts. Select Claim channel from the drop-down menu.

If your channel has three Community Guidelines strikes in 90 days, is the subject of a single case of serious abuse (such as predatory behavior), or is determined to be completely dedicated to breaking our standards (as is frequently the case with spam accounts), it will be removed.
