Anyone gets Etsy payment on hold back shorter than 6 months?

[bliu60828]

My Etsy shop was suspended on 7/1/2020. After a few more days wait for their email, Etsy legal replied that my payment account has to be on hold until 12/28/2020

This was very depressing... I have more than 10k in there, which is totally stupid. I would never do that again.. I paid over 3k on my own for the shipping outside of etsy. And now I get 0 funds back.

According to their email, it seems like there's no way to get the payment back earlier. So I want to know if anyone successfully fights the payment back in a shorter time? (Not until 6 months later..)

Their decision is FINAL and you have to wait.
I got banned also and have about 3.5K and have to wait for almost 7 month :(

Also yes I paid for shipping from my own money for over 100 orders :(

Not possible in my opinion.

But payments are always disbursed automatically within 180 days.
