Account suspended for identity verification, documents submitted and confirmed received on 7 September, case still unassigned, production down

1

Hello,

Our company AWS account (eu-central-1) was suspended on 7 September pending identity verification. We uploaded all requested documents through the secure link the same day, and received confirmation that they were received.

Since then:

  • The original Account and billing case has had no written response.
  • After three days of waiting for chat, an agent confirmed the case is being worked on, but could not give a date or say whether anything is missing.
  • We have not changed payment details or opened any other AWS accounts.

Our production demo platform is down and a customer pilot is waiting on it, so every day matters to us.

Could a moderator please share this with the Account Verification team, and let us know if anything further is needed from our side? We will reply immediately to any request.

I have used Azure for 10 years, an never got a problem like this.

Hello,

Sorry to hear your production is down and your waiting on Support. I've located your case, shared your feedback with Support, and took additional internal action to gain visibility on this for you. I don't have an ETA on a response, but continue monitoring your inbox for an update from Support with the next steps to take.

I understand how frustrating this situation must be, especially with your production environment down and a customer pilot waiting. Account suspension for identity verification is a security measure AWS takes seriously to protect both you and the platform.

Since you've already submitted your documents through the secure link and received confirmation, the verification team is reviewing them. These reviews can take time as they involve careful examination of the documentation provided. The team handling your case is working through their queue, and while I cannot provide specific timelines or expedite the process, they will respond through your existing case once the review is complete.

To ensure the fastest possible resolution, I recommend checking your AWS Support Center at https://console.aws.amazon.com/support/ regularly for any updates or requests for additional information. If the verification team needs anything else from you, they will communicate that through your open case. As you mentioned, you're ready to respond immediately to any requests, which is exactly the right approach.

While waiting, you might also want to review your AWS Support plan options, as different support tiers offer different response time commitments for various case types. However, for account verification matters specifically, these are handled by a specialized team following their security review process.

The verification team will work to resolve this as quickly as possible while ensuring all security requirements are met. Continue monitoring your case in the Support Center for their response.
