I'm trying to appeal a violation. I haven't been able to because "The characters you entered didn't match the word verification."?

The appeal link in the emails hasn't worked properly for some time. Go to the link in the help pages:

https://io.help.yahoo.com/contact/index?page=topic...

and include - The specific text of the post that was deleted, The violation reason specified in the notification email (if you got one, if you didn’t get one then make that known), The reason why you'd like it reviewed, and The Yahoo ID you're using in Yahoo Answers.

Are you Appealing from the Violation Email Notice ? if so you cant do it through that way its Broken use the Alternative Appeal Form Here is the Link to It

Select Contact a Yahoo Specialist then Appeals then Follow the Instructions from there

We know, but at leat you got a report notice email and the appeal link took you to an appeal form. Many of us ha e not been getting any emails. It's been well over a year since I got a report notice email on a different account.

the appeal has not worked in several weeks
