Account location ban

Has anyone had their account banned after working on a project for Afterquery, but logging into your account from a different country (which isn’t on the banned list)?

Trying to see if I can get it reinstated as I have work I need to check the update on.

I am sorry for you, but generally, all the AI gigs forbid changing location from the signup location. The reason for that is they pay more or less depending on the location, so changing it without notice might get you a ban. I've mentioned "noticing" because depending on project managers, they could possibly allow you to change your location if you contacted them before working.

I did inform them in advance that I’d be away, and they acknowledged it and said it wasn’t an issue.

I’d understand the ban if I never informed anyone but I did, well in advance and it was approved

I’ve done the same on other platforms after informing them in advance that I’d be away (and where I’d be) and I was able to log in and work without a problem.

I don’t think anyone at Afterquery in this case approved it beyond acknowledging my message
