📝Appeal Template

Format: email

Subject: Account Restriction Appeal - [Your Cash App Username]

Dear Cash App Support Team,

I am writing to formally appeal the restriction placed on my Cash App account on [date]. My account [username/phone number] has been restricted, preventing me from accessing Bitcoin and cash transfer features.

I believe this restriction was placed in error because:
- [Explain your legitimate use of the account]
- [Describe the nature of your transactions]
- [Provide context for any unusual activity]

I have been a Cash App user since [date] and have always used the service for legitimate purposes including:
- [List normal activities: bill payments, purchases, etc.]
- [Any Bitcoin activities if relevant]

To support my appeal, I have attached:
- Copy of government-issued ID
- Recent bank statements
- Transaction receipts/documentation

I respectfully request that you review my account and remove the restrictions. I am committed to following all Cash App terms of service and am happy to provide additional documentation if needed.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,
[Your Full Name]
