What is the source of this, and also the source of the claim that Adultwork will force advertisers to use WhatsApp?

Nobody can read the blog post above without subscribing. So your account has not been deleted, and nor has that of somebody you know?

Where have AW said we are going to have to use Whatsapp on their site?

I don't know if this is the same as the OP's article but there was something on mashable recently (you don't need to register to read it) : https:// mashable.com/article/is-whatsapp-banning-sex-worker-accounts

I can't see any articles nor announcements when I've searched but only had a quick glance.

Don't know how/why AW would even want to do that. Can understand why whatsapp might want to make things difficult.

Thanks folks. I've never used Whatsapp and I've no plans to start, but I'd find it odd that AW would be insisting on a form of communication owned by a US company, much less restricting us in something that could lose them revenue.

I don't really care too much about WA. I only have it to send punters content from bookings.

I wouldn't worry AC; people have asked three times now and nobody has even attempted to back this up. I suspect it's an understanding malfunction somewhere.

If you send messages that annoy a client and he blocks you and reports you, your account will be banned if any of the messages are promoting sex or selling sex.  WhatsApp reviews the last five messages that you sent and bans and blocks you if they determine you are in contravention of their policies.

It is in their terms and conditions.

It happened to me a few weeks ago. My 'working' WhatsApp account got blocked. However, they gave me a chance to appeal, and I did that. I wrote that I wasn't doing anything illegal. And within about 6 hours they released my account.
I think that happens because some guys, for example after being refused, block us, and they also tick 'spam'. This way the account can get blocked.

This only happens when you have your WhatsApp account when you have a business account.

But if you don't have a business account, absolutely nothing will happen to you.
