I was in the process of building my account on Fotolia from around 2 months & started selling images on it. But one day to my surprise I found my account has been deleted without notice & I am not able to login.

After consulting with the support team I got a reply saying that "Unfortunately deleted account can not been recovered" without letting me know how they can delete the account without my confirmation? At least they should justify it with proper reason.

I found very irresponsible reply & unprofessional approach to the problem.

I have a similar experience with Fotolia. Had you had any photo sales? Lucky for me, I had only uploaded 20 photos or so. I have since readded my account (I decided to give it another try after a friend starting making good money with them). Things are doing fine, but I hear lots of bad stories about Fotolia changing things without notifying anybody.

These seem quick to respond to praise and slow to respond to critiques and problems.

To me that is very odd, I would email support and bug them on what happened.

More interesting then fotolia continues to sell images, after deleting account.
