What's Wrong?
[URGENT] Account Disabled Immediately After Payment - No Service Access, No Refund, No Support Response
Issue Type
Critical Business Issue: Payment Processing / Account Access / Customer Support Failure
Severity Level
🔴 CRITICAL - Financial Transaction Without Service Delivery
---
Summary
I paid for Claude Code service and my account was immediately disabled after payment completion, preventing any service usage. Despite multiple refund requests through official channels, I have received ZERO response from Anthropic support while the company continues to hold my payment.
Invoice Number: DFON03V2-0005
This constitutes receiving payment without delivering contracted services and represents a fundamental breach of consumer rights.
