How to Contact YouTube

How to Contact YouTube

You can use a variety of tools to contact YouTube about common issues such as content issues, abuse, security breaches, and copyright claims. The following are some of the most important ways.

1. Using Social media:

YouTube has a strong social media presence, although they rarely respond to comments or direct messages in which they are tagged.

If you do manage to strike up a conversation with a YouTube employee, you're unlikely to get an individualised reply beyond confirmation that your problem is being addressed or instructions to use the YouTube Help section.

On a YouTube Facebook post, leave a comment like this: YouTube has a Facebook page where they post updates; but, due to the enormous number of information on their postings, you're less likely to see them there.

On YouTube, send a tweet: Using Twitter to contact YouTube is one of the most promising methods, as you can submit your comments directly to their page: 

• Visit team youtube.twitter.com.

• All of YouTube's most recent tweets will be displayed.

• You'll also find some exciting stuff here, like the availability of channel memberships for creators with 1000 subscribers.

• Simply click the tweet button to send a tweet to YouTube.

Comment on a YouTube Instagram video: YouTube's Instagram page, unlike its Facebook page, provides a variety of content that receives surprisingly few comments.

You can reach out to YouTube in these ways.

2. Contacting the creator support system

• YouTube is hazy about what you need to accomplish to be "eligible" to email the Creator Support Team, but you must be a YouTube partner with at least 10,000 lifetime channel views.

• Ascertain that you are working on a computer. A smartphone or tablet will not allow you to contact the YouTube Creator Support Team.

• If you're not currently logged into YouTube, go to https://www.youtube.com/ and click SIGN IN in the top-right corner.

• Select the icon that represents your profile. It's in the page's upper-right corner. When you click it, a drop-down menu will display.

• Using the Help button, you can get assistance. This information can be found near the bottom of the drop-down menu.

• Click Are you looking for additional assistance? It can be found at the very top of the menu. There will now be a new drop-down menu.

• Choose a classification. In the drop-down option, select a subject that relates to your present purpose for contacting YouTube.

• Select Email Support from the dropdown menu. Instead of getting Creator resources, this option might say Get Creator resources. This will display a list of topics.
• You won't see the Email Support link if you aren't eligible to contact YouTube Team chat support this way.
• To contact the Creator Support Team, send an email. Once you've verified that you have access to the resources of the Creator Support Team, Choose a category that encompasses the scope of your issue.
  
  Create your email and send it by clicking the contact the Creator Support team link.

3. Reporting Abuse

Make a list of the information you'll need to follow up on. Your options may differ depending on the reason you chose.

• Then, below the reason's header, click the checkbox and confirm.

• To receive more information, click continue.
