    About Distrokid.
    If you do something wrong because you don't know it and get rejected by the stores they give you a general warning and then kick you out without be specific why this happening, they don't guide you and they don't trying to fix the problem!
    The don"t have the amount of employees to support!
    They beggan well and now is the worst..

    I have two accounts on Distrokid and the scone one is giving me some problems
    1 I had a name that difficult to find on Spotify and other platforms giving me problems in finding the song I uploaded
    Then when I uploaded the second song Distrokid post d it on another artist that isn’t me
    So I decided to change my name thinking that it would solve the problem
    But only one of the two songs was moved to the new artist name
    Now Distrokid is giving me anew problem, my first artist name now is no more available because the other two names ( the new one and the old version of it ) are now my two ipsilon available
    What do you divide me to do ?
