YouTube YPP suspension – earnings withheld. Anyone actually get them paid later?
Hi everyone,
I’m trying to understand what really happens with withheld earnings after a YouTube Partner Program suspension.
Channel was removed from YPP due to reused content
In September (before the reused content issue), I earned from monetized videos.
Monetization was disabled later, after uploading one reused video.
In AdSense says “Earnings withheld following channel termination or suspension from the YouTube Partner Program (YPP).”
I can re-apply to YPP after 90 days
questions:, has anyone here actually received withheld earnings AFTER being re-accepted into YPP? Or is this money lost, even if the earnings were made before the policy violation?
Any firsthand experiences appreciated.
Thanks.
