Hello, I'd appreciate some help with an issue I am having.

My pokerstars account as been restricted for a routine security review for 6 weeks.

I can log in to the site and see my funds but when I try buy into a game or withdraw my funds, I get a pop your account is temporally restricted pending a routine security review. These usually last a few minutes, I emailed them 2 weeks ago ill attach it below and have still received no reply.

I also messaged them on twitter last Wednesday and received no reply. I will attach that as well.

6 weeks absolutely no information to why they suddenly restricted my account after 12 years apart from an automated email on the 21st of jan basically saying the same thing as the pop up your account is restricted for a routine security review.
