Has anyone dealt with something like this? I'm not sure what my options are.

Etsy holding funds for 45 days. I've been dealing with this for about 6 months now and the situation isn't improving.

The amount being held/disputed is approximately $12,303. I have tried contacting customer support 5 times with no resolution.

Has anyone been through something similar? What worked for you?

Not surprised at all tbh.

In my case, it took about 3-6 months to resolve. The key was having everything documented.
