Deposit Photos registration not working?

Hi -

Noticed last thread here seems to be in AUGUST 2017? Is that because no one likes deposit photos?

I'm new to this - and literally have been trying to get "registered" for the last 5 months with them. You have to pass an exam - I KNOW my images/videos/etc are superior quality - but I just get a standard "Image not suitable for commercial use" (EVEN if it is a video).

I've tried phoning, e-mailing, etc - but the support is as useless as fill in your favorite adjective. It's like I am talking to a robot - it "sounds" intelligent - but - only has a limited vocabulary of what it can say. I.e., Q: "What does 'not commercial quality' mean?" A:"It means that it wasn't of commercial quality". Q: "Okay, can you clarify - specifically what I need to do to get it accepted?" "A: Simply submit an image of commercial quality"... round, circular argument. And then you have to wait TEN days before applying again.

Are they just not accepting new applications? I.e., is ever single application "auto-rejected"?
And am I actually just talking to bots (even on the phone?) They 'say' they aren't bots... but, with their replies (phone/email/live chat/etc) - I'd guess they were...

Any insight/help would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks!

I would not bother signing up to them the sales are pathetic and you only get subscriptions any way

You're not missing anything by being rejected

I just saw you started two threads on the same issue one is more than enough
