I don't agree with you, FT reviewers are the most reasonable IMO.
When they say "Quality issue", they are usually right, you just had luck with a more forgiving reviewer for the third time.

Generally one batch is reviewed by one same inspector, so when on two videos of the same kind of quality and format, submitted together, one is rejected and the other is accepted I have some doubt about the capacity or the seriousness of the inspector…

I am now totally convinced that Fotolia reviewers have no clue what they are talking about.

Video Submission: Declined Quality Issue
Same Video Submission: Declined Type of Video
Same Video Submission: Accepted

There was probably something about your submission that made the reviewer uncomfortable accepting it, like it was some kind of borderline grey area either in image quality, or much more likely something to do with copyright or releases. Something as simple as a certain building in the background, a sign, a car, a portion of a person or something not blurred out enough. It probably was not enough of a glaring issue that they could confidently put a reason down, so they came up with something vague so they did not have to accept it.

He doesn't mention anything about a batch. It could be that I didn't understand it right but I read it as it was the same video submitted three times, refused twice and accepted the third time.
As said above, this all is worth nothing without showing the file.

I never told (wrote) he mentioned it

Personally it happened me three or four times to have one video, part a full batch, rejected for various inconsistent reasons (bad format when all the videos were processed in the same way and saved in a same format - Wrong audio encoding for videos without sound track - etc.)

Something vague is unacceptable! Rejection reasons should be precise because they can help to understand the problem and to correct it.
