@Ramin: What did the October 7 email say?
When the politics and hate take a break, we never got an answer to the question. What did theOctober 7 email said? We don't have the answer that started a political war on an assumed guess.
In reply 46 he said he never received the promised e-mail of October 7.
I'm not sure where the political war is - all I see is different perspectives that people have.
Thanks for reply,  Yes, I never received any email on October 7th.

The Islamic government in Iran pressure the Iranian people and the USA also puts more pressure on my people. Many people of Iran moved to other places for better life. I can go from here but I love my homeland. Many years ago I could go from here. If my country is good or bad I love it. I love my country if I am poor. If I become an American citizen or a Canadian citizen or ... I never have these problems but I will stay. I will stay even if all of agencies don't register me.
36 years ago, my country was better than more countries. We had a better life in England or America, and now we register on a American or Canadian site for a few dollars, because my country's wealth is in the hands of thieves and looters.
Thank you all
Ramin
There is nothing wrong with your country. It has a very rich and wonderful history. Living anywhere else isn't going to make you problem free. You'll just have a different set of problems.
The problem is that your current government is not necessarily working in your best interest (although that is an observation from my point of view which is certainly not "all knowing").
Sanctions always have impacts on people who don't deserve to be impacted. Problem is that the countries imposing those sanctions have very few other ways to try to influence the situation. The fact of the matter is that the Iranian government is participating in activities that much of the rest of the world can't support. Your right to an income from stock photography is being sacrificed for what is perceived as the greater good.
I sincerely hope that Iran someday recovers its past grandeur. It is a place I'd like to visit some day.
Yes, the current government in Iran is Islamic not Iranian. They do not consider themselves Persians. They are not worried about Iran. They only worried about Islam. They are stealing. They loot. And stealing money goes to another country. Also we have a great brain drain and many scientists of my country are in the USA and Canada and Europe. So the problem between America and Islamic regime is a false representation. They both are satisfied because both of them have benefits. I wish everything gets better and I hope to see you in Iran. You can be my guest.

You can try calling them if you don't get a response from the email address they sent you, it may take some time to get a reply from email though. If it is because of sanctions then there's probably nothing that can be done. Good luck and hopefully those sanctions will be lifted soon.
Thanks a lot for your Sympathy. Sincerely

No. The OP said before he was iS exclusive he had accounts with the US based agencies who closed his account at the same time. Then he became iS exclusive and as of 7th Oct they closed his account.
Oh, it's ambiguous. Could be read either way. I took it that he had removed his portfolios but left his accounts open.
Also my account has closed. All of my portfolio and my account is missed.

Exactly. I became an exclusive member on the iStock after the US besed agencies closed my accounts. Some of my images was on the free sites same as Facebook and Flickr. I didn't know. The iS team said me about it and I sent email to these sites for removing my copyrighted images. They removed them and I became exclusive contributor (Two or three years ago).

No, I had not two accounts. My first member name was "RaminKhojasteh" and then I sent an email to iStock team for changing my member name to "Ramin-3D".
Before that I became an exclusive contributor on the iStock, I had a few accounts in other royalty sites: Shutterstock, fotolia, dreamstime, and ... and shutterstock & fotolia & dreamstime closed my account at the same time and no reply to my emails.
You are an IS exclusive contributor , but you have accounts at other agencies at the same time?
he said he had account at the other sites before he was exclusive.
When I was exclusive on the iStock I had not any image in other sites. The iStock team found all of my images on the internet and sent email to me and asked me for removing them. I removed all of them and then they confirmed my exclusivity.

@Ramin: What did the October 7 email say?
I am wondering why he prefers no to tell what did the October 7 email say...
There are lots of Iranian contributors on Shutterstock, Borna Mirahmadian

But is he registered from Iran or from somewhere else? It isn't the nationality that is under sanctions, it is the country. There wouldn't be a sanctions problem for an Iranian based outside Iran.
Yes, I registered from Iran. Some of Iranian are citizens of another country. I have only Iran passport and other certifications.

@Ramin: What did the October 7 email say?
Indeed. The rest is speculation at best.
Come on Ramin - what did the email of October 7 ACTUALLY say? And what did the letter from other agenceis say?
I don't know. I received nothing. After that some agency closed my accounts I sent to them a few emails but they didn't say acceptable reasons.

I certainly don't know that this is the issue for certain but...
There are currently sanctions against Iran due to the ongoing nuclear program issues.
I don't know if these affect all trade but maybe you are a victim of the companies just trying to make sure they aren't seen to be trading with Iran.
Unfortunately, things like these tend to affect people who don't directly control the policies.

Hi, Unfortunately, I agree with you. Policy can be seen everywhere and people who have nothing to do with politics are victims.

I apologize that my English language is not so good. Maybe I don't understand some of your post.

At what point did your being in Iran enter into it? Whatever the October 7 letter said, that's your answer right there.
I became a member on the iStock in May 2009. At that time there was the name of my country at the list and now removed from list.

It's not because you're from Iran is it? It sounds like you were caught claiming personal copyright of imagery you didn't create. Why otherwise would all the main agencies close your accounts?
I did not do any mistake. I am a designer and all of my images and videos created by me. I never had not any image or clip on my gallery from others.

What did the email on October 7, 2014 say? Did you have two accounts?
Yep. We're obviously not being told the whole story here.
As Baruch Spinoza observed "No matter how thin you slice it, there will always be two sides"

Hi, My name is Ramin. I am a 3D artist. I was an exclusive contributor in iStockphoto (My member name was "RaminKh******" & "Ramin-3D"). 3 days ago I received an email from iStock: ________________________________________________________ Dear Ramin, The administration team at iStock has revoked your forum privileges. Comments from iStock Administrators (if any): Closing account as per our email to you on October 7, 2014 If you would like to discuss this with client relations, please email [email protected]. Best Regards, iStock.com ________________________________________________________ No reason, no explanation and no response to my emails. They did not say anything. They removed the name of my country from their list. They sold my photos and videos and they have benefited more than 50 thousand dollars and now, they close my account without any explain. I'm so sorry for this global business. You can visit some of my removed images here: https://www.google.com/search?q=site:istockphoto.com+%22Ramin-3D%22+contributor&biw=1297&bih=919&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=w91jVJLoJPHG7AaMu4HYCw&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAQ
