Yaymicro - Legal solution ideas

They closed my account in november of 2017. Unfortunately, I've seen my yay-port on agefotostock. Search yours by this link:
https://www.agefotostock.com/age/en/Search.aspx?providerfilter=YAY&author=<your name>%20<your surname>
(you may avoid author)
Is there any chance to punish them?

To be honest, this was one of the fastest response / action I ever got from a website, so I don't know how they don't respond to your request..

4+ years later, my images still on sale on partner sites. >:(

13 days ago was the last time from many times I asked yay to remove all my images from there website/my portfolio.
I deleted them already one by one BEFORE that, but until now they are still online.
A little bit surprising was their last email:
# Hi
Yayimages had previous owners (2 years ago) that had sub licensed some content. We have not forged any new sublicensing partnerships because acquiring our own customers is more of a priority.
We can close your account if you like. It’s not a problem.
Can I ask which agency has the best model for you and the best sales volume?
Thanks. #
1. I just uploaded my images a few month ago, so should not have any commection to the old subs he is talking about.
2. Could it really be a good agency, if they ask ME, a newbie in stockphotos with only a round 500 images there, which agency has the best model for you (me) and the best sales volume? That is a beginner question, isn´t it?
If I would have an own agency, I would look around and find out about my competitors BEFORE I open a new agency. Seem like Yay has indeed no strategy at all.
kall3bu:
I just wrote Yay again and tell them to pressure them by regular report, if they started to remove my photos or not.
So I keep this thread on the top.
I hope, this works and Yay starting to remove my photos.
The other contributors, who have the same problem and even see there photos still online after closing their accounts years ago, keep on update here, too.
If Yay wants to get trust by contributors again, they should react and remove the photos.
It is little bit aggressive, I know, but I am not a shame to do it.

4 years!
Now hopefully people will believe that they won't reply to my emails after years and years. And no I never had any argument with them or wrote anything rude etc. They simply just don't reply. In the 14 years I've been in microstock, I've never come across an agency quite this bad.
