What are delisting mistakes that make things worse?

Requesting without fixing:

• Most common mistake
• Will be denied and may extend listing
• Shows you do not understand the problem

Dishonesty:

• Blocklist operators often know more than you think
• Getting caught in lies destroys credibility
• Honesty, even about mistakes, is better

Aggressive or demanding tone:

• Blocklists are not obligated to list or delist you
• Aggression makes operators less sympathetic

Repeated requests:

• Multiple requests without new information wastes time
• May be seen as harassment

Blaming others:

• "It was not my fault" without fixing is useless
• Focus on solutions, not blame
• Arguing with the inspector does not get your cargo released. Cooperation does.
