ITS NOT POSSIBLE TO CANCEL A SUBSCRIPTION! There's supposed to be an edit button on your subscription plan where you can cancel it but there's not and you cant contact sound cloud!

I registered and paid for Artist Pro. The first (new) song I wanted to distribute (without any info) was accepted without any problems. Then I did the same with two songs that I recorded years ago and had submitted even then to Sabam for protection. I added the proof from Sabam, as well as the email with the singer's permission and her contact details, noting that those two songs had been on Soundcloud for years (8 and 3 years)! One of them was even the original, sung by me at the time. It took me hours to prove everything again and again in every possible way. In the meantime, both songs had already been rejected six times because they were considered AI, and I was asked for permission from the performer, a beat license(?), any sample license(?), proof of ownership... There is not a single note of AI in those songs. I only changed the sound using MIDI. I made everything myself before the existence of AI. Time and again, I sent all the information I could in pdf, only to receive a rejection with the same unjustified demands. It seems that my explanations and evidence are not even being read, and I keep getting the same automatic responses. I also had the robot (which doesn't understand a thing) create a ticket several times, but this only resulted in virtually the same emails. No human contact whatsoever! Very frustrating, infuriating, and scandalous, actually, and money for nothing!

Geldmacherei

Soundcloud laat niet toe dat je account verwijderd en blokkeert tevens ook je account dat je wil deleten. Dit betekent dat je muziek illegaal kan gecopiëerd worden als je er geen copyright protected opzet. Je muziek wordt niet beluisterd en geblokkeerd als je geen account upgrade zodat je geld moet betalen. Dus bescherm je muziek altijd met copyright protected en blijf er van weg. Ik kan nog niet eens met mijn kritiek hierop mijn account deleten. Dit zijn maffiapraktijken van de hoogste graad

Ich habe sehr viel Zeit investiert, um zwei komplette Alben auf SoundCloud hochzuladen. Seit gestern (09:35 Uhr) hängt jedoch der Upload-Prozess – die Uhr dreht sich ununterbrochen, aber die Titel erscheinen nicht in meinem Profil. Gerade wenn man viel Arbeit in seine Musik steckt, ist es frustrierend, wenn die Plattform so unzuverlässig funktioniert. Support oder klare Hinweise zum Problem fehlen ebenfalls. Für Künstler:innen, die ihre Werke ernsthaft veröffentlichen möchten, ist das extrem unbefriedigend. Im jetzigen Zustand kann ich SoundCloud leider nicht weiterempfehlen.

Too bad I cannot give 0 stars... Distribution keeps rejecting a song I have all of the rights too, since its 100% produced by me. Takes 3 days before they reject you for a generic reason. Artist Pro functions like amplify are spent and not used. Contacting the help center is easy, but they simple never respond. Switched to DistroKid and had the same song published within 12 hours on most major platforms. Steer clear of anything SoundCloud related....

Für junge Musiker absolut nicht mehr brauchbar. Es werden nur noch die Leute gepusht, die viel Geld dort für Abos bezahlen, alles Andere an Neuerscheinungen geht vollkommen unter. Soundcloud ist nur noch eine Geldkrake, nicht mehr und auch nicht weniger.

I got mass reported from their system for something that I didn't do and they said that it happened in 2021. I remember I was protecting myself from multiple trolls from the many commentary fields of a podcast that decided to attack me all at once, yet they never specify what I said, and the audios that happened on hasn't been public in years, so soundcloud are cowards!
