I am impressed with their customer service. I contacted Unchained Music, letting them know I was having an issue with Apple Music. They fixed the issue for me! My previous music distributor would not have done this for me. Unchained Music went above and beyond.

Unfriendly with AI MUSIC
Their TOS allowed AI music, but if you submit all music generated by AI, they rejected all of your music.
Don't wasted money and time. Slow review process, and no sense of rejection.
My 18 albums were rejected, even I subscribed Unchained Pro Plan, Terrible service.
-- Updated ---
Due to I cannot reply their comment below, so I sent a request for refund because their policies. They cannot, but Distrokid can. No one reply and no refund now.
However there is admin on trustpilot. If you have time and care about ur customers. You should declare the reason clearly on your website, and make it faster to reply or review the music. Each album spent 5 days.
Finally, I create music with prompt, I regenerate a lot until I got the song, the cover I change a lot of prompt until i got the image, how dare you say i create without human creative.
Anyone who looking for music distributor, I can say chose DISTROKID. I submited same album and my album got approved with in an hour, instead waiting for 5 days and got rejected on unchainedmusic.
-------- Updated March 23, 2025 ---------
I was challenge by Unchainmusic again. They requested Trustpilot to ask my personal information like my email, my full name, my invoice, and my telephone number to prevent fraud review. I filled my information, my invoice id: 0057B56D-0001, and I already paid to this company

Finaly I just wonder instead of they refund my money, that will make me satify, but they want to delete negative feedback from real customers. I still confused that Unchained music cannot distribute my music, but Destrokid and Symphonic can. The company goes to the wrong way, and sooner or later I hope they will lost more customers due to my comments.
Actually, US law also have consumer right protects act. Customers can ask refund within 14 days without question ask. They also violate the law by create their unclear term of use. If anyone facing same case as me. Please try to filling to Consumer protection organization in USA like FTC. I think this might help more people for recover their fund form unethical company!

Hi Monthon,
We're sorry that you had a bad experience, however you submitted 18 albums full of 20+ tracks (with some including 30+ tracks) and cover art fully generated by AI, without any involvement by a human in the creative process. While we do allow AI music and cover art to be uploaded we do ask that the music and naming is not generic, and you consider your place in the creative process. Please see our generic and AI content policies below:
https://www.unchainedmusic.io/faq-g/what-is-generic-content
https://www.unchainedmusic.io/faq-g/do-you-allow-ai-generated-music-to-be-uploaded
The music you provided consistently had album names like "Soft Glows Along Midnight Roads", "Echoes Across Digital Horizons", and and "Wandering Paths Beneath Quiet Stars" with the exact same cover art between albums, despite being 20+ track albums each. Our quality control team sees this as not a good-faith effort to use AI as a tool in the creative process, especially since you do not currently have any artist presence on streaming platforms.
Specifically, this falls against our following policies related to AI music:
1.) Originality, as the naming, music, and cover art were not sufficiently distinct to be a good-faith effort of new creation using AI tools.
2.) Ethical Use of AI, as you did not attribute the releases to AI until pushed by our quality control team.
3.) Use Original Cover Art, as some of your albums had the exact same cover art.
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to our support team at https://www.unchainedmusic.io/faq/support

May need improvements.
May need improvements.
It's great that they have a free plan available to their customers. But it would be good if the free plan also gave me the option to untick Spotify. I have been trying to get back intouch with the customer support team to get my account deleted. Still waitiing on a reply.

Hi Juz,
We're sorry to hear that you had a bad experience. Unfortunately, the Core plan does come with certain limitations, including not being able to choose your stores. If that's something you'd prefer, upgrading to the Grow or Pro plan would be a great option.
I can see that you messaged support 2.5 hours before leaving this review requesting the deletion. As noted in our support form, the Core tier has a support turnaround time of 5 business days. That being said, we’ve gone ahead and deleted your account as requested. You should be receiving a confirmation message from support shortly.
We value your feedback and would appreciate it if you could reconsider your review, given that we’ve now processed your request as quickly as possible.
Best,
Unchained Music Support
