It's really funny how that works, even though everybody says otherwise.
I got a contract violation a little over a month ago. I only really dash on my days off, so I don't really get to get that many deliveries. This is the first day I've driven after my contract violation has fallen off, and I'm making money just like I did before the contract violation hit, before I was scrambling to even get a good order. Like I would have to decline like three four five bullshit orders just to get one good one. And I refuse to believe that's just chance that I had basically spent a whole month of hating door dashing until I magically start getting orders that I normally get before I got my contract violation. I have always believed that contract violations affect your account and your ability to receive orders. How? I'm not sure. It might just take you out of the priority pool for all I know. And I kind of think that opinion holds some weight because I have never seen that high paying order banner show up on any order I ever received during that last month of door dashing. But I'm seeing it practically every other order now, like I used to before the contract violation. So I refuse to believe anybody who says that contract violations don't affect your account. Because they may not in your area, but they definitely do where I live.
