The new policy says that new accounts will have to wait 90 days before being allowed to subscribe to the new plan. It's likely to avoid being impersonated and the like.
For 90 days, newly created accounts will not be able to subscribe to the service. The company said on its FAQ page that it could impose waiting periods for new accounts.
New accounts that were created before November 9 won't be able to buy the $8 plan.
Accounts created after Nov 9 can't sign up for the blue program. The image was posted on the social media site.
A lot of verified accounts started pretending to be brands, celebrities, and athletes when the old terms were published during the rush of the new service. Eli Lilly and Lockheed Martin's shares took a hit because of fake verified accounts on social media.
The company does not allow verified users to change their name. The verified checkmark will be lost until the social network confirms that the new name follows its rules, according to Musk. The company doesn't have a formal policy around that.
With new release, changing your verified name will cause loss of checkmark until name is confirmed by Twitter to meet Terms of Service

The new paid plan is causing a lot of problems for the micro-blogging site. Musk promised that subscribers would get prominence on the notification tab, replies, and searches, but briefly moved the verified notification tab's position to place it before all notifications. After assessing the initial results from the verification roll out, it's clear that it has to keep advertisers on the platform.
Last week, Musk paused the roll out of the social media platform. He promised to re-launch the program on November 29 but things can change very fast.
