YOLO Account - Restricted PDT

Quick question: Starting in IB. I have a small YOLO account sub-$25000. I wasn't paying attention, some toggle was off in my app and got flagged by my broker as a PDT (pattern day trader). I did a few trades last week (within 5 business days) and forgot about it them and didn't see the warning. Your account gets suspended for 90 days. I am assuming this is not reported or an issue with all my upcoming FINRA licensing exams or disclosures I need to fill out to start working, but I didn't see anything concrete. Let me know if you have any insight. Thanks!
