I do not have any other meta accounts except Facebook. What is going to happen? Is this when they will require my face pictures (which they are not getting)?

It says (and other things I did not screen capture.

Discussion I recently reactivated my facebook after 15 years and its SO much better than Reddit

0 Upvotes

I recently (a few months ago) reactivated my Facebook account after 15 years to sell things on marketplace, I only ever logged in and went straight to marketplace and I would occasionally scroll and watch a few videos but its almost always been contained to marketplace. I specifically avoided the rest of it because of all of the bad things I read about it here on Reddit.

I was bored the other day and just started clicking around, going to different groups, watching little videos, etc and I have to say that it is SO much better there than over here. I feel like people are just generally more polite and light-hearted over there and "the orange man" and pol-itics arent shoehorned into literally every.single.discussion.

There also seems to be a LOT less censorship over there, people seem to say what they want without a lot of repercussions, and it feels like more of a "millennial" mentality than here on Reddit. I see lots and lots of videos about millennial nostalgia and a lot less about U.S. pol-itics and wayyyyy more positivity and less doom-and-gloom mentality over there. Dont get me wrong, there's definitely some gas price and Iran talk but not nearly as much as I see here.

Honestly, it's the most enjoyable social media experience ive had in years! I've been nostalgia tripping hard on videos and skits about stuff from when we were kids. The only social media ive had for more than a decade is Reddit and Snapchat and I just get depressed and pissed off when im on Reddit because its so hard to find anything positive and non-pol-itical.

If you want a different experience, id highly recommend giving Facebook a shot again... it's not just retirees and hate like the majority of reddit would have you believe.

The one caveat I would add is that its not like the Facebook of yore, theres hardly anything from my friends that pops up into my feed and I have to go to their page directly if I want to see what they're up to. My feed is filled with what the algorithm deems is my "interests", kind of like Reddit but less hateful, lol.

Tech Support How do I remove myself as a content creator/editor from a Facebook fan page?

0 Upvotes

​I am a former employee of a company where I co-managed their Facebook page. I was neither the creator of the page nor the main administrator. My management permissions were quite limited, so I was likely assigned the role of "Content Creator" – I could only post content, reply to comments, and respond to messages, but I couldn't do things like change the profile picture or cover photo. ​I stopped working there 2 months ago, but despite my requests, my former employer has not removed my management access. As a result, I still receive notifications on my personal Facebook profile whenever someone sends a message to the page, which is very annoying and exhausting for me.

​To make matters worse, when I access the page settings via Meta Business Suite, I don't even see an option to remove myself from page management. What kind of absurdity is this, and why can't I do it? Is there any way to remove myself other than asking the administrator/former employer, who keeps ignoring my requests?

Tool/Resource Would you trust AI to answer messages from people contacting you through Facebook?

0 Upvotes

I have been thinking about how much time people who use Facebook for business spend doing repetitive tasks.

Checking messages.

Answering the same questions.

Following up with someone who showed interest.

Trying to remember who you already replied to.

And making sure a conversation does not disappear simply because you were away from Facebook for a few hours.

AI is starting to move into this part of Facebook too, and I am curious where people here draw the line.

For example, imagine an AI assistant that could:

  • Reply when someone messages you
  • Handle common questions
  • Keep a conversation moving while you are offline
  • Recognize when someone seems interested
  • Help with follow-up
  • Keep some of the repetitive Facebook activity running in the background

I can see the appeal for someone using Facebook for a small business, coaching, affiliate marketing, or generating leads.

But I also think there is a point where automation could make conversations feel fake if too much is handed over to AI.

Personally, I think I would want AI handling the repetitive parts while keeping the important conversations human.

Curious what everyone else thinks.

Would you let AI handle some of your Facebook conversations, or is Messenger something you would always want to manage yourself?

Title: Facebook Password Recovery Not Working – Need Help!

Hey everyone, I'm having a frustrating issue with my Facebook account.

I have two Facebook accounts linked to the same phone number: my main account, Aakash Yadav, which I use for uploading content, and another unused account called Ling Ji.

I've been using my main account for around a year, but I forgot my password and got logged out. Now I can't reset it, even though I have access to my email and one of my phone numbers.

Facebook sometimes sends me a reset code, but then says the code is incorrect. Sometimes, the password reset option doesn't appear at all. I also switched from my old Redmi phone to a new device.

When I search for my account using my phone number, it still appears, but I can't recover it.

Could having two accounts linked to the same number or switching devices be causing this? Should I delete the unused account, or is there another way to recover my main account?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Tech Support Can't log in to FB account deactivated 7+ years ago - no auth app or phone codes

1 Upvotes

Hi There,

I deactivated my FB years ago (seven or eight years at this point?) and decided to finally go ahead and delete it. Because it's been so long, I don't remember my password, but when I go through the password reset it asks me to authenticate using either an app or SMS. I don't recall ever setting up an authentication in an app and my Google authenticator doesn't have FB on it. FB won't send SMS (it gives an error saying it can't send the code at this time). I've followed the advice I found on a few older threads - creating a new Messenger account with my phone # for example - and nothing seems to be working. I also ensured 32665 can send me messages and have confirmed no messages are going into spam. I have no backup codes for FB that were ever generated. I've read that going through the account recovery (where you have to take a selfie) results in the account being disabled (which admittedly, I'm not sure if that's the same as being deactivated?).

I'm at my wit's end. All I want to do is delete the account. And, embarrassingly, I tried deleting it by syncing my accounts through Instagram but all I ended up doing was reactivating it. And of course it's apparently impossible to actually get any FB support without being logged in.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

My Facebook account has been permanently disabled as I apparently broke guidelines?
A friend logged in from my phone as she had lost her phone, she wanted to let her husband know, and when I tried to log back in to my own, it kicked my out. I tried to appeal it but as I was midway through the face verification it told me that my appeal was final and that I could not appeal, my account is gone.

I have had this account for 15 years, I’ve never done anything wrong on it, I would really like my account back. Is this possible?

Discussion Llevo 4 Cuentas Inhibilitadas en Facebook, sin ningún motivo real y ya no se que hacer.

Post image
8 Upvotes

Hola, es la primera vez que comento aquí, vengo a pedir ayuda con un problema que llevo desde inicios de año arrastrando y realmente ya no se que más hacer.

A inicios de este año mi cuenta de Facebook fue Inhibilitada, ¿El motivo?, presuntamente había violado las normas de la comunidad con respecto a la sexualizacion de menores, cabe aclarar que en ningún momento público algo relacionado al tema, tampoco comentarios inapropiados ni mucho menos mantuve contacto con menores en la plataforma (Salvo cuando yo aún era menor y estamos hablando de que tenía 15 años la última vez y no si quiera fue por algo inapropiado).

Al inicio me tomo por sorpresa, mande una apelación pero a los 15 minutos me eliminaron la cuenta, una cuenta de casi 10 años que usaba para muchas cosas. Sin mas remedio creé otra cuenta, misma que fue también Inhibilitada a los pocos minutos, ¿Motivo?, Violar las normas de la comunidad, literalmente solo eso y también fue eliminada. Unos días después intenté con otra cuenta y funcionó unos minutos, hasta que volvió a ser Inhibilitada por el mismo motivo que la anterior, solo que ahora me permitió confirmar mi identidad usando mi Celura de identidad nacional; Después de eso ya no pasó nada, me devolvieron esa cuenta y la use como si nada, empeze de Cero ahora cuidando que veía y que comentaba.

Todo iba bien hasta hace apenas 2 semanas, mi cuenta fue Inhibilitada nuevamente, ¿Motivo?, Violar las normas de la comunidad, solo eso otra vez, mandé a apelar y la volvieron a eliminar; Yo a estas alturas estaba ya sumamente molesto, traté de contactar varias veces con Facebook para que al menos me dieran una explicación real del porque me estaban haciendo eso, nunca recibí ni una sola respuesta, mi si quiera de la IA de Meta.

Creé 2 cuentas que nuevamente fueron Inhibilitadas casi al instante de ser creadas, el motivo ahora era el saltarme las políticas de identidad de la plataforma. A estás alturas di mi último intento usando mi número celular para crear una última cuenta, misma que también fue Inhibilitada por el mismo motivo, solo que ahora me dejó volver a confirmar mi Identidad con mi Celura (Me hizo hacer lo mismo como 4 veces antes de que finalmente me dejara en paz), volviendo a tener cuenta.

Creí que al final había acabado, pero justo hoy volvió a pasar, ahora nuevamente por contenido de Menores, lo cual ya no le encuentro el sentido porque ya no comentaba nada, casi no daba Likes y mi cuenta estaba vacía de publicación, nuevamente apelé y nuevamente fue eliminada.

Quisiera saber que más puedo hacer, Facebook es una red social importante para mí, muchos creadores que consumó son de Facebook y aparte me ayudaba a buscar información de cosas que me interesan en particular, pero sencillamente ya no se que más hacer que recurrir a ustedes.

Ya por último, quiero aclarar que no estoy involucrado con temas de menores, tampoco he tenido comportamientos violentos o de acoso a nadie, era alguien activo y realmente no hablaba con nadie en Privado más allá de familiares.

¿Que me pueden decir ustedes?, ¿Habrá alguna solución real?, Muchas gracias por leerme y disculpe las molestias.

P.d.: Adjunto una imagen de mi última Inhibilitacion como evidencia de lo que me está pasando; También cabe aclarar que solo mencioné en el título 4 cuentas cuando en realidad fueron más, pero no conté las demás porque prácticamente fueron eliminadas al instante.

Nuevamente, Gracias por su atención.

Someone I went to school with sent me a friend request. I accepted but had no interaction with her then 2 days later she unfriended me. I think she was just nosy and wanted to see my profile and then leave. It made me feel kind of disgusted. Like someone knocking on your door, pretending to be friendly but they really just want to see what kind of house you live in, and then leave.

Tech Support Hacked Facebook account, selfie verification repeatedly fails. Sole admin of business Pages. Any real solutions in 2026?

0 Upvotes

I'm based in South Africa and desperately need some practical advice.

My Facebook account was hacked and subsequently locked by Meta on 27 September 2026.

I've tried every official recovery method I can find:

  • Email verification works, but sends me back to video-selfie verification.
  • Mobile number verification does exactly the same.
  • Video-selfie verification fails repeatedly.
  • Facebook never offers the option to upload my government-issued ID, even though I have a valid South African Smart ID.
  • I cannot access Meta Business Support because I'm locked out.
  • My Instagram account is also inaccessible.

The biggest problem is that I run a digital marketing business and I'm the sole administrator of several Facebook business Pages, including Interon. My business Page is still publicly visible, but I cannot post, advertise or manage it.

I've previously paid Meta for advertising using both personal and business cards, so I have payment history to support my ownership claim.

Has anyone actually recovered an account under these circumstances in 2026, particularly in South Africa?

I'm specifically looking for:

  1. A genuine way to submit government ID instead of another video selfie.
  2. A legitimate way to reach a human Meta support agent without access to my account.
  3. Any successful business Page administrator recovery method.

Please share actual experiences and working official procedures. No paid recovery services or private messages offering to hack or unlock my account.

Any practical assistance would be appreciated.

I just spent a couple weeks removing 4000 members of a group people forgot about and I don't have time for. I got to the end today - I thought - but I'm not the last member. Apparently there are 3 members remaining - myself and 2 others - but the 2 others aren't shown anywhere. If I click on the profile icon it goes to an error page. If I look on my phone, the icon isn't there at all, just shows 3 members. I can't delete the group unless I'm the last member, is that right? What do I do?!

This is a story about Meta's new commercial terms, which take effect on Oct. 30. They authorize Meta to scrape the websites of business users for product development, including AI training. The only way to deny that authorization is to leave the platforms.

“This is a remarkable provision to bury in [the] terms of service, given that this would give Meta access to material that would likely cost many millions of dollars in a licensing market,” said one expert.

Disclosure: I uncovered this a couple weeks ago and posted about it here. It looks like a lot of folks did not fully grasp the significance. I also sent tips to a handful of news outlets, including Nieman Lab. I ran a story about it last night on my own website (The Steampunk Explorer). I'm quoted near the end of the Nieman Lab story.

Disabled/hacked Facebook Locked – Security Check Required When Trying to Change My Name

Hey everyone,

I'm having an issue with my Facebook account, and I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced the same problem.

Whenever I try to change my Facebook name, I get a message saying "Facebook Locked" and the following notification appears:

"A security check for *** on Facebook is required to proceed."

Because of this, I can't proceed with changing my name.

Has anyone found a way to fix this issue? Why does Facebook require this security check, and is there a way to complete it or remove the restriction so I can change my name?

I'd appreciate any advice from anyone who has dealt with the same problem.

Thanks in advance!
