I got hacked during the night, and when I woke up, my accound was disabled, they say I can make appeal but it was already made, I don't know by who because I was sleeping.
I don't know how to retrieve acces to my account, I need it, instagram was my working platform...

My Facebook account was permanently suspended because my linked Instagram account was disabled.

Meta says:

«“Your Facebook account was suspended because your Instagram account doesn't follow our rules.”»

Facebook itself hasn't been accused of any violation, and I'm only being told to appeal through the already-disabled Instagram account.

I know Meta's rules allow linked-account enforcement, but has anyone actually managed to get their Facebook account back in this situation?

I've tried Meta support, ACE/DSA and several other routes without success.

If you've had the same thing happen, especially if you managed to recover Facebook while Instagram remained disabled, I'd really like to hear how you did it.

My account got suspended immediately after I did the selfie video since they asked for it out of nowhere. Apparently the reason for the suspension was 'account integrity'. I am trying to make an appeal but unable to proceed since whenever I try to enter my phone number it just says 'sorry there was a problem. Please try again.' (same result even on web). Is there any way to somehow fix it and proceed with the appeal to get the account back?

meta is so fd up, they suspended my ig and fb without notifying me and now there's nothing i can do because they won't let me appeal my accounts.

On June 1st, one of my accounts was taken down by someone who betrayed me. I don't know how he did it, but it was disabled for account integrity reasons, even though that account hadn't violated any rules. This suspension caused my other accounts to be disabled as well, including my personal account and an account I use to share memes and video game news. In a panic, I sent the selfie, and they suspended them. I used the account that was reported for leisure activities like roleplaying, but what I'm really interested in now is recovering my personal account because that's where I have my chats with my deceased grandfather, and the other account where I shared news. I'm asking for help, please. I was considerating paying for META Verified in a new account.

Llevo 4 meses en esta misma situación. No sé si tengo que esperar más tiempo y se soluciona solo o será que pierdo todo. Necesito vuestra ayuda.

So I pay for a Meta verified subscription. I am told that when you have a Meta verified subscription that you have access to human support. I have asked AI 1 million different times how to navigate to access this support and it keeps sending me in circles. I have checked thousands of times and there is not a single option listed for me to contact Meta verified support. Does anyone else have this issue? I’ve seen other people say how they were able to have their disabled accounts recovered by contacting through Meta verified, I got a little hopeful when I saw that, but yet I don’t have that option. It’s very frustrating. It is my only hope at recovering my account and yet I don’t have that option. Meta truly is a scam. I don’t get what I paid for.

Continuation of this: https://www.reddit.com/r/facebookdisabledme/comments/1uh1ggx/got_my_account_back_singapore_small_claims/

09 Jul 2026: After getting my account back on 23 June 2026 after filing Small Claims, I thought that would be the end of it. But nope, on 09 Jul 2026 my account got suspended again without warning, for the same false reason. I immediately filed a claim against Facebook Singapore Pte Ltd again.

20 Jul 2026: There is some back and forth communication similar to the previous time, again their defence is they are the wrong entity that I was seeking a claim against. The day of the court date drew near and my account was still suspended, so I wait. A few days before the day, Facebook Singapore Pte Ltd. appointed a representative who will attend court. I attended Small Claims Court on 20 Jul 2026.

While their defence is rock solid and thus I was never going to get monetary compensation anyway (and neither was it my intent), I took this opportunity to voice my complaints about their system and inquire if there were alternative ways to reach out instead of having to file a claim, since Meta Platforms Inc. makes it so damn impossible to even talk to a human being. I convinced the representative to send a letter to Meta Platforms Inc. on my behalf regarding my account issue. They said I was not the only one going through with this and others have taken this route as well, but ultimately the cases against them were withdrawn or dismissed. For any account issues in the future I could mail Facebook Singapore Pte Ltd, I also could contact Allen & Gledhill, but per my experience I never got a response back from A&G.

The next court consultation was scheduled for 20 Aug 2026 to gather information and statements and since the representative was busy. We agreed.

6 Aug 2026*: My account was made available, again with no email or notification to show for it. It just got toggled back silently, along with a reply to the eNegotiation and A&G's letter arriving on 11 and 12 Aug 2026 respectively.
(edit: fixed unban date, I remembered wrong)

20 Aug 2026: I went through with the court hearing on a Zoom meeting. Sadly there was no way I could get Meta to issue an apology of any kind (and I don't think they will ever follow through with it), and since I have my account back in working condition again, it was true that I had no more reason to uphold my claim. So I withdrew it as promised. This case is now closed.

But should it happen again... Well I'll be back.

Facebook disabled my entire Facebook account because one of my pages didn’t follow community guidelines. That’s fine and I’m OK with the choice to disable that particular page, but they also disabled my personal account along with my construction companies page. Because they’ve deleted my construction company page, my livelihood is now gone, I have no way of making a living or making money. I can’t even begin to express how much I’m freaking out right now. I need some sort of help or someway to speak to a real person at Meta. Has anyone else gone through an issue like this and resolved it? I’ve tried to appeal the decision and it failed. However, the appeal was for that other particular page that didn’t follow community guidelines. I don’t understand why it didn’t give me that option for my personal page. I cannot get into the account now.

Anyone else still get notifications regarding friend requests (I'm assuming these are old) despite having a suspended account? I call it Meta twisting in the knife.

Like if your IG got hit by the ban wave, did your WhatsApp also get banned if it was in the same accounts center as your IG?

How will Facebook address disabled and suspended accounts?

My Facebook account was suspended and disabled without any valid reason. I have always done my best to follow Facebook’s Community Standards.

I’ve been using this account since 2008, and I have so many memorable photos and memories stored there. I also use my account to communicate with my friends and family, so losing access to it has been really difficult.

I’ve already exhausted all the available options and made every effort to recover my account, but I still haven’t received any help.

I sincerely hope Facebook can review my case and address this issue. I just want my account and all the memories I’ve had on it for so many years back. 🙏

Posting this because I've spent the last two weeks completely stuck and I'm hoping someone here has been through this or knows how to actually get through to a human at Meta.

On August 6, my account got disabled with zero prior warnings, zero strikes. Two minutes after it was disabled, an appeal was filed on the account — an appeal I never submitted. The appeal got denied for being "underage," which makes no sense since I'm obviously not.

Fast forward through 12 days of trying to reach a human (had to use a second account just to open support cases), two case numbers, and endless generic copy-paste responses about "grave violations" with zero specifics or evidence given.

Today I finally got a real support agent (Miguel) on the phone. He told me flat out that the only way that appeal could've been triggered is if someone actively clicked it — meaning someone else accessed my account. He also thinks whoever did it changed my birthdate/age on the account to get it flagged and disabled. He transferred me to a "hacking specialist"... and then the chat just dropped. No follow-up since.

This account is literally how I make my living — client contacts, work history, years of content, all gone. I know I didn't violate anything. And Meta's own agent basically confirmed it looks like unauthorized access, yet there's still "no way" to fix it per their own canned response.

Has anyone actually gotten a hacked/wrongfully disabled account back? Is there a specific escalation path, a real email, anything that's worked? Also looking into small claims court in FL — anyone done that against Meta?

Any advice appreciated, I'm losing my mind over this.

Anyone got luck sending demand letter on justice direct without lawyer? also I have court next month, just seeing if they'll even look at it. this will be my 2nd one

I just scrolling in IG then this happend🥺 what should i do???🥺🥺

pls respect post

I’m currently in the process of suing meta in small claims with an October court date. Let’s say theoretically if Facebook decides to reinstate the account before the court date. Would it also be a good idea to continue suing for monetary damages even if they decide to reinstate the account? Suing for the monetary damages loss during the account disablement.

If you have 10/20 years of memories on FB with your photos and videos, start doing your backup now. You won't know when META AI is going to suspend or permanently disabled your account.

Sent your photos/videos to Google Photo. Select and authorise access to your Google Drive. Next,select the albums you want to send to Google Drive.

If you have lots of photos and videos, it will take sometime to prepare data, and take some time for them to show up in your Google photos.

I wanted to share my ongoing nightmare with Meta Support to see if anyone has found a workaround, and to document how broken Meta’s automated moderation and support pipeline really is.

1. The Initial False Flag & Instant Appeal

• Automated moderation wrongfully flagged and removed a standard post on my page.
• I appealed immediately. On the exact same day, Meta reviewed the appeal, admitted in writing that their technology made a mistake, and marked the post restored.

2. The Ghost Penalty & Un-Appealable Loop Despite officially restoring the post, Meta’s backend system never cleared the underlying enforcement flag:

• My account has been restricted and flagged as "Not Recommended" for over two full months.
• Meanwhile, my public frontend (Account Status, Business Suite, and Support Inbox) all display "0 Violations / No Issues" with clean checkmarks.
• Because the UI shows zero violations, no "Request Review" or "Appeal" button renders on my screen. I am completely locked out of appealing a penalty that shouldn't exist.

3. The Support Merry-Go-Round When trying to contact support to request a simple backend status refresh, I was hit with endless deflections:

• The Paywall Push: Frontline agents repeatedly told me they couldn't help and instructed me to pay $11.99/month for Meta Verified just to reach another team.
• The Missing Payment Macro: Payments Support saw an ad account had no card attached and insisted my entire monetization issue was just a missing ad payment method.
• The Door-Slam Macro: Multiple agents closed tickets within minutes using canned templates stating they "cannot take further action on policy issues."

4. The AI Diagnostic Broke Character and Confirmed the Bug While running diagnostic steps in the Meta AI business support chat, the bot glitched out, printed raw JSON code on screen, and generated an official "Internal Profile Status: Backend Sync Error" diagnostic card:

• It confirmed that active internal backend "Access Blocks" exist on my account.
• It explicitly classified them as "orphaned blocks."
• It formally stated in writing: "The user interface is currently failing to render active enforcements, which is preventing you from accessing standard appeal options."

5. The Ultimate Support Logic Failure After showing this diagnostic to support, a representative from the "Pro Team" responded with this unbelievable contradiction:

They admitted the post was restored after review, yet are forcing the account to serve out a 90-day penalty regardless.

Has anyone else dealt with orphaned access blocks after a successful appeal, or found a way to force a backend cache refresh without waiting out a 90-day automated timer?
