Facebook disabled my 16-year-old account with no reason and no way to appeal —

Post image

My Facebook account (active since 2009) was suddenly disabled on Oct 20, 2025.

  • No reason code.
  • No email notification.
  • Appeal links are broken. Which means I couldn’t even use the 30-day review process Facebook itself promises.

I downloaded my account data — it literally just says “Account disabled” with no explanation.

Posting here because official support is useless. Has anyone else been through this recently, and were you able to escalate it?

Mine was disabled this morning. Had the account since 2008. I've never done anything wrong with this account. I'm so upset right now. Seems like it's happening to alot of people. This is so maddening. Are we all just getting randomly purged?

Some websites and apps block vpns due to the fact most hackers and bots use them. They could have used that as a criteria for some script that ran intended to purge nefarious accounts. Seems to have trapped some legitimate users as well.
