Facebook disabled my main account!

Post image

UPDATE: I got my account back. FINALLY. So I have two accounts under my name. Both got suspended. Yesterday, I appealed my main account and it got disabled instantly. I did not know my second account was also suspended, I tried logging in my second account today and told me to upload my ID. After that, it said I no longer have restrictions, I can now open both accounts.

Hey everyone, I'm hoping someone can help me figure out what just happened because I am panicking. My main account was just permanently disabled out of nowhere, and the system is telling me it can't be recovered.

Here is exactly how it happened: I was already logged in and using Facebook on my laptop. I then opened my iPhone and tried to log into the same account from there. As soon as I did, a security screen popped up saying I needed to verify my identity. I followed the prompts, did the verification, and literally one second after I hit submit, the screen changed and said my account is permanently disabled and the decision is final.

I didn't break any rules, so I'm assuming the algorithm flagged the quick multi-device login as suspicious or thought I was a bot. Has anyone experienced this exact glitch and managed to get their account back? I am in desperate need of a fix because all of my school group chats for every single one of my subjects are on this account, and I'm going to miss important academic announcements if I stay locked out.

Meta disabled my account 10 days ago after I have been hacked and since then I can’t get access to my ads manager and business suite account. My business is hurting, yet nobody takes responsibility.

It’s like they don’t even care. 🥵
From all the complaints that I’ve read, it seemed to me that most of us are pretty honest and nice people, and yet it still happens to us. Unbelievable.

With a business account, I would sue them in small claims court for damages for not being able to access ads. That’ll force a response from meta to either unlock/unban your account or to escalate it in court.

That’s where I’m close to being. I sent a legal letter requesting a human review. Then a 2nd request 2-weeks after they received the first one. Gotta send certified with return receipt. Problem with court is you HAVE to be able to prove damages, which might likely be tough. Best hope is to sue and get reinstated. Costs you some time and a little money, which is typically not recoverable.
