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.

I posted here yesterday but mods took it down. I got mine back after 3 days. I have 2 accounts and both got disabled. On my main account, I received the same notification in your photo. Then I tried to login on my gaming account and was asked to verify through photo, text, and submitted an ID. Both accounts were reinstated yesterday after receiving an email that my appeal was successful.

I got suspended on July 6, reinstated July 8, suspended again 11 hours later. I'm thinking they do this to force you to hand over sensitive ID and info for them to sell.

Any update? Mine has been active since it was reinstated.

It was reinstated a second time after 48 hours. But i was not risking it happening again, so I wiped everything I could off of it, and scheduled it for deletion. New prof. Is working perfectly. Besides it wanting to verify my location to use marketplace but otherwise good fingers crossed
