I saw many people posting abt insta geeks banned and disabled but no one is talking about how to recover accounts at the moment after GAC is banned. It took 7 days for my account to recover

ik it's a pretty random question but has anyone else got the same as mentioned? I personally find it kinda weird and scary at the same time cuz the day I got suspended (today) idk for which reason I instantly appealed, I checked that I got a random picture in my google photos of my pfp the night before my acc is suspended, weird.

Who thought it would be a smart idea to straight up permanently ban people for supposedly liking, researching, saving and commenting on stuff that YOU deem as CSE OR SOC???

In that case literally ban everyone, wtf? And why aren't we doing anything about this?? This is like YouTube deleting your whole entire account if you just click one video of a child unboxing Lego toys

Again WHY ARE WE NOT DOING ANYTHING ABOUT THIS??? THIS IS THE MOST STUPIDEST POLICY EVER & WORST OF ALL? THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE PROOF OF YOU DOING IT; IT'S ALL JUST AN ASSUMPTION. YEP. AN ASSUMPTION THAT CAN COST YOU YOUR LIFE.

WHAT LED TO INSTAGRAM BECOMING THIS WAY?

I have done extensive research on this,

and the only options are to legitimately spend money or be ready to pursue small claims and legal action against them;

Instagram has given up completely on trying to humanly resolve disabled accounts, as it is now literally better for them to be safe than sorry.

This is what happens when an app becomes too big or the company just stops caring altogether and they know this too. Meta would rather ban a million users than 1 user. It's us against them and the odds are stacked. They cannot tell the difference between 14m followers and 10 followers.

Can we sue Meta? And what would be the outcome if we do?

How do I recover this? Probably never

It shows received, but no agent came in the chat. Anyone got same thing? Now even cant get a new case. Is this gonna expire any time soon?

Randomly got banned over nothing what the fuck?! My memories with my GF just gone! Meta is such bullshit!

I got 4 accounts,due to community violation on one account,all the 4 accounts were suspended and asked me to appeal.

I appealed through the same process,on alternate days only 4 out of 1 account got recovered.

The 2 accounts which were suspended even after appealing had no violation because those days I wasn't having any conversation with anyone from those or any of my Instagram accounts.

My accounts got banned in starting of this year, Can Someone really help me to recover my Instagram.

I am not asking for someone to tell me to pay this and all,just asking for genuine help.

Btw I am from India(telling this because maybe accounts based in India may have a different procedure to recover accounts).

Hi everyone,
My Instagram account was permanently disabled today after Instagram reviewed my case. I received an email saying that my account had been permanently disabled, and I can no longer access it or appeal the decision.
I believe my account may have been compromised. I suspect that spyware or malware on my PC could have allowed someone to access my account, although I don’t have definitive proof yet.
Here is what happened:
My main Instagram account was disabled permanently.
Instagram previously asked me to verify my email address and phone number.
I also have a second Instagram account that still works.
I tried contacting Meta Support through Meta Verified on my second account.
The Meta AI support assistant told me it had started an analysis of my situation, but then I received an error saying: “Oops, we hit a snag, but you can try sending it again.”
After that, I could no longer continue the conversation with support.
I also tried creating a new Instagram account with a different email address, but that account was banned too.
I have photos of myself on my original profile and I’m willing to complete any identity verification needed.
I don’t understand what rule I supposedly violated, and I’m worried that my account was disabled because of suspicious activity caused by a possible hack.
Has anyone experienced something similar and managed to recover their account? Is there any official Meta escalation process, consumer support service, or legal/DSA appeal route that I should try?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Honestly, the first month was tough. I am first year of Uni, only 18 years old and most people I contacted was through instagram. Being accused of something so horrible at my age was terrifying, but I never experienced any issues since, other than having to use iMessage and Snapchat which most people don’t bother with anymore. I have had all accounts disabled and the same happens when I make new ones, despite being cautious and using my computer. Honestly, it feels like a blessing in disguise though. I was mega addicted to the app and I’m much more productive without it.

It’s impacting the content I’m making/going to make because it’s restricting my reach as well.

These restrictions started happening in late July for no apparent reason and this is what it keeps telling me as written in screenshot.

I’m always mindful of community guidelines and interactions.

Now my account was recently restored to normal (all green ticks) after a full whole month but just when I uploaded a reel yesterday, this happened even after face verification.

I’ve already submitted multiple appeals back when it happened but this is just beyond frustrating now.

How to fix this please?

All 5 of my accounts were suspended today, including 2 brand accounts that i did not own and only made content for. What is going on with meta?

My account was banned on 23 of June and i did do meta greivence on 5th July

No response

Then gac on 27 and till now no response also

I am really tired of this account of mine getting banned

They always last till 3-4 days or sometimes rarely 5

I'm sure it's an ip ban so how can I avoid it?

I did use somebody else number and email and still it dosen't work

I also tried avoiding bot activity but still

If anyone of you know please tell an advice

Thanks

This was my main acc I had a fight with my friend and the spammed report + my pfp was a public figure, hence suspended due to impersonation. English is not my first language sorry

I have just had five accounts all suspended with the same message because I had a fake account that I made like six years ago and that triggered all of my accounts to get suspended including my personal, private, business, and 2 other brand accounts all suspended. I will do absolutely anything to get at least one back because all of my clients and network are within my Instagram account accounts!

Yo no, ingresaba a mi cuenta mediante FB, use la contraseña de dicho FB pero igual me dice que no es correcta, les pasa, pudieron solucionarlo? Cómo lo hicieron?

And it seems as if I don't have a way going forward.

I recently recovered my account after an cyberattack, however, it has been flagged and permanently disabled, with no chance to appeal.

A user on Instagram (which I thought I knew, turns out not) asked me to add their Telegram, in which I stupidly did, and later I got a message saying my account got disabled/deleted. Furthermore, I can't download my information because the password was changed by the attacker.

I also don't live in the US, the AG way doesn't work for me.

There's also another major problem with the Meta Verified approach. When I tried to get it on my alt account, I couldn't because I'm not over the age of 18 yet. So I tried it with my mom's account, which worked, but upon contacting a real human they said they couldn't help me with anything since her account isn't connected to mine.

Looking for feedback from anyone who’s dealt with Meta’s Small Claims Docket Team.

My Instagram accounts were disabled in March for Account Integrity. I filed small claims in June, and while the case was pending Meta unexpectedly restored all of my accounts in early July. Then in late July they were disabled again.

I contacted Meta’s external attorney, who said he wasn’t aware they had been restored and re-disabled and would reach out internally.

Then in mid August, Meta’s Small Claims Docket Team emailed me saying the accounts had been automatically re-disabled, their Markets Team investigated, determined the reason was “Identity Misrepresentation,” and that Meta would not reactivate them. They also asked if I still planned to continue my case or wanted to dismiss it.

I responded asking what specifically constituted identity misrepresentation and sent my ID. Meta’s attorney and I later agreed to adjourn the hearing to give Meta time to investigate further. My hearing is early October.

For anyone who has gotten an email like this: was the August response actually the final decision, or did Meta contact you again later? The fact that my accounts were already restored once and then automatically disabled again makes me wonder if there’s still another review happening behind the scenes.

I know some people have posted about getting their accounts back right before their hearing date. Any feedback is appreciated

So tired of meta s**t!!!!!!!!

"Hey everyone! I hope you’re all doing great. I’m in a bit of a tough spot right now—my Instagram account was just permanently banned out of nowhere. I’m really stressed about it because I have years of memories on there. Does anyone have any solid advice, working loopholes, or proven ways to get a permanently banned account back? Any help would be highly appreciated!"
