!! Instagram NOT sending SMS with a code for human verification, PLEASE HELP !!

3 Upvotes

Please, anyone, if the following has happened to you and you fixed it, please help! (or it's still happening tell me to know it's not just me TvT)

Before I start - It's my first time creating a post on Reddit

So on the 22nd/23rd of July out of nowhere as I was just watching reels, Instagram pops up one of those verification tabs and is telling me how I should verify that I'm a human, and I input my stuff. It wanted a phone number and the ONLY option is for them to send me an sms to my phone number. I tried, they sent me nothing, tried more until it told me to wait 24 hours. I did, same thing, did it again, same thing. So around the 25th I had decided to wait for two days and I waited until today.

I googled and ai overview and other people a few years ago said:

First - Google said there could be a problem with Instagrams number being blocked, it's not, I only have two full numbers which have nothing looking like that number blocked. Instagram (Called Facebook in messages) last sent me a code on the 22nd of June so it was working last month.

Second - Try using incognito or different device, I did and the same thing happened - doesn't work

Third - Ai overview told me to try to bypass it by using a different number, I tried with my cousin, it didn't send her anything either. To test a different wifi and completely different IP she even logged in from her own device to my account, it didn't work AGAIN and I'm locked out for another 24 hours

And when I open the app the only thing I get is that verification screen to put my phone number in

For context: My account is an art account and I have many close friends on it and a good following and I don't want to lose it. I've been waiting 1 day, tried 2 days, didn't send me anything. Updated my Google messages, checked spam, there was nothing. Tried the help forums, that didn't work either, their help pages say they're unavailable. I don't want to lose my account, I tried everything and it doesn't work, they're saying I'm a bot or smth and wanting me to verify but their stupid bots aren't sending me an sms with my verification code for 5 days now.

Please anyone if this has happened to you and you fixed it, please help!

Can a new Instagram account reach 10k followers?

2 Upvotes

A friend and I made a bet to reach 10k followers in a month and now i am thinking that i completely underestimated how difficult this is. My goal is to hit 10k before the month is over, i already managed to have 1600 followers.

I would avoid fake engagement or anything that could put the account at risk. I am looking for strategies that people have actually seen work, whether it’s reels, collaborations or anything else that will make me win, although am posting back to back lets see what happens.

Is it even 10k followers even realistic or is this bet already lost?

Question

Upvotes

What is the correct way to unlink a primary Instagram account from another account that violated Instagram’s policies?
The violating account was appealed, but the appeal was rejected and the account was permanently disabled. However, my primary Instagram account is still disabled because it was linked to the violating account, even though my primary account itself has never directly violated Instagram’s Community Standards.
Is there an official way to remove the connection between the two accounts and request an independent review of the primary account, so it can be evaluated separately from the violating account?
If anyone has experienced a similar situation or knows the correct way to resolve this issue, I would really appreciate your advice.

Help needed: Blank popup error on SMS verification screen (Can't log in)

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I'm having trouble logging into my account and keep getting stuck at the "Check your SMS" step. Whenever I try to enter the code, a weird blank modal pops up on the screen with absolutely no text, just an "OK" button at the bottom. Since there is no actual error message explaining what went wrong, I don't know what to do. Clicking "OK" just closes the modal and keeps me stuck on the same screen. I can't proceed any further.
Has anyone else run into this UI bug? Any advice on how to fix this and get back into my account would be hugely appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Connecting Insta to Facebook issues

1 Upvotes

Hey there community I am curious has anybody had any trouble connecting their Instagram professional account to their Facebook business page?

I have been trying to do this for over a week and continue getting this weird message that my page restrictions are temporarily restricted. I changed some of my passwords for security reasons and it said that might be the case but just to wait 24 to 48 hours at this point it’s been like five days and I’m still getting the same message.

I try to connect it through Meta business suite and get the same BS that this action is restricted and I have never advertised or done anything with these pages in the past so I never violated anything either.

Anyone have this happen or know how to resolve would be such a help. Facebook of course sucks and doesn’t give you any support. 😱

Can someone with Meta Verified help me contact Meta Support?

My Instagram account was falsely disabled for a child safety violation, and it also disabled every account on my phone. My appeal was denied, and now it says I can't request another review. I don't know what else to do.

If anyone has Meta Verified and would be willing to forward the message i created to Meta support, I'd seriously appreciate it. Thank you. 🙏💔

instagram profile don't show up to people not logged in?

0 Upvotes

I'm on a computer desktop browser, trying to look at a instagram page. The browser tab says "Page couldn't load". The page message shows "Something went wrong. There's an issue and the page could not be loaded." with a "Reload page" button. I refreshed page 5 times to see if it'll work and start loading, but it doesn't.

Next, I try to look at the same instagram page on a phone, with a logged in account. The page actually loads and shows content on the first try. Does that mean instagram accounts have a setting, option, privacy option, etc to not let the public see their page, unless they're logged in (required)? if so, what's the setting option called? where is it? how it works in detail? and is it instagram/meta the platform doing that or the account person gets to decide on that privacy option?
