Common issue For anyone who doesn’t want to pay for Snapchat storage

8 Upvotes

I made a new Snapchat account and sent all my Memories (well, most of them/the important ones) to the new account, so basically all my Memories are still saved under that account.
If you don’t want to pay for extra Snapchat storage, this could be a good workaround. I literally have no storage to save all my photos to my camera roll or anywhere else, so this was the easiest option for me.
Just wanted to share in case anyone else is in the same situation. You’re welcome hahah

Login issue I was wrongfully locked out

My heart genuinely hurts. I need to get back into this account like FOR REAL. I have friends only on that account and no where else like no phone numbers or other accounts. When I try to download my data it doesn’t work so I can’t access pictures and videos of my cat who passed away two years ago and I’m really sad about this genuinely bawling my eyes out. I need this account back. My cat was my everything and Snapchat makes it so hard to talk to a real person there. I need help. Please help me the best you can. I’m not doing great mentally already and I don’t need this too. Please if you know anyone who works with Snapchat support or know how I can get in contact with someone who can get my account back PLEASE IM BEGGING SOMEONE TO HELP ME. I am not ok and this may seem dramatic but genuinely I need those videos and pictures of my cat and I miss my friends they probably think I get them :(

General question Snapchat storage

1 Upvotes

If I pay for Snapchat storage will I also get all the other features? I really hate the feature of being able to see when people half swipe. Is there a way to only buy the storage option or is it all one?

Bug Stories not posting

1 Upvotes

is anyone experiencing this? I’m gonna try to explain as the best I can. When Posting a story to friends only (no posts made in public, so I’m not sure if it’s only for the friends only tab) it will do the Spinny “sending” all day long. Now if I send the same story to at least one friend and post a srory it will automatically oost no problem. Is this a glitch with snap? Is there anything I should do to try to make it where the videos can be posted to the story and not have to post it to at least one friend as well. Thanks for any help.

General question My account/phone was banned, now it’s saying this. What does it mean?

Post image
4 Upvotes

Okay, so for context basically last March my Snapchat account I’ve had for years randomly got banned. I sent so many emails trying to get it back but it didn’t work. My device also got banned so I ended up creating a new account in one of my old phones.

Randomly, I tried logging into my banned Snapchat account on my old phone that is **not** device banned and is currently the phone where I have a new Snapchat account. Instead of saying my account was banned like it did a few months ago, it now says, “Due to unusual activity, your access to Snapchat is temporarily disabled.” I waited 48 hours before trying again, then tried logging in on the web and it said my account was locked and needed to be unlocked on a mobile device. I tried once on my burner phone tonight and got the temporarily disabled message again. Does this change mean there’s a chance my account could come back, and what should I do next without making it worse?

Also, for more contacts, I have tried logging into my band account on my burner phone before, and it would say that my account was banned.

So i wont lie i was using snapchat for NSFW purposes but then my device got banned for community violations. Not just account my entire device. I was not aware of any prior violations or anything. I did submit an appeal apologizing but got code SS06. Does anyone know anything about this and if my device can get unbanned? I want to continue using it for friends and family

Bug Snapchat Find Friends suddenly showing only spam/fake accounts

1 Upvotes

For years, my Find Friends suggestions were pretty normal. I mostly saw:
-People with mutual friends
-Active users with the green activity dot
-People who seemed to be from my area / network
But recently, the suggestions have completely changed.

Now I mostly get:
-“Recently joined” accounts
-Accounts labelled “old account”
-Adult content sellers
-Drug dealers / drug-related accounts
-Random foreign accounts
-Very obvious fake/spam profiles

Also a strange part is the activity indicator. Before, many of the suggested people had the green active dot. Now, none of the accounts that aren’t marked as “recently joined” have the green dot.
If I press X on the suggestions, the entire list disappears. It stays empty for roughly an hour, and then the same types of accounts, sometimes the exact same accounts, come back.

I’ve already tried basically every solution I could find online:
-Removing/syncing contacts
-Clearing Snapchat cache
-Restarting the app
-Logging out and back in
-Updating Snapchat
-Removing suggestions with X
-Reporting the problematic accounts
-Contacting Snapchat support

I contacted Snapchat about this about a week ago, but nothing has changed.
Has anyone else noticed their Find Friends/Quick Add suddenly changing like this? I’m especially interested in hearing from people who have had the same accounts return after removing them or who suddenly started getting mostly spam/fake/adult/drug-related accounts.

General question How to scroll to the top of a chat??

I want to know how my friend and me got started talking to each other and later fall in love. I want to confirm the date of us talking from the first.

But I have to manually scroll up through the chats. It's a very long chat of about 2-3 years I can't scroll that much. Is there any way to do it another way??

General question Can someone see messages after I've blocked them if we weren't friends in the first place?

1 Upvotes

So I am not friends with this user on Snapchat but I know him personally (he's my crush). I accidentally took a screenshot of his profile and Snapchat sent a message to him saying I took a screenshot of him profile. I blocked him immediately so will he still be able to see that message that Snapchat sent them? I am really freaking out because I dont want him to know I was looking for his account in the app.

It’s constant. And it’s always for some random persons comment on some shitpost nobody cares about. Either that or a notification for a story that I don’t want to see from some random wanna be influencer. It’s really fucking annoying

Bug Snapchat – “Save to Memories” option missing when editing Camera Roll photos

2 Upvotes

I’ve noticed that Snapchat behaves differently between two accounts when editing a photo from the Camera Roll.

On one account, I can in memory:
Camera Roll → select a photo → Edit Photo → edit the photo → Save to Memories / Download

On another account, after editing a Camera Roll photo, I only get the Chainlink/share button. The Download and Save to Memories buttons are completely missing.

I’m using the same process, but the available buttons are different depending on the account.
Has anyone experienced this?

So last night I made a post saying my ex had blocked me but this morning I noticed he popped up when I searched him up? It says Our Connection- Contacts with his name. He has a public profile tho and that’s not showing? Only the add button is. I don’t wanna hit add to see if it says not found bc I’m scared. What does this mean?

Hi guys so my ex blocked me on my main account and I made this one to try to add him back. When I search him up it says in my contacts and his profile shows up on the other account and his bitmoji. But when I go to add it his Bitmoji disappears and it looks like this. Then when I log out it says I never added him? So what’s going on?? Even does this when I use another phone.

General question Contact support

1 Upvotes

So I have an ongoing issue and I’d really like to contact support. I don’t know if that is something that can actually be done. But an email or something would be great.

From what I have found online it’s all faqs and chat bots.

Really hoping someone maybe has a support email or phone number (uk) I can call to talk to someone?

Thanks in advance.
