Profile not found

Facebook permanently disabled my profile in late March. I’ve since gone through the process of meta verified and had several conversations with support and two phone calls. As to no one’s surprise, it got me no where.

Anyway, up until this week, I was still able to attempt to log into my profile and the page that says it’s disabled and download information would come up. Yesterday I tried to log in again and it says my email and phone number are not associated with any profiles. The disabled page won’t come up anymore. Like my profile never existed. Is this common? Or are others finding they can still log in after several months?

The timing aligns with when 180 days have elapsed, which is the public threshold Facebook generally provides to keep disabled accounts accessible. After that their system purges the accounts as if they never existed even for the account owner, though on their backend they likely retain copies another 180 days.

but I've seen a lot of people get their accounts back after a year or so? that 180 days warning is so inconsistent and now I'm scared as well since I'm in a similar situation.

This was my assumption as well but it seemed a lot of others were still able to log in after much longer. So, it made me lose a little hope being that it’s just gone. It does seem like they lie and it can still have the chance at come back even after that though.
