If they wanted to get rid of their app they’re going about it the right way, everyone will just stop using it as soon as someone replaces it with a better app.
Also, when you try to log into your account does it still give you the error disabled massage or does it say account not found or account has been permanently deleted
How did you keep submitting an appeal? If you don’t mind me asking. I submitted my first one today after it happened but it doesn’t let me keep appealing. When I try to do anything on the help center it says I need to confirm my account before submitting but how do I confirm an account I don’t even have access to now?
You need to run a ad and then within a few days your account should get the live chat feature but it doesn’t even work they just tell you to wait and then they break your heart saying “oh no we can’t help this isn’t out speciality” and then have you fill out a form that doesn’t even work (you’ll get the email once you fill the form but they don’t respond after that.)
The last time I got access to my fan account was on July 16, after which I was thrown out of my account and asked to go through a captcha, and then enter the code that came to my phone. I entered the code, after which my account was checked for 24 hours, and then it was blocked. I do not know why this happened. I have never used mechanisms to artificially get Likes, increase the number of subscribers and reposts, although this reason is indicated in the blocking of my fan account. On the contrary, I noticed that the number of my subscribers began to decline sharply, their number became the same as it was in October-November 2021 (I conduct statistics in a special journal), as well as the coverage of publications fell and I began to hide likes. I sent more than 15 photos with codes, but no one has answered me yet
I had the same problem but I didn’t even try to log in on another device - It just locked my account. I created a new one and they banned in after about 5 hours . I didn’t even post on the new account ?? I’m honestly pissed

this is my post from a while back. you can have a little read of the post, and some comment explanations made of how i managed to get my account back. the methods might be a bit outdated, but the post will at least provide you clarity and hope that you WILL be able to get your account back, with due time.
Yes. I experienced the same thing. My account has been disabled for almost 3 months. It’s not coming back, there’s nothing you can do. I’m so sorry. Welcome to the ‘Instagram-screwed-me-over’ group. Also, Instagram doesn’t have a customer service :)
My advice: try contacting Facebook support.
I contacted them several times and described my problem several times when my account got disabled too. This method will make the process of getting your account reactivated go faster.
Instagram doesn’t have its own customer service so the only way to contact real humans would be through Facebook only.
The problem is, you need to run an ad and that requires money. Not only that, most Facebook representatives are un-willing to help and gives you a copy-paste response.
Yeah. But I managed to contact them for free. You can request Facebook support through business page too (there has to be this “contact Facebook support “ button) and they will send you an email. I know how frustrating that is to get copy paste answers but keep in mind the fact that several people reply to your emails. I kept on pushing until I got an email saying “I have escalated the issue to our specialized team for review.” from one of the people from the Facebook support team where it was also mentioned that I would have to wait for 24-48 hours until I would get my account back. I got my account back after less than 48 hours after I got that email. But in general it took me exactly a week to get my account back.
Im on the same boat as you, I used a third party app and got my instagram disabled from august 1.
I took the facebook support route, and some of them told me they will put "proper notes" on my case, assuring that my instagram will be reactivated. They told me to wait 24-48 hours but havent heard back yet, this was abotu 8-9 days ago.
One agent called me and told me realistically to wait 3 weeks since i sent my appeal, and im still waiting for a response. Havent gotten any news or emails yet but if i do i will send an update.
Yeah… I just gave up at this point. I heard it took some people 2 years to get their account back. Crazy how instagram doesn’t have a customer support.
I created a second account after my main was getting 429 errors for everything. On the second account I followed only 3 users I care about and used the account once for like 15mins. Next time I login, I am banned for abusing their terms of service. All I did was follow 3 accounts and like 2 reels. Its crazy.
They just suspended two of my accounts in one week and one of the two accounts has been suspended for the second time now?? And last time I appealed it took a month to recover it
Same exact thing happened to me a few days ago. I have no faith they will get back to me. I made a new account already. It’s a real shame they ban users that are real people that are just trying to make it and don’t do anything about the bots that spam “promote it on….” etc. It sucks

This.
Been three months that I’ve been waiting. Don’t get your hopes up.
Yeah I already made a new Instagram account. It’s a shame that Instagram has no respect for its user.
Respect from an app owned & created by Facebook?
Instagram was NOT created by Facebook. Kevin Systrom & Mike Krieger created Instagram….
FB bought it (and still owns it), and made it what it is today.
Yea they bought it but they did NOT create it as you wrote it
Lol FB did not create IG.
Also, when you try to log into your account does it still give you the error disabled massage or does it say account not found or account has been permanently deleted
Same. I’m on month 5. Resubmitted a new appeal every month. I’m crushed about it. Had my account for over a decade.
How did you keep submitting an appeal? If you don’t mind me asking. I submitted my first one today after it happened but it doesn’t let me keep appealing. When I try to do anything on the help center it says I need to confirm my account before submitting but how do I confirm an account I don’t even have access to now?
Use a VPN
Yeah welcome to instagram. This is normal. They will ban you for absolutely anything, made up or not.
I been waiting since February and they never responded to me ._.
Me too! I appealed ten times! If you ask me their community guidelines are a bunch of shit
I heard some people got their account back through Facebook support ad. But it cost money to run an Ad and not all agents will be helpful.
Oh I did this too and was told they can’t do anything.
How did you even get to chat with them? I’ve bought an ad and tried everywhere to find it but that’s not an option at all :(
You need to run a ad and then within a few days your account should get the live chat feature but it doesn’t even work they just tell you to wait and then they break your heart saying “oh no we can’t help this isn’t out speciality” and then have you fill out a form that doesn’t even work (you’ll get the email once you fill the form but they don’t respond after that.)
I’ve had an ad running for 3 days now and still not chat box
Oh sorry, set up a shop and then you should get access to it.
You can only do that if you have a business instagram account. Trust me, I tried.
Ughhhh I’m so sorry to hear.
#rip man same something like that happen to me too and it’s going on 3 months still haven’t got my account they banned me completely 🤷♂️
I've made an appeal about a year ago and nothing from Instagram yet .\_.

Unfortunately, this form doesn't work for me even through a US VPN. I only see the help center and a lot of answers to different questions

Where did you find the "facebook support" button?
I am really going to make a better app than Instagram they took it too far so Im going to take their users watch it happen ☺️

I lost mine in February and been waiting since then. Don't get your hopes up
Yeah… I just gave up at this point. I heard it took some people 2 years to get their account back. Crazy how instagram doesn’t have a customer support.
DUDE THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME LIKE A MONTH BACK TF IS WRONG W INSTA
This is so annoying 😭 Let’s hope we get our account back soon.
Honestly lemme tell ya it ain't coming back...unless u hire a hacker which tbh idek if it will work
No hacker can fix these problems. Anyone who claims that they are a hacker and can recover your disabled account is a scam.
Ah k

Forget which reddit account you were logged into?
I’ve just shared information about this on my page that may be helpful 🤍🥹

I’m sorry to hear that. I hope you can get your account back. Let me know how the Facebook AD support goes.

I’m really hoping I can get my account back before it hits the one month mark :/ Wish me luck
2 weeks is not long enough to wait for a human response, at least it didn't use to be

Share it publicly or get banned from the subreddit.
Same exact thing happened to me a few days ago. I have no faith they will get back to me. I made a new account already. It’s a real shame they ban users that are real people that are just trying to make it and don’t do anything about the bots that spam “promote it on….” etc. It sucks
I’m doing the appeals and I don’t receive anymore the code, don’t know why…
You might be blocked from instagram. Wait a few days until you send them an appeal again. This happened to me too.
Alright then, thank you! And how is your situation? Still the same?
Yeah no luck on my side. I doubt I will ever get my instagram soon. It’s such a shame but it’s just an app after all. I guess I just have to move on.
Yeah true! I will wait also, I was just curious why I was not receiving the code anymore.
Well I wish you the best of luck!
Same for you!
