Facebook account recovery in the US

The right route depends on whether you were hacked, lost your email or phone, or got disabled.

Updated

Facebook account recovery in the US starts with the message you see. Hacked accounts go through Facebook’s hacked-account page. Lost email or phone goes through the login help flow from a device you used before. Disabled accounts need the appeal on the notice, before the deadline it shows.

Hacked

The hacked-account page.

Lost email or phone

Login help from a known device.

Disabled

Appeal from the notice.

What to send

Please do not send passwords, login codes, card numbers or access tokens.

How it works with Unbanz

  1. Message us on WhatsApp or email with your Facebook profile link and what happened to the account.
  2. We tell you honestly whether this is something we can help with.
  3. We prepare the recovery request and the supporting details for Facebook’s official process.
  4. We stay in touch while you wait. Meta makes the final decision, and nobody can promise the outcome.

Who this is for

Staying safe

Nobody needs your password or login codes to help you. If someone in your DMs offers to fix it, asks you to log in through their link, or wants to be paid in gift cards, walk away. Unbanz never asks for logins. We are an independent paid service, not affiliated with Meta: payment is upfront, with a 100% refund if the case fails. For Facebook and Instagram cases we work through our contacts at Meta, and Meta makes the final decision.

Local questions, answered (2026)

Which ID does Facebook accept in the US?

Meta’s list changes, but a US driver’s license, state ID or passport is the usual choice. Make sure the name matches the profile. Often Facebook asks for a video selfie instead of a document.

Disabled and Facebook shows no ID option?

Do the video selfie if offered, once, in good light. If nothing is offered, screenshot the screen with the date and avoid opening new accounts while you wait.

Hacked and disabled in the US: who do I tell?

Use facebook.com/hacked first, then appeal the disable. Report the hack or scam to the FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov and the FBI’s IC3 at ic3.gov.

Where do I check status in Accounts Center?

Settings, then Accounts Center, then Account status. If you cannot log in, the notice on the login screen has the review button.

Is there an outside appeal in the US?

There is no outside appeal body for Meta account decisions in the US, so Meta’s own review is the only formal route.

CLIENTS

What clients say

Updated November 2026

The Facebook appeal still starts from the notice you see when you log in: choose the option to disagree or request a review, and complete any check Meta asks for, such as a video selfie or an ID upload. Meta states that you generally have 180 days to appeal a suspension. If the screen offers no appeal, see what to do with no appeal button and the Facebook appeal links directory.

I emailed my appeal letter to Meta. Did it arrive?

Meta does not process account appeals by email. Paste a short version of your letter into the appeal field shown in the app, Account Status or Business Support Home.

What to send us

Send it on WhatsApp or to team@unbanz.com.

QUICK ANSWERS

Good to know.

Is there a Facebook phone number in USA?

Meta does not offer a phone line for personal account recovery. Be careful with numbers found online; many are scams.

My profile manages business pages. What now?

Add a second admin to the pages if anyone still has access, and see our guide on disabled profiles that manage pages.

Can Meta Verified help?

Meta Verified includes account support, but you need access to an account to subscribe.

Do I need to share my Facebook password?

No. Your password and login codes stay with you. Unbanz works from your public username, the notice and the details you send. Anyone who asks for your login is not someone to work with.

How do I contact Unbanz about Facebook account recovery?

WhatsApp +1 934 201 2490 or email team@unbanz.com. Send your username and a screenshot of the notice, if there is one.
