Facebook disabled for suspicious activity?

Typical triggers

• A login from a new country, device or VPN.
• Bursts of friend requests, messages or posts.
• A hacker using the account.
• A tool or extension acting on the profile.

What to do

1. Open the notice and complete the identity steps.
2. Write a short explanation of what you were doing, based on your own recall.
3. Remove tools and log out of unknown sessions if you can reach them.
4. If the account was hacked, say so clearly.

What to send

• Your Facebook profile link or the name on the profile.
• A screenshot of the message or error, with the date visible.
• Which email address or phone number is on the account (just which one, never a code).
• What happened before it started, in a few lines.

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 a screenshot of the message.
2. We tell you honestly whether this is something we can help with.
3. We prepare the appeal and the supporting details, to go through Facebook’s own channels.
4. We stay in touch while you wait. Meta makes the final decision, and nobody can promise the outcome.

Who this is for

• People who got a generic notice.
• Travellers and VPN users.
• Accounts that may have been hacked.

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.

Questions people also ask (2026)

Where is the appeal in Accounts Center?

If you can still log in, open Settings, then Accounts Center, then Account status, and pick the account. If you cannot log in, the login screen usually shows the notice with a button to disagree or request a review. Menu names change between app versions, so match the wording on your screen.

Hacked and then disabled: which comes first?

Start with the hacked route (instagram.com/hacked or facebook.com/hacked), not the normal appeal, so the record shows the account was taken. Secure the linked email and phone first, then appeal the disable if a button appears. Report the scam where you live (table below).

Stuck on “we’re reviewing your info” after verification?

That screen means the selfie or document was received. Do not resubmit unless asked, and do not create new accounts while waiting, which can be treated as getting around the decision. If nothing changes for weeks, an EU user can look at Appeals Centre Europe once Meta’s own appeal is done.

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

• The username or profile link.
• A screenshot of the exact notice, with the date visible.
• Whether you already appealed, and what Meta replied.
• Whether you still have the email and phone number on the account.
• Never your password or login codes.
