Listing i placed 3 years ago has suddenly been flagged as a weapon? Now my marketplace is "At risk" and there is no way of getting a hold of Facebook support. When i go through the AI support all i get is "a review is not available for this specific violation.". What is there i can do?

I’m sharing my experience because I’m genuinely heartbroken and frustrated by Facebook’s account recovery process.

My Facebook account is around 12 years old and contains countless memories, photos, conversations, and moments from different stages of my life. It’s not just a social media account to me; it’s a digital record of my life.

More than a month ago, my account was disabled following what appears to have been an accidental face verification mix-up involving another account. I wasn’t aware of the relevant verification restrictions at the time.

Since then, I’ve contacted Customer Care multiple times and submitted appeals using my genuine identification documents. Unfortunately, every verification attempt failed. Now, Facebook has permanently disabled my account and says I can no longer request another review, even though my support case was still active.

What hurts most is the feeling that there’s no meaningful opportunity to explain the situation or correct an honest mistake. If there was a problem, I would have appreciated a clear explanation and a fair chance to resolve it.

I understand that Facebook needs strict security policies to protect users. However, I believe genuine users should also have access to a transparent and effective appeal process.

Losing access to 12 years of memories is genuinely painful. Creating a new account cannot bring those memories back.

Has anyone experienced a similar situation involving face verification or failed identity document appeals? Were you ever able to recover your account after receiving a permanent disabling notice?

I’m not expecting this subreddit to resolve my case. I just want to share my experience and hear from others who may understand what this feels like.

Why would so many people be interested enough to watch hundreds of my stories yet never give a like? I’m flattered they watch yet confused why never a like. I’m posting myself playing various instruments on professional gigs.

I’ve always LOVED Facebook Reels but I’m starting to get really upset that I can no longer enjoy the app because every 30 seconds there’s a 30 seconds ad. I understand the need to generate revenue but it’s becoming incredibly annoying to the point I can’t even get through a reel anymore. Ready to delete the whole app 😭

I signed in using an old account I created to promote my drone photography, but kind of forgot about. There's literally no history, no friends, no activity on the account; essentially brand new.

I decided to browse marketplace, as that's whole reason Facebook has any users at this point... Or so I thought...

Within 5 minutes I was visually assaulted with no fewer than 15 literal adult advertisements including blatant pornography. full frontal nudity/female genitalia with zero effort to obscure anything accompanied by suggestive titles welcoming hookups, seemingly ads offering prostitution?

Is this Facebook now? When did Facebook become Backpage? What did I miss? Are children seeing this too?

Facebook allows users as young as 13, but even younger kids have accounts and that doesn't seem to be an issue with anyone at Meta. I think they were even developing an app specifically for an even younger demographic?

What is this? I have screenshots if anyone from Facebook would like evidence. I did submit a report, but I don't know who that goes to. it doesn't appear to be a technical issue. This is very much content which meta has willingly agreed to display on their site because somebody paid for the ad space. Adult adverts are not flagged anywhere in their process; they are all systems go. This literally makes Facebook a source for the procurement of adult content and services.

Wtf??

Meta has the resources to employ multiple teams, of full time 18+ Americans, to act as content reviewers/managers/supervisors in order to make damn sure that Facebook is not an adult site/app. So, the fact that this material is allowed speaks volumes about the nature of Meta as a whole and their priorities.

Am I just behind the times in my expectation of a modicum of decency from a corporate monolith which has done everything it can to creep into each and every one of our lives? Android phones come with Facebook as a system app now. An app which provides adult content and services is preloaded onto every android device, with no option to delete. Wow. What has the world come to? Such filth and depravity is promoted as a point of pride, and that's just devastating.

I hope this gets corrected. I mean there's no reason why this should even be a problem... Just. Wtf?????!!!?

I’m desperately looking for help with a hacked Facebook business page.

About a week ago, my personal Facebook account was hacked. The hacker made changes to my account and took control of one of the business pages I manage for a client. Meta subsequently disabled my personal account for violating community guidelines, leaving me unable to access or manage the page.

Since then, the hacker has been posting violent and inappropriate videos multiple times a day on my client’s business page. This is incredibly distressing, and I’m worried about the damage to their reputation as this continues.

I’ve repeatedly reported the page and every video being posted, but the page remains active, and the posts keep coming. So far, I haven’t been able to get meaningful help from Meta.

At this point, my priority is getting the page taken down to stop any further damage.

Has anyone successfully dealt with this? Is there a support channel, escalation process, or reporting option that actually helped you get a compromised business page removed?

I would really appreciate any firsthand experience or concrete steps I can take. I’m trying everything I can to help my client.

I need an advice what can be done here, I temporarily disabled my personal Facebook the goal was to eventually remove it completely, after a while I realised I was the only admin of a group of 1.7k and the only moderator is my friend who I forgot to promote. Facebook have paused the group and since almost 2 months I'm trying to get it back by reporting, contacting almost every day but so far no result, you get to talk to this stupid AI customer service and there seem to be no way of reaching a real person or get anywhere close to fixing the issue. It's frustrated to the point that I don't want Facebook anymore ever, once this is sorted (if its possible) I'm deleting it completely.

Has anyone had similar issue before? was it resolved and if so how long it took? is there another way of reaching someone at FB who can actually help or there's no hope and I should stop wasting my time?

Group 1.7k members related to Kiteboarding, any help any advice, maybe Facebook employee is reading it, please give me some hope!

I posted mostly anti trump stuff, encouraging people to vote blue, to get rid of this nightmare that we now have. I also posted about another social site that offers much better features. That was fine for a while. But today I posted an image of a little girl on a bed (dressed) tied and gagged, with a "Don't stop talking about the Epstein files" caption. I suspect they used that as an excuse to ban the account.

I know that Zucker f... was involve in Epstein and that he is a huge trump supporter. So Here I am with a totally USELESS FB account that I wasted a lot of time posting on marketplace and several groups. That site and it rules & community standards is totally useless, and a huge wasted of time besides being really boring.... The users there don't respond or react to anything. I even messaged a few that post all this fake food posts and they didn't even respond. No respect at all.

It seems to me that they could just tell you which post was a problem and warn you not to post that type of content. But NO, they have to just ban you. Like the Gestapo... They don't even tell you why, or which post was problematic, or give you a chance to respond to the ban....

does anybody agree with me.?

This is driving me mad. I’m still seeing other friends share memories normally. But when I’ve tried all week, it adds it as a new post with an automated caption. Please tell me there’s a way to fix this, I share memories all the time but don’t want to clog up my photos by re-adding photos instead of just a regular share.

Read the post on black owned sspot website. 4chan thread was taken down. The cia made the original winnie the pooh meme to provide China into a war. This time according to this cia agent that's on the run the Chinese are planning to respond militarily possibly in the middle east or even in usa soil.

Please spread the news so by that the two insecure dictators don't ruin life for us and our families. Forced conscription will mean families will be split apart, please de-escalate the situation by spreading the word. Don't let the politicians start a war between nuclear nations. They have bunkers we don't. Please take this seriously I have good sources that have confirmed it's real. He even sent the evidence to British and American news outlets don't trust them they might suppress this vital information and doom us all. Spread the news and go to your mayor's and representatives we are first world citizens we must stand up for mankind and us and Chinese citizens before the last war mankind ever will see begins.

oh, here’s ANOTHER problem to add to my growing list of complaints about facebook. 🤦🏽‍♀️ i went to share a post today, and facebook tells me my account is restricted from resharing posts until december 27 at 12:54 AM.

mind you, i barely ever reshare anything, and this is the first time in a LONG time that i’ve even tried to share a post. so where is this coming from?!

at this point, facebook just keeps adding new problems to the list. every time i turn around, it’s something else with this app. i swear they just be doing stuff for no reason.

I bought a new phone 2 weeks ago with Facebook and messenger logging out whenever the other one was open or even log out both at the same time due to "session expired". I tried everything from changing the built in browser settings to clearing cache/uninstalling both apps and even using upgrading from Facebook lite and none of those options worked.

But I finally found the real fix for it which is just logging out messenger on my browser and other phones that I didn't use anymore (in privacy settings, devices you're logged into). I had an old oppo a9 previously which I still have, and a newer Motorola phone that I gave away because I didn't like it. Turns out factory resetting the phone doesn't actually log it out of Facebook. I also unchecked "your keys change" in manage security alerts inside the privacy settings of messenger so I'm not sure which exactly fixed it or if both did.

So my dad uses his Facebook account as a small business + post family pictures and outings but recently around a week back, Facebook disabled his account for violating community guidelines. As of now I'm not sure which guideline he violated but he contacted them and they said he needed to provide an ID. He sent them pictures of both his ID and passport but they said "It wasn't an accepted form of ID that matches the information on the account." Unfortunately his name on facebook is his job title, his nickname and his first name. Is there possibly another way for him to identify as the owner of his account and get his 15 year old account back? 🥹

Also he's been using a realistic AI generated picture of him (after we all said not to) as his profile picture.

I have had a suspicion for quite some time that there is something going on between major social media sites, but today it was just on another level.

So I was talking on Facebook Messenger to my friend and conversation steered to the topic of camping, and that people in this area where we live have had several bear encounters and my friend is concerned about going camping. And what do you know... some minutes later YouTube is suggesting for me to watch a video about animals breaking into tents.

What the actual f***. This can't be a coincidence, there is just no way, this is way too specific. I didn't do any kind of searches about this topic in Google, YouTube or anywhere else, and then such a specific suggestion pops up on a different site, about something I just talked with a friend in a private conversation on another app.

Hello, I’m hoping to get some help. what should I do? My iPhone was stolen earlier today. When I got home, I reset my password and removed the old phone number associated with the device. Now, my account has locked, and only two options are being presented. I don’t want to choose "get a code on your phone" because that would automatically give the person who has the phone access to the SMS. What should I do?

Banned from Facebook marketplace for listing a gaming PC and cannot appeal because their stupid ai thinks im selling weapons

The issue started when I tried to cross post reels from instagram to Facebook, the reel on Facebook would appear black with only sound no video. I tried to post from meta business suite and the reel just didn’t even post, even though I didn’t get an error. When I post the reel directly to Facebook it works fine, I also feel like reach has been down though. I can’t figure out what’s going on!

Please help everyone! I just graduated my PhD and business psychology and made a post as a life event of it and then I got a notification at a people liking and today one of them came through and said someone like that I started university a month ago and I thought oh no I didn’t start my original post was that I graduated and it looked completely different than the other post so I deleted that one and then went back to my other notification where it was the correct one with my photo and the graduation date saying that I graduated and that one was missing too, but I never made the original one that said I had started school a month ago. Is there any way to get this back?

I added a few people, all added back except one, who rejected it, but for some reason the “see all” option next to “friend requests” disappeared, it temporarily removed my option to see my sent friend requests. I had another person reject a while ago but it didn’t remove that “see all” would that mean the recent one marked the request as “spam” or “don’t know them”

So I got onto facebook like I normally do and mind you I only have family and friends on there. When I got on 4 hours ago it said they suspended me for child pornography and I’m where. Cus everyone knows I don’t post that crap and it didn’t even show a post or picture of what was reported. So I go to appeal for it (mind you this appeal system sucks) and 5 minutes later says I’m permanently suspended. Like I got family on there, friends and photos of my dad and dog that pasted away a few years ago and that’s all gone. I would love to sue them for false claims and I know I would win the case and even got friends and family who got my back.

Done wasting my time with this. My wife loves her facebook and sends me videos but at this point I am done with Facebook.

When I try to verify my visa as ID on Meta, it says this name doesn't match my name on Facebook. ofcorse it will not match. How can I put my lengthy family name in facebook, first name is ok, but how can I put my full name? Tired.

My mutuals on facebook can search up my profile and it will pop up. But when strangers search it up, my profile isn't appearing, even in the "people" lists. The only way to access my profile is through the tagged reels from my friends... It's been my problem for a long time and I can't really find a solution for this problem.

I've tried everything! I already checked every corner of my settings but It still wouldn't pop up in the search engine.

I want to fix this because people had a hard time adding me to groups. Please, I am desperate 🙏
