Facebook have quite the draconian usage policy and at any point in time you might find yourself the proud owner of a disabled Facebook account. Do not despair for there are ways to reactivate your account without having to re-create a different one.
The Dreaded Account Disabled Message
All you have to do is send an email to disabled@facebook.com inquiring about the reason that they disabled your account for (usually it’s a hater reporting your profile to be in violation of the EULA of Facebook) and explain your willingness to remove the violating content and if it was just a “clerical error” to reactivate your account.
Other accounts to “CC” in your email:
- info@fb.com
- appeals@fb.com
That usually does the job of getting your account back within a period of 2-5 days, depending on whether you actually had a violation or not, doesn’t that sound more like a country’s court system than a websites usage violation?
Most common reasons for Account disabling?
- Porn
- Showing too much cleavage if you are a women but men can almost get away with anything — love the commitment to the status quo of society!
- Adding too many friends, too quickly, getting a warning for it and ignoring it.
- Spamming
- You didn’t use your real name that is on your birth certificate!
- Browsing too much of Facebook too often, mostly due to apps like Snap2Face and others like it.
- and many many more!
UPDATE: Make sure to act preemptively and backup your Facebook profile. Check our post on how to.
