"Many users I’ve been wrongfully had accusations against them and had their accounts banned because of lack of human resources . AI is not advanced enough to detect threat versus non-threatening behaviors on social media. We need human support."

"I’m Intergalactic_25, an ARTIST and ANIMATOR who has been wrongfully suspended for the SECOND time in 2 months. I got my account back after two weeks, but then it got suspended again… for—- get this.. CHILD SEXUAL EXPLOITATION. It’s disgusting and absurd. I can’t believe I’m being accused of this. AGAIN!!! Someone has it in for me…."

"My Facebook account was hacked on 12/5/2025 then permanently disabled on 12/8/2025 unbeknownst to me since the hacker changed my forwarding emails setting. By the time I found out it was too late. I have had this account for almost 20yrs and now it's gone! No matter what I try it doesn't work since Facebook doesn't offer any help if your account was permanently disabled. I even have DEFINITIVE proof that I was hacked but it doesn't matter since no human will see it. This isn't fair!! They shouldn't be allowed to do this!! The emotional distress this has caused me is unreal! I just want to prove my case and get my account back!!"

"My account is deeply personal to me and has always been used responsibly—I have never intentionally violated any policies. Most critically, it contains some of the only remaining video clips and photos of my fiancée, who tragically passed away on October 25, 2025. These are irreplaceable memories that exist nowhere else, captured during our time together. They are invaluable to me as I navigate this profound grief."

"My name is TC. I am the Owner of FlickzbyTC. My personal and business accounts have been permanently disabled and deleted due to allegations of child sexual exploitation. I have requested an appeal, did the selfie and ID verification and still got deleted within a matter of minutes. I have been dealing with this same issue since June 2025. I have been building a brand for 5 years and people recognize my brand. I haven't posted anything regarding child sexual exploitation nor do I support nor condone such heinous activities as I photograph children and teenagers with parent consent. This severely impacts my business as I cannot get into contact with clients or generate revenue for my business."

"I had my Instagram account since 2019. Over the years, it became a space of collecting memories & staying connected with friends. April 2025, I deactivated the account for privacy and mental health reasons, something I believed was supported by the platform. Despite this, my account was deleted without any warning, email, or chance to appeal. I hadn’t violated any rules. I simply needed a break. Instead of being respected for protecting my mental health, I was deleted. Instagram needs to be more transparent and humane in how it handles user accounts. No one should lose years of their digital life without explanation or recourse. And why does this platform offer no customer service? The help center is functionally useless. I’m hearing the platform recently overhauled their operations to Meta AI. Now what did we learn here after making such a move: Mass deletion of innocent accounts and no way to obtain your data after the fact. This completely unacceptable."

"This is the second time now my account NailsByLunapsl is banned for CSE🤮along with fb since my accounts are linked. The first time it took 3 weeks before getting my accounts back with a general response apologizing for getting it wrong only for it to happen again. If it weren’t for posting my work I’d honestly deactivate completely."

"This has been an ongoing issue for a WHILE and it’s not like there’s a real reason for it besides bad management. Me and more than a couple of my friends have been unjustly suspended/disabled from threads and instagram constantly in short amounts of time that it’s ridiculous. And they ask for photo AND video confirmation, even then, they keep suspending and/or disabling the SAME accounts. This needs to stop/get fixed."

"I have not been a fan of Meta for several reasons and had cut ties with all Meta energy cords. However in July, I decided to sign up to list something on FB Marketplace—without intent to engage any further. I signed up with my personal email and was asked to scan my face for biometric verification. Well, I was not approved, because I went against community guidelines and in the email was told I cannot make another account. It’s silly. But folks can I give you some words of advice…..this is a blessing. Trust me, I know that your personal memories and businesses have been falsely ripped from you. But, time will heal and you will find other means to bring in business and to connect with those that are truly meaning and can withstand the test of time —without relying on tech that is not of integrity. Meta is not trustworthy—it’s proven this time and time again. You can NOT give your power away to an entity that does not have ones’ best interest at heart. They simply just don’t care. But you know what they do care about? Engagement!!! This is the key. Join me for a MASSIVE MOVEMENT TO DE-META!! It’s time for redistribution of power, and to take one’s power back ⚡️❤️"

"Shut down for over 8 months without any contact information due to an out of the country hack on the account and they still have the primary phone number on me from Nigeria, yet cannot make the change due to that phone number having duo authentication. Unfair to not make that change even though I work for the Police and proved every identification possible and still no contact with Meta."

"I have nothing but maybe 30 family travel pictures. All pictures are typically family pictures in full clothing and of scenery. I have not uploaded anything new in a yr or so. Yet, for some unknown reason, Instagram has randomly suspended my account for "child explanation." This is not ok. That accusation is 100% inaccurate and a disgusting accusation. This is an error; everything Ive ever posted is 100% something youd share at church. This is disturbing and Instagram needs to fix whatever issue is causing this to occur."

"I got on Instagram a couple nights ago to find both of my accounts, one personal, one non personal were suspended?? I have never breached any guidelines in the years I've had Instagram. Years of chats with my closest friends and girlfriend gone, years of pictures gone. I have sent emails to the terms of service email but gotten nothing Please fix this 🙏"

"Had my account suspended for an insane reason there is zero evidence of, 3 months later i recieved an email granting me access to my account again only to have it suspended again, for the same reason, LESS THAN 24HRS AFTER GETTING IT BACK. Over 15 years of memories, photos, etc."

"My Facebook account was suspended in December 2023 because they said there was an account linked to it on Instagram that was inappropriate and that I needed to remove the link between Facebook and instagram. I don’t have an Instagram account so how can I remove the link. I emailed customer support several times and never received a response. I lost all photos that I had shared of my kids first days of school since 2009. Facebook and messenger were my only ways to contact several of my family members that live out of state. This is completely unacceptable."

Essais Jean Louis

"My Facebook account, which I had since 2009, was deleted due to account integrity issues. Facebook believes I'm not a real person and has given me no opportunity to appeal. Thousands of emails have been rejected, and forms keep showing errors. I'm a content creator since 2023 with a monetized account and 180k followers, but I never paid for Meta verification, and because I refused to do so, I was banned from the platform. My Instagram account has also been affected. Facebook represented a second income for me, and in addition to this, I have over 16 years of memories stored there. I'm currently 29 years old and I'm a person without a digital identity. Facebook and Instagram don't allow me to create new accounts because my name is on the ban list; even with different spelling, they keep taking down my accounts because the Meta technology. This is incredibly frustrating, and I admit I've been going through a period of depression since the platform's earnings represented at least 50% of my monthly income, not to mention all the memories that they don't allow you to download from your security settings. I never imagined losing my Facebook account and with it, a part of my identity. I lost many close friends during COVID, and all their memories remained on that platform. My childhood, adolescence, and professional growth are now in limbo, not to mention that the payments I had pending will never be processed due to "account security" reasons."

"My Autistic adult son used Instagram and Facebook as way of communicating with others like him with shared interests. He also used the platforms to promote his blues clues recreations and was followed by Josh Delacruz (blues clues host), Tracy page Johnson (show creator), Dave Palmer (show animator), Nick Jr., and some of the voice actors. I took him to different comic cons where he meet many of them in person and they followed his pages. Meta shut his account down with a very serious allegation of sexual exploitation of children. We immediately appealed it and within 20 minutes had a response that his account was reviewed and went against community standards. Clearly AI reviewed it and not a human which then made it clear he was never getting his account back. Wirh no way to get ahold of a real person to review the mistake the AI made. This has caused him to lose all meaningful connections with his idols, friends, and supportive community. Being Autistic he has no one in our local community that has ever taken interest in him and what he loves. He only has family and feels very lonely. I am disgusted that Metas practices have not only labeled him as a predator but also made him lose all meaningful connections outside of our home. They need to be held accountable for destroying my son's name and mental health with such a disgusting accusation. That is something that could cause huge legal trouble if it were true and I do not take it kindly that they have done this to so many people. I understand the public does not know the reason meta flagged the account for but he knows and it is completely inexcusable for him to have to think a company thanks that of him."

"My meta accounts were suspended after I posted a photo of my high school daughter and her homecoming date from the waist up, wearing school appropriate attire (her in a dress with a square neckline and him in a suit). There was also a photo of my daughter, her friends, and their dates - all wearing dresses and suits which are school appropriate - posing in the typical fashion in a parent’s living room. These same photos were shared by other users, but only I was falsely accused of child exploitation/nudity. Either their AI flagged it mistakenly or someone submitted a bogus report. I understand they are trying to keep the internet safe and mistakes will be made BUT they said it usually takes “just over a day” to review. It’s been longer than that. I emailed Instagram to ask how much longer it will take and they have not yet responded. I supervise my teen’s Instagram account and I’m unable to do that because I can’t access my account. They need to hire enough staff to review reports promptly and to respond in a timely manner to requests for support. This is completely unacceptable."
Jennifer Pearson

"After being on Facebook since 2006 and Instagram since 2019, I was suspended because my "account or activity on it doesn't follow Community Standards on child sexual exploitation, abuse, and nudity". I'm a mom with 2 kids and I share photos of videos of my family and pets. That's it! They even shut down my cat's Instagram account! And they provided ZERO examples of what they considered abuse. How can we as consumers avoid being flagged if we don't even know what we're being flagged for??? RIDICULOUS!"

"I use Instagram and Meta platforms on a daily whether that be growing my business or keeping in touch with friends and gaming on the oculus. I was then caught in the wave of wrongful suspensions and all my accounts are gone. ive been in the dark for roughly three months with no way to contact and no way to comment after the appeal. I have lost countless memories that are on that account as well as they hold posts of my grandmother who recently passed this year. I still have yet to receive anything or get any account back. This is unacceptable!"

"I had a Instagram account. I had three of them. All of them has been suspended since October 11 on November 7 or 11th I have not seen my account since last two months and it’s unfair to the people that did not actually do anything and they’re investigating your information for no reason we have no consent to this, we made up on Instagram, I don’t have any updates on my account. It’s been since October 11, 2025. I have not heard since from none of my accounts and they still have my accounts hostage that is unfair to the people that have not did anything and they’re still searching through my information without my consent. I want my account back."

"My Instagram account was disabled even after providing my license proving my age, this then led to all my linked accounts, specifically my Facebook account that I’ve had since 2008. With no support at meta and AI solely making erroneous decisions, there is no remedy in sight. I see people looking desperately on x and TikTok for help only to be met with scammers looking for money and not restoring their accounts. Meta…DO BETTER! Add a human support system/ review. I was banned for posting my 10 year old daughter’s original artwork."

"My client's business Instagram account, which had over 100,000 followers and was a major driver of their business, was shut down without warning or evidence. Efforts to receive support only resulted in messages received at 1:30 am local time, with no recourse or further information."

"I was suspended from FB on Nov.22nd and have no idea why. Why doesnt Meta tell us what we did wrong. I do not post any political, religious or other controversial topics. I post some cartoons, photos of classic cars and vacation photos. When I filled out the appeal they said they take "more than a day" to review the appeal and make a decision -that was Nov,22, it is now Dec.20th -how do they measure days? Also, why are we presumed guilty until proven innocent? That is not how the system works in Canada & the USA!!"

"I've used instagram for a very long time and a month ago i got banned for child sexual exploitation which was a shock to me because why would i be banned for that i dont do that stuff? I entered a appeal which was a video face scan which i dont understand what good that would do they then reviewed it took 3 days and sent me an email saying they reviewed it and they are sorry they made the mistake essentially saying i did not do it and they messed up they then enabled my account again now its a month later and last night i got banned again for the same thing this time after putting in an appeal it was instantly declined i have no option to appeal again and they say they are deleting all my information and data it does not let me download my data even though the option is clearly displayed on the page that pops up as well as there is 0 way to contact a real human being about my issue other than these beat around the bush self serve ai articles displayed on their "help center" this is ridiculous"

"I tried to use all my options to still no avail. They gave me no warning or opportunity to appeal this decision. And even when I got to talk to a real customer support member they still said there was nothing they could do and the decision was final and I was not allowed to get my account back after years I spent building on it and making memories too. All for scam and fraud accusations which I have never done and still see others actually committing that violation or worse but still go to keep there accounts on that app. This is unfair and I want Instagram to be held accountable for this until I get my account back."

"Instagram banned me in October for Child sexual exploitation. I had zero posts, nothing of note in my bio, and only followed friends and family. Last thing I did on Instagram was text my friend "Where are you". Took them a week to get back to my appeal just to tell me that my account was gone. Instagram was one of, if not the only way to contact one of my friends who will no longer be attending my high school in February. This means I will unfortunately not be able to contact him. Shame on Meta."

"Years of memories with friends and family are now gone on Instagram. I built my followers brick by brick and suddenly my account got hacked and banned. I got it back and then I was wrongfully accused of the same offense again and now this is just madness. My account is disabled. Everything is gone and I don’t even know if I can make a new account or start fresh."

"Of course. Here's a more grounded, but still personal and deep, version. --- That "disable for false claims" notice did more than take me off Meta. It cut a direct line to my business. Now, I can't use any Meta products. It's a total blackout. The help forms feel like talking to a wall, and there's no way to appeal to a person who can actually understand the situation. The hardest part is looking at the numbers. That "disable" didn't just shut down a page—it stranded the money, time, and strategy I'd built into it. It turned smart investments into wasted resources overnight. I'm not just locked out; I'm starting over, and that loss is deeply felt."

"I was randomly banned on 11/17/25 for allegedly violating community standards on my Instagram account. Now I my Instagram, Facebook, and Facebook Messenger accounts are all disabled. I did a selfie photo for appeal on 11/23/25, and haven't heard back from anyone or reinstated my accounts. I sent another selfie today 12/23 and I sent a message to Meta support from a friend's Facebook account, since I have no access to my own. Luckily, I don't use my accounts for business, otherwise I would've been in deep trouble. However, I have a lot of memories on those accounts. Also, I communicate with friends and family members in far places through those accounts, and it all came to a stop due to this wrongful flag of my account. I think it's ridiculous how many people have been and are currently being affected by this, and Meta still hasn't got their crap together."

"A couple nights ago, I wasn’t able to access my Facebook or instagram until I checked my email and realized my instagram was wrongfully suspended for “child exploitation” and I was absolutely baffled. I attempted to contact whatever support I could and am at my wits end because I’m not getting any kind of help from anyone and I don’t want to lose my accounts. I’ve had them since I was about 17 and they have become little time capsules of my life and I feel like I’m about to lose everything all because there isn’t an actual human being on the other end of those “live chat supports” that are implemented for us to seek help. I need my accounts back and I feel so wrongfully accused"

"My Instagram page was deactivated, I did not do anything wrong. I did post a few photos that were not mine but I photo credited them. Facebook says my account is a t risk for posting a photo of a tshirt that has illegal drug on the shirt. They deleted and are threating to disable my page, currently the have some services I cant use for 30 days. I think their AI is over reacting. I have 16 years of my life of facebook I do not want to lose it."

"On the morning of Christmas Eve, my Instagram and Facebook accounts were wrongfully disabled by Meta on account of CSE. I have never used any of my platforms to violate their community standards. I've had my Facebook account since 2007 and Instagram since 2012; nearly 20 years of memories and important connections erased within seconds! [All over a false claim from Meta's faulty AI security measures] Even if I get my accounts reinstated, I fear that many of my messages, pictures, and comments from friends and family are already lost permanently because of Meta. It's especially hard on those who've had messages and other memorabilia from lost loved ones erased or business owners who rely on their Meta accounts lose their stream(s) of income. Meta MUST be held accountable!"

"I didnt violate any terms of Instagram and yet still they said that my account is permanently disabled for being connected to a banned account or something like that. After they said that I couldnt appeal, and its just a cycle where if I create a new account it automatically gets banned. I also cant reach out to instagram and contact them since it doesnt show how to on any of their websites, and using the information that I got from their website, it basically said, " If you have tried to appeal a ban before, and it got denied, you cant appeal again." Which means that I just will not be able to ever use instagram again and just keep getting new devices when it gets banned."

Never in my life have I ever posted child prn nor any type of child exploitation content at all ! And plus, my account status was 100% clear with green checks all over it which proves that my account was following the rules and never broke the community guidelines! They need more humans to speak to on Instagram! Too many people's innocent account are being incorrectly banned while people who actually are breaking the rules of the platform get to stay! And I still haven't gotten my account back about 2 weeks later! Sick of this!"

"My Instagram account has been suspended by Meta on 12/23 with a wrongful accusation of posting child sexual abuse material. I received an email notification of the suspension with no information on the content in question. I'm a passive dormant user of the Instagram and Facebook platforms and haven't posted anything in years - upto the date of suspension. This is a false accusation by Meta, leading to defamation of character due to the gravity of the allegation. My facebook account that's linked to Instagram is also suspended. I've tried to submit the appeal on the Instagram platform using the video-selfie process, however I'm not sure if the submission went through as the platform errored out on the submission of the video-selfie. I'm unable to log in to Instagram and Facebook to pursue any further steps recommended in the Help articles - hence I'm at a dead-end with no information or support from Meta to get this resolved. Meta needs to be held accountable for these alleged false accusations. I appreciate if anyone could provide some insights into how you went about handling this issue, so it can help others in the community who are going through this turmoil."

"Meta disabled my IG account of over 10+ years for no reason or explanation. I never violated any rules behind having multiple linked accounts to my email and two email addresses."

"Hello I was an Instagram users since 2018. I have so many memories in my account. Both Facebook and Instagram. Recent around September my ig account was disabled. I thankfully got it back with 5 days. But not even a month later. Dec 11, I was wrongly disabled again for violation something not true. Since then I have not been able to long into my Facebook because they are both linked. Until a couple days ago I decided to make another Ig account to see if I can recover my old account thru meta verified. I decided to pay the 14.99 + tax price. No later than 3 hours later , my new ig account had been banned. Since then I have been trying to get a refund on my money because it is absolutely unexpected."

"I was banned in August. There's no indication as to why. Downloading my own data is unavailable, my Instagram is gone and I can't access that data, there's no way to appeal or speak to a human. I'm just not allowed to contact my friends and family anymore, and all my old photography is gone."

"Meta unjustly disabled my Facebook account if 17 years with no way to appeal. I’ve lost memories and connections I’ll never regain. I also had a credit card in file I had to cancel. It has affected my monetización if my Instagram page as well. Completely wrong. And they don’t care and won’t help"

"I've had Instagram for years with no problem, but now that AI has been given full authority, it has caused me numerous problems. It prevented me from connecting to people in my personal life and clients who are a necessity for my business and growth. Instagram is an important platform for my personal relationships and business. This already has occurred and was resolved; however, it has happened again leaving me to participate."

"My account I had since 2009 until June 2025 was disabled for several different things from separate emails. All of it was things I’ve never done. I did not have a business and I never ran ads. I would not know how to. Another email mentioned cyber security. I’ve no clue what any of it came from. I’m a grand mom to twins, my entire life was documented in that Facebook account and I’d never broken rules. I lost all pictures thru cancer and premature babies born. I downloaded like they offered to do but I got gibberish and no way to access. I lost so much."

"There should be an actual human verifying the content to which meta has deemed an account inappropriate or not following the rules. My accounts were disabled and I assume permanently closed after I tried to appeal (I still don’t have access and I appealed over a week ago) for child exploitation, abuse or nudity. NONE of these things were posted on my pages. If posting a picture of my child at a gymnastics competition is child exploitation then you better have shut down the photography pages that post and promote their business for sport photography all day long. I totally understand having standards to keep terrible content off social media but there should be someone VERIFYING that the content is accurate as accused. This is complete crap that there is a one time appeal and no where to go after that. People’s businesses are affected, people have lost memories with family and friends who may not even be with us anymore. Do better."

"I was all the sudden blocked from using my Facebook and the message stated that I violated community standards on another Meta platform(which had to be Instagram, as I have no other accounts) which I never even used, I started it when it became "hot" so I didn't lose the chance at having what I wanted as a handle(which I can't even remember now lol) and I tried to appeal it and was instantly denied even after sending a facial scan to prove I was a real person. Still no explanation and no one to call and ask. I lost years and years of posts and pictures of friends and family that I can't get back now. I hope somehow we can get our accounts back, and finally have justice served, as it was very one sided."

"Several friends of mine lost their accounts. What's going on is ridiculous. FB needs to be held accountable for all of this. Our senators need to overhaul section 230 and make social media giants accountable. It's unfair what's going on. I almost lost my own account. I have written to FB several times and reported things to the state AG with some success. These people just don't listen. They are allowing AI to run this platform, not real people. There is no help from these people. They just don't care. They are going to run FB into the ground."

"I'm a teacher and mom of 4. My account is mainly for family and friends. My account was suspended and I have no way to contact meta or review what post is in question. I'm just cut off. I've lost all my memories and groups that I use for work and connection. There has to be a better way to do this."

"My account was suspended for an account on Instagram that wasn't even mine.. No matter what I did.. No response from Meta.. Total BS.. I rarely post anything. They never even told me what it was.. All my pictures and memories gone.. My 180 days are long past and never once did Meta help...you can't even contact them."

"I have not had access to my Facebook account for almost a year. No contact with family and friends that live in other states or counties and I was not given a chance to even see why I lost access just an immediate permanent suspension. This needs to be fixed so people don’t lose contact with with their friends and family that they don’t live close to. This also helps people stay updated on others that they care about. When you let an AI go in checked issues like this happen."

"Why do I care about this issue? Because without my Facebook account, I’m not able to connect with my friends and family around the world. I hope the folks at Meta overturn their decision to ban people from their platform, because it would be a shame if we didn’t have anything to speak our minds about."

"Banned since Dec 2025. Truthfully gutted and beyond frustrated at this point. No way to access anyone to help - followed the email which suggested I was banned, won’t let me access my account or see status update or anything to help. Feeling helpless and suicidal from all this."
