    I tried to have my account phone number changed, but was sent through a useless CHAT. In the end, I was linked to an IT service for which I was expected to pay at least $5.00. Attempts to get their customer service phone number only resulted in a link back to their convoluted CHATs again. Roger **

    3 times I tried to open a Facebook account to access their marketplace. That is all I wanted. I am not there to live my life in their reality world. I have my own with real people. Now let's get to that. First attempt use my name, didn't leave any pics or saying on home page but went right to the marketplace and started post what I wanted to sell. After about 15 items I posted a hunting bow in sports right alongside with the 100s of hunting bows others have posted. Boom I got banned without a review on posting a weapon. Must have been a weapon of mass destruction the way they acted.

    After after a few days I tried again under another family member's name with their consent. Boom there we go again banned. Facebook wanted a photo ID. You know the one that democrats say you don't need to vote with. My family member is in another state. Now let's get to the third attempt. It was short. Did everything right. Real email address based here in the states, use my full name and provided a photo ID. Next they wanted a selfie and I gave them one so they could match my ID. Banned again as they say I am not a real person. Never got one account opened and time to move on. Go back to my VPN and Europe secured email servers and leave Meta out in the dark. I still have Craigslist, eBay and OfferUp and they are working just fine.

      From reading the other reviews, it seems that I wasn't the only one banned for no reason and without warning. My email received a notice at 3:55 am asking if I logged in from Vietnam (which I didn't, never even been there). One minute later, my account had been transferred ownership. Two minutes later (that went to spam) that I had violated their advertising policies, even though I haven't advertised on Facebook since I closed my business 2 years ago. The last thing that I posted was a picture of my new garden. Two minutes later, my account was suspended, and I had 30 days to request a review; one minute later, my appeal was denied, and I was banned. Total time from a suspicious login to being banned: FIVE minutes, and I didn't even know that I had been hacked!

      FIVE HOURS after I was banned, I received a text saying there was suspicious activity! When i reported that I received a message that I was not eligible for an account on Facebook. I couldn't download my account, and I no longer have access to the page for the nonprofit that I manage. Thankfully, that page was created under someone else's account, so we didn't lose it.

      I went off Facebook for over a year. They wanted me to delete most everything. Recently I reopened a personal page. It got restricted for unusual activity it said. I deleted it. First thing across my page was Vincent Doan. Doing time in prison. The Carrie Culberson Story. Then I noticed others doing time in Marion Ohio. The Culberson Story is the missing female from Blanchester Ohio. These guys were sentenced for murder. Yet they are on Facebook. Couple of people I know in Canada paid for products they never got. I didn’t believe them at first. Then my neighbor got hustled the same way through ad. Lot of stuff like this allowed on Facebook.

      I got a security alert that my fb account may have been hacked on 4/1/26 from a phone number in the UK. Very suspicious but sure enough my account was taken down. They asked me to prove my identity through a credit card which was long expired and gone. They said they'd send an SMS but to a phone number which was disconnected. They said to go to the help page but that's down too. I have been constantly trying to get in touch with them and gave them the correct phone number. No response at all. I filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau. That too was ignored. Shortly before this took place I was harassed on fb by an obsessed stalker. I never responded to her. I blocked her and reported her to fb. They told me that she violated community standards. I hoped that was the end of it but maybe it wasn't. She is clearly deeply disturbed. I have to conclude that fb's behavior is totally unacceptable, unprofessional and very poor.

      I’ve had my Facebook account for over 20 years, and it was suddenly disabled without any clear explanation or real opportunity to appeal. This wasn’t just a social account. It contained years of personal photos, memories, and connections that I cannot replace. I was also the sole administrator of a memorial page for a deceased family member, and because my account was disabled, my family has now completely lost access to that page.

      In addition, I run a small farm-related business that relied on Facebook for customer communication and day-to-day operations. Losing access has directly impacted my ability to run my business and stay connected with customers. The most frustrating part is the lack of any real support. Everything is handled through automated systems. There is no clear explanation, no evidence provided, and no way to speak to a real person or get a fair review. After over two decades of using this platform, losing everything overnight with no transparency or accountability is extremely disappointing. Users should not lose access to personal data, business tools, and important pages without a clear reason and a real appeal process.

I cannot get any support or access the marketplace, which is where I supplemented most of my income, nor am I any longer able to keep in touch with family and friends as I work a lot and this is my only way of being in the loop. Has this happened to anybody else? Are you locked out? I can’t get back in. AI is the only person or machine.

      When logging into my account I was told that my password was incorrect. It is the same password I used the day before. So I first clicked on "forgot password". That results in a message saying you will receive an email or an SMS message for code. I chose SMS. I made that choice at least 2 dozen times but no code ever came. I went into the chat feature asking for help. After waiting for 45 minutes with multiple "agents" I was told that I HAD to install the app on my phone for them to help me. I repeatedly told one "agent" after another that I do not want the app on my phone and that there must be another method by which I could either retrieve or change my password. They kept saying NO, there is no other way. I know this is a lie. First I am locked out, no notice is given, then they refuse to help in any way. These people cannot be this incompetent. They must have a reason for wanting to get into people's phones.

      Facebook has continually targeted me over my religious beliefs and speaking the truth. I share things on my OWN profile page and they continue to target me and ban and block me. Now they are trying to permanently remove my account that I've had for a long time. I share nothing violent or hateful yet if I share a scripture for the day. This is deemed hateful and goes against their community standards. But it's ok for people to threaten me and use all sorts of profane words towards me and when I report this stuff they find nothing wrong with it.

      I deleted my account on September 4, 2025 after being on Facebook over 15 years because Facebook made it so that I could only post once per day. I was a member of 15 groups so that was impossible. They said I made a racist post and I was trying to get new friends to scam. This was untrue, but when I tried to appeal, I was sent to a page that asked for my user ID and password. I was already logged in to Facebook, so I think that appeals page was a scam. I gave up on Facebook because there seems to be no human person to appeal to. The entire site appears to be run by AI. It is sad because I had some great friends on Facebook and was able to contact friends and family using Facebook Messenger. I was in great groups and met cool people in the groups.

      I am submitting this report because Facebook has completely failed its users by offering no real customer service of any kind. Unlike other major services—including dating apps, third-party platforms, and even government agencies like the IRS, which now provide 24-hour customer support with real human representatives—Facebook relies entirely on automated systems, AI detectors, and Meta-managed bots. There is no option to speak to an actual person through phone, chat, or video.

      Because of this lack of human oversight, countless users have lost access to accounts they have owned for 10 years or longer. People have lost priceless memories, long-term contacts, archived conversations, important information, and their entire digital history because there is no trained human representative available to review or reverse automated decisions.

      In my case, my account was falsely flagged and placed in a queue for deletion. I had no way to appeal to a real individual, no live support, and no meaningful path to correct the error. Everything is controlled by automated systems that do not consider context, do not allow for proper review, and do not offer any transparency. This approach has caused immense frustration and has genuinely harmed many users whose accounts represent years of personal history.

      Facebook’s refusal to provide real customer service is unacceptable for a platform of this size and influence. The reliance on AI alone has ruined user experiences, destroyed digital memories, and left people without any recourse when mistakes happen. A platform that billions rely on should not operate without human support—yet Facebook continues to do so, and the consequences are severe.
