In this article, you will learn about a few methods you can use to get back on Facebook. These methods include Resetting your account, Reporting a blocked or disabled account, and Unlocking your account. Keep reading for more information! After you&#8217;ve read this article, you should be well on your way to getting your account back!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Unlocking_a_Facebook_account\"><\/span>Unlocking a Facebook account<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you have forgotten your Facebook password, you can recover it by resetting your password. Fortunately, you can do this without ID proof. Here are steps to follow:<\/p>\n<p>To unlock your Facebook account, log in to your profile from your phone. Once you have signed in, click &#8220;Settings&#8221; and select &#8220;Account Settings.&#8221; Choose a password that you can remember, and input the verification code to unlock your account. Afterwards, you must wait for at least 96 hours. If you cannot wait that long, you can try another method. Make sure to submit your appeal within 24 hours after submitting the verification code.<\/p>\n<p>Alternatively, you can report the problem to the Facebook officials. Usually, it takes up to a few days for the company to respond to your request. If you&#8217;re unable to log in due to security checks, you can submit a support ticket. When contacting the company, you must explain the problem in detail and mention your email address. This form is particularly useful if you&#8217;re unable to log in using your password.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Recovering_a_blocked_or_disabled_account\"><\/span>Recovering a blocked or disabled account<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Several reasons can result in your account being blocked by Facebook. You might have violated Facebook policies or terms by uploading photos that are inappropriate. If you are unsure why your account was blocked, you can appeal to Facebook to recover it. To do this, you must provide the following information: email address, mobile number, and ID proof. The name, DOB, and residence of the ID proof must match your account information.<\/p>\n<p>The first step in recovering your disabled account is to send Facebook an official document containing your name. Facebook can only reinstate a verified account if it is your real name. A fake account will not be recovered. Also, make sure you haven&#8217;t disabled the account by accident. You can still log in to recover it. To make sure you have the right documentation, you can use Facebook&#8217;s account reinstatement form.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Resetting_a_blocked_or_disabled_account\"><\/span>Resetting a blocked or disabled account<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If your account has been disabled or blocked by Facebook, you can reactivate it by following a few simple steps. First, go to your account settings and click on &#8220;Security&#8221;. Facebook disables accounts for various reasons, including malicious software. You can reactivate your account or restore the entire account. Keep in mind, however, that Facebook has the right to reinstate your account without your consent. In this case, you will have to contact them.<\/p>\n<p>Secondly, if your account has been blocked or disabled, you should try to retrieve it with your friends or family. Another option is to log in with your Facebook username and password. If your account is disabled, you should see a message saying &#8220;Account disabled.&#8221; Fortunately, you can appeal this decision. To do so, you must wait 24 hours before trying to log into your account again. Once you have recovered your account, Facebook will give you the option to change your email address or password.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reporting_a_blocked_or_disabled_account\"><\/span>Reporting a blocked or disabled account<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you have noticed that someone has been blocking or disabling your account, you can report it. Facebook will investigate the complaint and may temporarily or permanently disable the account if it violates its community standards or terms of service. If you are not sure how to go about reporting a blocked or disabled account, you can visit Facebook&#8217;s help page or send a public tweet about the problem. If you do not receive a response, you can report the account yourself.<\/p>\n<p>You can contact Facebook by going to the Help Center or your personal Facebook account and then selecting Security Disabled. Then click on the link titled &#8220;Here&#8221; to access a contact form for reporting a blocked or disabled account. Once there, fill out the form and wait for the company to contact you. You will be notified once Facebook makes a decision. While Facebook&#8217;s response time is generally a few days, you can expect the company to contact you within two or three business days.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/pKZpcoGNnMc\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" width=\"504\" height=\"282\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How Do I Contact Facebook When My Account is Locked?
