Bro, abeg what's so special about that snapchat. Thought it's just to snap and make beautiful media contents and chat with friends. Like telegram, I don't see any thing special about snapchat too or is there something I'm missing?
let me put it this way, if Snapchat was to make a policy that I will have to pay 20k monthly to use the app i will gladly pay it infact i will pay for 12 months in advance. Think of snap aa a a secret government app for government agencies alone, u wont understand anyways... Snap isn't just pictures, even after 11yrs i still don't understand the app 50 percent. If u buy a phone and snap doesn't work on it then that phone is useless. I have like 12 governors as friends on snap, Davido is my friend on snap. Am still grieving for my account loss i will never get over it....i ve made over 100m with that acct

The phone you are using is refurbished, your probably dunno. The IP address has been flagged. Any account you open with it will be flagged. If you doubt, use another phone to open new account and see how it goes
Re: Help! I Can No Longer Use Facebook On My Phone by AliyuAd: 11:08pm On Apr 05
That third hand refurbished piece of shit you bought must have been responsible.

Right or wrong?[/quote]This is the only person telling you the truth here, it's due to second hand phone, mine has been restricted since 4months ago till today, exactly similar experience but there's a solution

Exactly, I bought a new phone to be able to access Facebook, but one guy told me to bring it tomorrow that he can do that, if it works let's see tomorrow then

[quote author=NassBoy post=138998099]Happy Easter guys.

Trust you are all doing great.

I write this with sadness. At first my Facebook acc of 15years was suspended and later deactivated even after I had appealed and submitted the documents I was asked to.
I opened another acc, after a few days, It got restricted and couldn't use it to chat but could receive messages.

I have opened like four different accounts and after two or three days, they get suspended. As I write, I can no longer use Facebook on my phone. Some persons say my phone's IP address has been flagged down/compromised and that I need to change my phone to be able to access Facebook again.
I'm really frustrated about This.

Pls what do I do?


There's actually a solution just chill, the IP has been tempered, same with me, can't use Facebook for more than 4 months now, bought new phone to access it , but today ive found a solution to that

I share similar experience with you. But mine is WhatsApp. My account got banned few weeks ago for no just reason. A lot of things has been going on ever since this person bought Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram. The rate at which those Indian, Pakistan tech guys working with this companies block Nigerians account. Even when you genuinely use your account and make an appeal, it's always difficult to reinstate them. This is terrible!

Your phone MAC address has been flagged by meta for suspicious activities.
Not sure what you do and who you chat with, but you’ve been reported by someone or some of the embedded spywares from meta has flagged your account.
Change your phone and you’ll be okay.

I don’t think formatting the phone will fix it. The physical address ( MAC Address) of your phone has been flagged.
You need another phone to access Facebook.

You don’t need to be frustrated. Nothing will happen to you if you are not on FB.

It's either you bought a second hand phone that has been reported or you didn't log out from your previous phone.

You have to wait for some months before it will work again
Re: Help! I Can No Longer Use Facebook On My Phone by DeGLORIOUS: 5:26am On Apr 06
I think so because I have done it before during black berry time. That time if you buy new blackberry and inserted airtel line in it first, the network will give you some good portion of data. In fact, if i finish the data, i will change it again and I will still be given. But I don't know if it still works now in view of recent technologies.
NassBoy:
Can it be changed?
Re: Help! I Can No Longer Use Facebook On My Phone by shadrach77: 5:38am On Apr 06
Get a new phone. But once you have a new phone don't open a new account immediately. Wait for like two to three months and when you open a new account don't use your old number and your old email account to open it
Re: Help! I Can No Longer Use Facebook On My Phone by Jamesoghie: 6:03am On Apr 06
Use someone closer to you phone number to open another one. It will stay. But if U use any of your contacts,they will still block it

My own Facebook account was created in year 2000, when the yahoo yahoo game was in its infantile stage - the days of 15- or 16-digit credit card number.
Re: Help! I Can No Longer Use Facebook On My Phone by Chuks10579(m): 6:54am On Apr 06
Bro, I experience the same thing. My Facebook account of over 18 years was suspended and I was asked to appeal, which I did and uploaded the required documents. Only for it to be permanently disabled.
I had to register a new account, and within days it was suspended and subsequently disabled.

I went ahead to register yet another one, making it the third one, which I am still observing.

You shed tears over ordinary app?

Duplex90:
I feel like something else is happening, its like Africans are being blocked from these apps. My snapchat of 11yrs was locked just this morning. I legit shed tears like tears fell down my face. I don't do other socials just snap. A guy on tiktok yesterday said his 300k account got banned for no reason at all. What is going on.
Am still crying for my snap rn. 11yrs old snap gone like that for no reason at all!
Re: Help! I Can No Longer Use Facebook On My Phone by madridguy(m): 7:05am On Apr 06
This is incorrect, even Mark never get Facebook as at the year 2000.

Facebook is something else, this guy's also blocked my account, they only told me that I failed their community standard whatever..mind you I was using Facebook lite



I got the main app, there I realized they requested for national ID card or drivers license and others

I dropped my national ID this people still went ahead and blocked my account

Has any of your previous meta accounts been suspended prior to this.
I don’t get why Facebook would want to delete old accounts that has not violated their rules.
On what grounds would meta accounts be suspended shocked shocked

You can go through their privacy policies and community guidelines.
But, most common violations are fraudulent activities, harassment, hate speech, spamming etc.
If you’re a Nigerian user, any slight suspicion of the above or more you don collect. If you like upload your details, e don go. Meta would only keep your details for whatsoever purpose in the future it could be useful, whether na ad or training ai or using it to trace you, if you later commit.

Ok. It’s a chain reaction, if your IG gets suspended, then your facebook is likely next

My phone was brand new sir.
But for my older phone, I think you may be right that I didn't log out before selling it. I sold it to someone and my uncle went behind to buy it from same person after two days. It's a long story though. Wicked Uncle!
