Returning a locked account in Instagram

In Instagram, as in most other popular social networks, there are certain restrictions that are spelled out in the user agreement. As a rule, our compatriots (99.9 percent) do not read this document, which often leads to sad consequences in the form of account blocking. In this publication we will tell you what to do if you have blocked an account in Instagram and consider the main reasons for the ban page.

Why they block an account in Instagram

Ban account - this is one of the ways to combat the administration with violators of the rules of using the site. Depending on the violation, the page is blocked temporarily or on an ongoing basis. How do I know if your page is temporarily blocked? For the most part, management restricts user actions (likes, comments) without closing access to the page. What are the limitations:

• husky - no more than 350 per hour;
• subscriptions and unsubscribes - no more than 40 in the amount per hour;
• comments - not more than 50 per hour.

But if you see the text at the entrance to your Instagram that the account is locked, congratulations, you have a problem.

Do not panic (or maybe it's worth it), believe me - you're not the only one. The ban also includes personal pages, what can we say about aggressively advancing commercial accounts. But first let's figure out why you can get into disgrace with the administration.

Instagram Terms

The most "fun" is that the lock, usually, occurs without warning, and any explanation, only on suspicion of violating Insta rules. What can they punish?

• Spam is one of the main points that leads to the blocking of the page.
• Systematic copyright infringement. As a rule, for the publication of someone else's photo, the administration simply deletes the "stolen" content. For "spoiling" in the form of a complaint, you are waiting for an immediate account lockout.
• Publish content "for adults". This includes not only a photo of erotic content, but also goods that by their designation or appearance can "offend" the feelings of particularly anxious users.
• Exceeding limits on actions. If you do not use prohibited methods of promotion, then "shlopotav" ban can only boast of its efficiency.

Important! Prohibited methods of promotion include the use of resources of mass-mailing and mass-massaging. If you really decided to competently promote your account in Insta, then use only the proven integrated promotion services: Pamagram , Zengram , Doinsta .

How to return a blocked account in Instagram

Temporary ban differs from the permanent one in that in the first variant after blocking (usually 2-3 days later) you get access to the page and the full functionality of the application. A permanent lock is equivalent to deleting an account, after which the page can not be restored. In some cases, it can still be returned, acting according to a specific instruction, which will be described below.

1. Check the email to which the account was linked. After blocking, an official letter with the reasons for the ban will be sent to her.
2. In the "Report #:" section, the reasons for what happened, and most importantly, the contact details of the "complainer".

In Insta, the rule is that if you solve the problem with the complainant yourself by the author of the complaint, the administration undertakes to remove the account lock. Your task is to find out how to make amends or make a clueless take his complaint back. And he must do it in writing. Having received the "compensation" you must send it to the tech support Facebook. The decision on restoration will be taken in the period from 3 to 60 days. Address of the author "strike" you have, go for it.

There is another way - contact technical support by filling out the feedback form https://www.facebook.com/help/instagram/contact/36453 . In practice, these actions rarely work in case of blocking. But you can try.

Important! If it turned out that your account was deleted by the administration, then you just have to accept it, start a new page and try not to violate the Instagram rules.

What not to do to avoid being blocked

In Instargam very strict algorithms for filtering bots, which are easy to get to even the regular user who shows activity. You can get a ban with 100% guarantee for:

• the publication of erotic or extremist photos;
• use of someone else's content, photos of stars.

High user activity, comments, mass-massaging and mass-mailing, as well as complaints against you from other participants in this social network will not lead to anything good either; at best a temporary ban, at worst - a lifetime lockout.

Conclusion: not to get blocked: do not publish odious photos, do not offend anyone in the comments, do not steal content, do not show suspicious activity, do not use prohibited methods of promotion and you will be happy.
