Hello, my name is Viren Solanki. A few years ago, I deleted my Facebook account named Viren Solucky due to some mental health challenges. As I am now in a better place mentally, I would like to recover that account. I currently have another account under the name Viren Solanki (Victor) that is active.
I am seeking assistance on how to address this issue and who I should contact. I have valuable data, memories, and photos associated with my old Facebook account that I would like to retrieve.
Your help and guidance on this matter are greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Viren Solanki

I received a notification stating that my Facebook account was disabled due to ineligibility. After thoroughly reviewing Facebook's policies, I am unable to determine why my account would be deemed ineligible. I strongly believe this is an error on Facebook's part and I request for my account to be reinstated. The photos on my account hold significant sentimental value, especially ones of my son's early days and friends who have passed away. I have been an active member since [redacted], and the lack of explanation from Facebook regarding the disablement is distressing. Please provide clarification on why my account was disabled or reactivate it promptly.

Subject: Freedom of Expression in Relation to Facebook
Salvador (Bahia) - Brazil, October 3, [redacted]
To Facebook,
Freedom of expression is guaranteed by the [redacted] Constitution, particularly in articles IV and IX of the 5th section. While article IV is broad and relates to the free expression of thought, article IX focuses on the freedom of intellectual, artistic, scientific, and communication activities.
The concept of freedom of expression is comprehensive and diverse, ranging from a citizen expressing their opinion, a politician sharing their ideology, an artist showcasing their art, a journalist conducting an investigation, and so forth. Besides ensuring expression, the right also pertains to broad access to information from various sources within a democratic environment, safeguarding freedom of speech and press.
Our Constitution ensures freedom of thought, expression, and/or manifestation explicitly: Article IV of the 5th section states that "the manifestation of thought is free, anonymity being forbidden" - it already sets the first limit to such freedom, which is anonymity. It continues in article IX, guaranteeing that "the expression of intellectual, artistic, scientific, and communication activities is free, regardless of censorship or license."
My Facebook page is blocked, and I would like the reasons enumerated as nothing I posted intended to offend the policies of this social network. I do not engage in any behavior that would harm Facebook or its users. I request information on any violent or offensive acts that I may have committed.
I intend to report this to the Cybercrime Police Station. Facebook invades my privacy.
Awaiting explanation(s),
Cristina Maria Ribeiro Benevides

I am experiencing difficulty accessing my previous Facebook account that I utilized for my business. Consequently, I had to create a new account, and my business is doing well. However, numerous contacts and customers are still linked to my old account, as I lack the necessary recovery methods. I have attempted multiple times to recover it, but it is associated with an outdated phone number and email address for which I no longer have the passwords. I have been trying to resolve this issue for years without success. If there is no way to help me regain access, could you assist me in deleting the old account so contacts will reach out to my current one instead? This situation is affecting my business, and I would appreciate any help in resolving it. Thank you.

I purchased sandals from Cic Threads a few months ago. After mistakenly ordering the wrong size, I contacted them to rectify it. They assured me they would remove the incorrect pair and issue a refund before shipping. When I received my order in July, they had sent the correct sandals and mentioned that a refund had been processed. Unfortunately, I have yet to receive the refund, and my emails to them have gone unanswered. Furthermore, they warned that persistent follow-ups would result in being deprioritized, which I found to be discourteous. Any suggestions on how to proceed?

Hello,
Subject: Issue with Shared Article
I am reaching out regarding an incident involving a shared viral article from Facebook, which, unbeknownst to me, turned out to be allegedly fake. Surprisingly, I was not informed about this issue and have been unable to make any posts on my page since September 19, [redacted].
I kindly ask for a thorough review and the potential removal of the strike on my page, as I was not the author of the article and was unaware of its lack of authenticity.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Diane F.

Hello,
I am seeking assistance regarding my Facebook page named horrorheaded under the account Adam Alan Aitken. I experienced a setback after posting a meme that was reported by someone, leading to a temporary ban of three days. Now that I have returned, I noticed a significant drop in the reach of my posts. I suspect this is linked to the incident, but I am unsure. Any guidance on how to address this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your help.

Hello, I am experiencing issues with my newly created Facebook account that has been disabled unexpectedly. I have not shared any personal information or photos on the account, and I suspect it may have been mistaken for a fake profile. I intended to use the platform to reconnect with family and friends. I am frustrated by the lack of explanation provided for this action. Thank you. - Dean Cameron

I recently saw a GIF on my newsfeed that was a bit suggestive, although not explicit, so I saved it to my private saved links. Immediately after, I received a 3-day restriction on posting, reacting, or commenting. I feel this punishment is unfair since I didn't share or post the content. I believe it was already allowed on the site, so why am I being penalized? I attempted to reach out to Facebook about this issue but unfortunately had no success.

I recently saved a gif containing sexual content on my private list of saved links. Shortly after, I received a 3-day restriction from posting, reacting, or commenting. I find this punishment confusing since I did not share the gif, only saved it privately. I fail to see the logic behind being penalized for saving a link that was already allowed on the site. It seems unfair to restrict me when the content was kept private and not shared with the community.

I came across a group online called The Truth Finders where my name, my spouse's, and coworkers' are being accused of mishandling funds meant for helping Childhood Sexual Abuse Survivors. Despite my attempts to defend myself by joining the group, I was blocked. The negative comments about me are causing distress, adding to my existing health issues. This situation is especially worrisome given my age, health conditions, and professional reputation. I kindly request the removal of this page.

Hello, I'm writing as Mark Tucker. The email account linked to my account, [redacted], has been hacked along with my Facebook and phones for the past three years. It has been a constant struggle that has greatly affected me. The issue seems to involve my family, with some troubling dynamics at play. My mother is Sue Tucker, and I have brothers named Chris and Kevin residing in Clayton, NC. I've tried reaching out before, but due to ongoing violations leading to fake tower situations, I consistently change my phone and email, often discarding them. The primary concern is losing precious photos and memories. Please get in touch with me at [redacted] or [redacted] at your convenience. Thank you for your understanding during this difficult time. Sincerely, Brandon Mark Tucker.

Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to inform you that my account was hacked yesterday by someone who pretended to assist me in obtaining data for my internet connection. After providing personal information upon their request, they have maliciously added their personal phone number and email to my account.
I kindly ask for your assistance in blocking this intruder from my Phasebook account and permanently removing their details. The legitimate email associated with my Phasebook account is [redacted], which I have used for a significant period. The only valid MTN number linked to my account is +[redacted][redacted]. Any other information attached is false.
I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter.
Sincerely,

I have repeatedly informed Facebook that I no longer have access to the phone number they were sending verifications to. Even after sending them my identification several times, they continued to send the verification to the old number that I could not receive. Despite multiple attempts, the verifications were still being sent to the outdated phone number. It became a frustrating situation, but eventually, after investing many hours, the issue was resolved.

I believe my new account has been disabled due to having more than one account. One was associated with a business page that I couldn't convert to a personal profile, so I deleted it. The other was an old account I had forgotten about, which I also deleted. However, it takes 30 days for accounts to be fully removed.
I have submitted the necessary documents and verified my account through two-factor authentication using my phone number, but my account remains deactivated. I am eager to use it and only wish to have one account.

I posted an open letter on a website seeking help for a non-profit cat rescue organization. Despite receiving support, I have now been blocked from all online platforms. I intended to engage in a humanitarian effort but inadvertently violated the rules. I apologize for any unknowing transgressions and am disappointed by the outcome on Facebook.

My husband received friend requests he didn't send, so we decided to reset his password. Unfortunately, the reset code was sent to an old email he no longer uses ([redacted]), instead of his current email ([redacted]). I tried sending photos of his library card and Time magazine label for verification, but the system only accepted one photo. I couldn't submit the second one. How can we regain access to his Facebook page? Thank you.

Unfortunately, my account has been hacked, and now someone is using my profile page. They have changed my email and password, so every time I try to reset my password, the code gets sent to their email. They even changed my profile name to Vincent Pedro Cody instead of my real name, Vincent Lopez. This is a new experience for me, and I am unsure how to handle it. Any assistance in resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated.
