Steps in case of account suspension for a short time #

How long your ban will last? Well, it depends on how many times you’ve been banned, and what you did that triggered the ban. Usually, the duration of a temporary Instagram ban ranges from few hours to 24-48 hours. The duration of ban also depends on your follow up actions. If you would continue doing the wrong actions, the ban may prolong

How to recover from Instagram temporarily ban? #

1. Report to Instagram #

If you have been mistakenly doing something that caused a temporary ban on your Instagram account, you can report your case to the administration clicking the “Tell Us” or “Report” option.

2. Stop for 2 days and resume on the 3rd #

As a cautionary measure you should stop all actions for at least 2 days. By that I mean no liking, commenting, following or unfollowing. Though you can continue browsing Instagram.

On the 3rd day, resume using Instagram with normal activities avoiding anything that would make you look like a bot. Like and comment only a couple of photos a day and even try uploading a photo to see if things are working fine.

Steps in case of account termination (banned) #

First of all, your chances to get your account restored in such a case are very low. Still we recommend you to try to get your account restored.

Open the Instagram appeal form. Go to https://help.instagram.com/contact/606967319425038 in the computer browser. You can use this form to request Instagram to allow you to access your account.

In the last box of the page, write a brief message explaining why you think your account should not be deactivated. When you write your appeal, remember the following guidelines:

• Explain that your account has been deactivated and that you consider that the deactivation has been an error.
• Avoid apologizing; otherwise, you could imply that in a certain way, it is your fault.
• Write with a pleasant tone and avoid using aggressive language.
• Complete your appeal with a “Thank you!”

They might ask you for a selfie picture. If you don’t hear anything back from them, your chances to get your account back are zero.
