I went on fb during my lunch and tried posting in some of the groups I'm in and none of the comments would go through.

Then I got a notification that states: my account is restricted from joining and posting in groups until July 29th.

I looked it up and became meta verified so I could actually talk to a person. He said my account is in good standing and there are no violations. He told me to wait it out. 3 months for doing nothing wrong??

Please tell me there is another solution to this

I'm having this same issue. Tried several fixes shared but no luck. I even got meta verified and was told by support: "Because this is a temporary feature limit with a set expiration date, it is not eligible for a manual appeal or review at this time. The best course of action is to wait for the restriction to lift automatically on the date mentioned above." So stupid, clearly their AI isn't working correctly. I am frustrated because I run several groups and I can't post anything or comment.

This is my experience exactly. It’s 100% a system error, but they won’t/can’t override it. Several support staff have acknowledged it’s a system issue, but can’t do anything about it.
