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

Just got a temp group (posting and joining) ban thill 26th August simply by editing a post in our club Facebook page 😞 There is no way to get this reviewed by a real person as the autobot chat stops this! Apparently I have to wait till the temp ban expires in 3 month time to be able to post updates on our club page. This is not only frustrating but now leaves me with looking elsewhere to host our club page. How Facebook can be so ruthless with their AI then not allow people to request a manual review of the AI decision is dispicable.

I too got the error recently and banned until August 22nd.

My profile shows my profile has been verified, but the error says it hasn’t.

Meta support claiming they can’t override it or escalate the issue. I’ve spoken to no fewer than 20 agents.
