We all made this experience and we all got frustrated - at first. Dont get frustrated, listen to one of the most advanced members here:

I got this message three days ago when I tried to submit the appeal form https://help.instagram.com/contact/1652567838289083
There was a problem with this request. We’re working on getting it fixed as soon as we can.
Still not able to submit the appeal form today, I have tried other IPs (not proxy) and got the same message.
Has anyone run into the same problem?

Sometimes their appeal endpoints are down, give it a few days and then try again.

I followed the steps and selected personal account. Received the email to submit picture verification however I received another email to submit a local business license,tax filing,utility bill,etc… I don’t have any of that. What should I do?
Btw thanks for providing me the steps to get this far!
After 5 days that didn’t get any answer, they send today the answer of reactivation. After 5-6 days

They’ve been pretty slow to do this lately.
7 days is a while, but better than not at all. It seems - at least for the most part - that with these accounts getting disabled for posting they’re willing to reactivate them. Had one recovered yesterday at day 5/6, but when it happened on a different account last week it was done within that same day. Probably just a lucky roll of the dice kinda thing, because 3 days seemed to be the norm before.
However, not sure if they’ll get disabled immediately after posting again, and that’s a bigger problem if so.
Sounds like you pressed the wrong button and requested an unban for a business account.

Has anyone got their account back with this method when it comes to copyright ban?
As I manage content that is against their tos I’m getting some of the accounts disabled from time to time. Always get the account back. Sometime after one day and something it takes even 7 days. Just apply each day and follow the instructions provided by @HenryCooper . Unfortunately it doesn’t work for copyrights. Copyrights are impossible to recover.
Did you test that? Because we recovered quiet a few copyright issue accounts.

I did but maybe I gave up too fast.

I submitted the form again and made sure I clicked on “No” for personal account still received an email stating I needed to submit one of the documents mentioned above…
Well in that case maybe just fake those documents or send in the real ones. Is your account a business or personal account?

Was able to unban quite a few accounts recently. Had to send the code picture twice, and still took another two days after the second send.
This is new to me though:
After submitting the form 27 times, it gave me that message. Too bad, as I was submitting the final account lol. Looks like I’ll have to revisit that.
EDIT: I opened an incognito window and submitted the form successfully. I’ll update back whether or not I’m able to recover this account.
