Same issue here… and the funny thing is it’s my private account. Last time I posted was somewhen in 2017, I never followed more than 120 people, I only liked and viewed stories from friends.
Never used tools, bots. Only thing I used today was out of curiosity an unfollow app… but they can’t be serious to block me forever just because this?
Verified with my phone number and mail address and I even think they’ve my identity card since I applied for getting verified.
They’re now reviewing and checking information… apparently within 24h I will get a reply but seems based on the replies here, my account is gone. What a f** shit.
I’m currently in the same situation. It’s still within the 24 hour window. I used a third party app to see who isn’t following me back…other then that I’ve done nothing wrong what so ever.
seems like 50:50 chance… if true, one guy from this thread recovered all of his 12 accounts, others waiting like 1-2 months already. Another one said he got he’s account after like 1 or 2 days back.
I already submitted the appeal yesterday within the 24h window. Currently around 20h since I submitted my picture + written code.
But seems lately lot of people have this issue… hope it’s just a bug from Instagram or so.
Did you verify you phone number? If not this might be the solution. I logged into Instagram, they asked me for verifying my phone number and afterwards I got the “Thank you for providing…” message.
I just tried making a new Instagram account and I can’t even do that. Has anyone had that issue? It’s given me the same damn error with the 24 hour review…ON A BRAND NEW ACCOUNT. Is my device banned ??
