Did you get your Instagram deactivated? 🏴☠️ You've come to the right place! I've had my Instagram business profile deactivated in March 2021 and managed to get it back 🔑 within a few days.
In this post, I'll share the steps you can take to recover your deactivated Instagram fast.
5 Steps to recover a deactivated Instagram account
Step 1: Appeal the block
When you first discover that you're blocked from your Instagram profile you will naturally 😫 panic.
You shoudn't.
When a block occurs, you will be locked 🔒 out from your profile for 24 hours.
Nothing you do in this period can help that.
Take a few days off 🧘🏽♀️ and focus your attention on other platforms.
Step 2: After 24 hrs fill up the appeal form
When you try to log in 📲 you will see a pop-up 📄 form that directs you to fill up an appeal form.
Depending on which policy you breached, the form will be different.
Fill up the form accurately.
Step 3: Wait for an official email from the Instagram team
The Instagram team will send you an email 📧 to verify your identity.
You may also be required to provide a photocopy of your government ID or a picture of you 😬 holding a code they provide you in the email.
Important: Make sure you check 💡your spam folder for this email because this step is crucial in getting your account reinstated.
Step 4: Removal of action block
Once the Instagram team verifies your identity, they will send you an email 📧 to inform you that your account was reinstated.
Now you can log in again. 🙌
In some cases, Instagram will send you a link to 🔑 reset your password.
Step 5: Take it slow
Now that you have gained access to your account, take it slow. 👩🏻💻
