Locked Out of Your Facebook Account? Here’s How to Recover It
At BTDesigns, we work with business owners, creators, and organizations every week who suddenly lose access to their Facebook accounts — often at the worst possible time. Whether it’s due to hacking, a policy violation, or a verification issue, there are steps you can take to recover your account.
Here are practical ways to recover your Facebook account 👇
⸻
1. Start with Facebook’s Official Recovery Tools
If you’ve lost access, head to Facebook’s account recovery flow:
• Use “Forgot Password” on the login screen
• Visit facebook.com/hacked if your account was compromised
• Follow the identity verification steps carefully
📌 Tip: Use the same device and location you’ve logged in from before — this improves success rates.
⸻
2. Secure Your Email First
Your Facebook recovery depends heavily on email access.
• Regain access to the email tied to your Facebook account
• Check spam and “All Mail” folders for Facebook messages
• Update your email password immediately if you suspect hacking
⸻
3. Complete Identity Verification (Yes, It’s Worth It)
If Facebook asks for ID verification:
• Upload a clear, unedited photo of your ID
• Make sure your name matches your Facebook profile
• Be patient — responses can take several days
⸻
4. Check for Policy or Ad Account Issues
Business accounts are often disabled due to:
• Ad policy violations
• Unusual login activity
• Linked business pages or ad accounts flagged
Visit Meta Business Support and submit an appeal if applicable.
⸻
5. Avoid Common Recovery Mistakes
❌ Submitting multiple appeals at once
❌ Using different emails during recovery
❌ Logging in repeatedly from new devices
❌ Falling for “account recovery services” or scams
⸻
6. Prevent This from Happening Again
Once you’re back in:
• Turn on Two-Factor Authentication
• Add a backup admin to business pages
• Separate personal and business ad accounts
• Review app and user permissions
