How to Enable or Reactivate a Disabled Facebook Account?

Facebook Account Disabled?

Don’t worry…

You can still try the following procedure to recover a disabled Facebook account. If Facebook has disabled your account, you will not be able to log into your account and FB will come up with a message like this –

Account Disabled: Your account has been disabled. If you have any questions or concerns, you can visit our FAQ page here.

If you did not see the above message, it means something else went wrong with your account.

And if you see that “Your Account Has Been Permanently Disabled“, it means that now you’ll never get back your account :-(

Why Facebook Disabled Accounts?

Generally, when a user violates Facebook terms & rules or someone reports against your profile, this type of action has to take by the company.

Read out the complete guidelines and conditions of Facebook, go to the terms & policies of Facebook. Read the Facebook terms? Be loyal.

Here are the steps to recover the disabled account.

  • Registered Login email address or mobile number.
  • Your full name that belongs to your account.
  • Date of the birthday as listed on your account.
  • Any ID (identity) in JPEG format.
  • Additional info about your account.

Yes, these things are mandatory to recover a disabled account but Additional infobox is optional.

In ID(s), you will have to provide an identity to confirm that the account you’re recovering belongs to you. You can provide any government approved ID like PAN Card, Driving license, Voter ID card, Aadhar card either.
