I dont know what happened!!! I was chatting with my friends and in the middle of our conversation I got disabled??? I'm so confused and very frustrated as all my work contacts from all around the world are on facebook.... I've emailed them and they sent me an email back telling me to read through their policies.... none of them apply to me as I did nothing wrong....

I have been a frequent facebook user since June 2007. On the 6 th of October 2008 I used face book for the last time. The next morning I found that my account has been disabled for no reason. To my knowledge have NOT violated any rules & I did not recieve any warnings. Facebook contains many intimate friends, pictures & memories which I value. Thus I would appreciate if someone could help me in recovering my account.

My account wasn't disabled that I know of (I was only informed of an incorrect password). However I can't access my account go get my password. Which means I'm in the same boat as a lot of you (no contact from FB, etc.)
THAT BEING SAID
Has anyone tried writing to The Consumerist?
consumerist.com also, suggestions for how best to attack the problem.
They have a pretty good record at raising lots of attention to problems with big companies (Comcast, Southwest Airlines, Best Buy). If it goes big there (and I imagine it would after one person writes a nicely worded email...but the MORE the better!) And if the Consumerist story get's dugg on Digg.com this story will EXPLODE.
This isn't fair: Facebook is only where it is (and making money) because of people like us. Yes, it's a free service, but we're the reason they're making advertising dollars hand-over-fist. The least they could do with all their money is offer quality support for customers they've wronged. Can you imagine an Old Navy tossing you out the front door, and refusing to tell you why?
Sounds like I'm going to be sticking closer and closer to Virb.com (version 2 launching soon!)

I was kicked off Facebook a day and a half ago - no warning, no explanation, nothing. I tried to log in and was informed my account had been disabled by an administrator. I've tried emailing and even calling head office (I'm in London so not a cheap call) but have only had an automated holding response. I have no clue what I am supposed to have done wrong!
This thread made me feel better in one way, that I'm not alone in being treated so badly by an organisation I had previously thought very highly of. But... I can't believe they can treat us so badly! I mean, it doesn't make sense to kick people off a SOCIAL networking site for messaging, poking or sending friend requests. Surely that's the point of Facebook?!?
And the lack of any type of personal customer service is ridiculous. Sending everyone the same standard replies is SO rude ... I mean, they have made millions and millions out of the site because so many of us use it. Surely they can afford to hire some customer service staff who will READ emails or even be available to take calls?!?
I was a total Facebook addict and have family and friends that I keep in touch with mainly or entirely through Facebook. I am going through a tough time at the moment and to have that contact with people ripped away without even an explanation is SO upsetting. And humiliating as I also use it for charity and work contacts... Now I am getting messages from them asking what happened and am I okay - and there are many more who can't get in touch as we always talked through Facebook. :(
Any help or advice would be hugely appreciated. I've emailed all the addresses given in this thread with no proper replies so far. :(

Hi Thor.
My account was deactivated over a week ago. When I asked why, I got an email saying that I have too many friends with fake accounts, and because of that they are terminating MY account. I asked them to reconsider and this was their answer-
Hi Adena,
Unfortunately, we will not be able to reactivate your account after repeated requests to remove fake profiles from your account. We apologize for the inconvenience, but this decision is final.
Thanks,
Clark

This is what I wrote back a few days ago and never got a response.
Clark hi,
This seems very unfair to me.
I have no way to know who is real and who is not, and i am the one being punished and penalized for other people having fake accounts.
As a peace worker it is important for me to accept ANYONE that requests my friendship without bias. Isn't that what Facebook is about? Connecting between people? Remember, even behind fake accounts there are real people.
As the Director of the Jerusalem International YMCA Peace Preschool i ask you to reconsider. Facebook got me in touch with peace people from all over the world, even places that might be thought as enemy countries, and that’s what my work is all about. If that fake animal account has a human behind it in Iraq or Syria, shouldn’t that be the bottom line? Striving for peace?
Thank you for listening.
Adena.
Do you have any ideas of what else I can do?? I am so very upset.
Thank you so much,
Adena. – adenal, on October 01, 2008 17:44

On monday 9/29, I learned that I too had been added to the growing roster of banished facebook members. My crime? as far as I can tell, it was adding too many friends too quickly. While I doubt I can move at the speed of a computer program, apparently it was fast enough to unnerve the facebook people (robots?) To be fair, I received a pink warning a few times, sporadically, telling me that I was about to hit a "block" with no further explanation. On several occasions I e-mailed requesting to know the specific quidelines so that I would know if I was violating something. But I got no response. Sort of like taking down all the speed limit signs from the interstate and the getting a ticket for speeding (and the cop won't tell you how fast you were going or should have been going)
So I have now written three increasingly obsequious e-mails to the facebook "appeals" address (I can only envision men in hooded black robes with sharp implements). I am really not averse to groveling, its just part of life sometimes, but this is ridiculous. I know it rankles everyone to spend time with a product and then have it taken away, along with all the work that went into it, with no attempt to inject any concept of fairness into the process, either before, during or after.
I can not think of any other human endeavor where a seemingly arbitrary action can be taken with no notice, opportunity to be heard, fair hearing, or anything resembling due process. If it sounds like I am a lawyer, its because I am. I would love to sue facebook, but believe it would be a fruitless effort unless many people also got involved. (I'm not soliciting, only hypothesizing).

Hey, I joined 10 days ago what seems like throngs of people who've had Facebook accounts disabled for no apparent reason, AND have had no response at all from lots of emails to the various Facebook enquiry channels.
I've been reading around the web and wonder if we might've been victims of the Koobface worm which has been doing the rounds on Facebook?
What I most want to know is how I can get Facebook to a) respond to any of my multiple communications and b) to reinstate my account?
I'm sure this'll be the same with many users here but having built it up over a couple of years, with 800+ friends, 100 photo albums, thousands of tags, events, groups, mails etc etc, this just ain't rebuildable - and why should I / anyone rebuild a profile, if we know Facebook could wipe the account in error again, and not respond to queries?
Infuriating!!
Craig
