    It is so wrong on FB to not at least tell you! I have heard about bans from a few hours to a few days to a few months! It must be so frustrating for you. Take a look at this thread https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/4238623 - Clare managed to contact FB so I have asked her how. If she replies, maybe you should attempt to contact them too and ask them how long you ban is and try and compromise. Good luck :A

    To be honest I think Facebook are terrible for doing this to innocent people. If they were to take the time to look at your wall they would see you were not a spammer, or posting vicious sexist or abusive posts - just an inncocent comer sharing comps with friends!! I hate the way you cannot contact Facebook to give them an explanaion or ask them to look at your wall. They just block you or suspend you and then that is that!

    I also think they randomly pick on people as I know a few friends on Facebook who are literally posting and sharing comps 20 hours a day! (yes true) and they have never been warned or suspended. Yet, I have other friends who don't comp for more than a few hours in the evening because they work and they have had their accounts suspended? Doesn't make sense at times!


    Luckyone's Fb account is blocked because he is using it only for comps but some of your friends who are using their account for sharing comps didn't get warned. :think: Why? Does anyone know the reason why FB will block only some accounts. If yes, please share!!:rotfl:

    Hello,

    I was wondering if anyone else here has had this happen to them. I have a facebook account in my real name to enter competitions.
    I have been tempory blocked due to spamming?. Facebook think I am useing the site too much.
    I know I will be able to use Facebook again to enter competitions once the block has been lifted, but I will be using the site the same afterwards which can lead me to have limited use of the site, I.E not be able to enter competitions any more.
    Has this happened to anyone else & if so is there a way around this?. Can I set up another account with a different name?
    I'm at a loss as to what to do. Thank You LuckyOne xxx


    I have just had that when I went to add a referral link to a site and it says my account was blocked for 30 days. Why allow referral link pages when they block you when you add a referral for that site.
    No big loss to me for Facebook as I seldom use it other than the odd access to a comp or to post a seldom referral link to a site that allows you to post the links???

    When I had a 30 day ban, I couldnt find a way of contacting FB that is why I am intrigued as to how this user contacted them.
