    Mind you - when Facebook dropped my ban, it would have been nice for them to say sorry or at least explain what happened over the past few days - too much to expect from Facebook though!

    Spot on Blue girl. I am angry that they send notifications telling about the ban, but send nothing to say it is lifted. I only found it because I checked. There must be lots of users who don't know they can like again.

    Yes, Facebook will notify you via Facebook AND email to inform you 'You are BANNED!' but they don't bother to tell you when they realease your ban!

    It was obviously their fault but they won't admit it!

  • I can like pages again now too :)

    I get a security check (Captcha) when trying to share though :(
    Should I be worried about that?

    I haven't shared any comps in days and only used to do about 5 a day maximum (some days none at all).

    Possibly something to do with this (Source: The Di Coke Super Lucky FB group)
    http://www.adweek.com/socialtimes/fake-likes-update/618954

    If they detect that you're liking a lot of random pages, then their software thinks you're a part of a "like" farm, or someone being paid to like pages. I guess once you appeal a real person will take a look at your activity and retract the ban if it was made in error?
  • My ban has been lifted too :-) A bit wary now though incase they ban me again
