I usually do that but doesn't work, now on my fiftieth (ok Exaggeration, feels like) appeal/ block. Absolutely do not understand how some continuosly do a shed load of tags and nothing? I do three and am blocked!!
very tempted to close my ones and start completely again/ new email etc1 -
I think the bans are getting less. Touch wood it feels like it anyway. I also read people regularly reporting other compers are getting the tables turned and their accounts getting banned. Not sure if this is relevant. It's about time sore losers are targeted.1

I've just has 2 Instagram accounts deleted - one I got reinstated by adding my mobile and email address, the other was apparently removed due to a 'comment'. This second one is what I use for competitions, so be aware that the constant competition providers asking you 'tag someone' is likely causing Instagram to think you are spamming. I've no idea if I will get the account back from trigger-happy Instagram.0

I also had a suspension today, I was lulled into a false sense of security and clearly got too tag-happy! Managed to reinstate my account but I’ll go back to how I was comping during advent on insta, being mega selective and only a couple of comps a day. I’ve been resisting tiktok but it might be time for me to give that a go instead.0

I have not been banned since Christmas, but I don't enter many IG comps generally. I think I have only ever won one competition on that platform.0
