Question for my FB friends. Have any of you ever encountered a restriction on any of your FB pages. I had a restriction placed on my account from 2021. I had no idea until last week because someone fraudulently posted an ad on my account and it was in violation of their policies. I never got a notice of it. So last week I was trying to run an ad and I was told I could not. So I reached out to FB and even paid for their Meta Support so my case would get escalated. They are saying that I have surpassed the 180 days to do an appeal. Well duh. I never even knew about it and the worse part is FB could not tell me what the restriction was from, but I discovered it on my own. A travel company posted an ad. I have never owned and have never been affiliated with a travel company. So clearly FB screwed up because they did not catch it. And if a notice was sent out it probably went to the company that violated the rules but not me. Well needless to say 5 days later and so many hours trying to get to a specialists when I finally get one today she tells me, I am sorry I cannot do anything. WTF. Then why did they let me contact a specialists. And the most frustrating part is that when you are in the chat it is all AI. So we all know AI does not have a brain. But then you send me to a specialist and she did not have one either. Anyways does anyone know of a path to get to a live person to help me. Although at this point I am thinking that I really do not want to give my money to FB now. I know there are tons of ways to advertise free. Just asking. Thanks.
