Q&A for How to Recover a Disabled Facebook Account

Yes, if you've given your mobile number before your account was blocked or hacked. If that is not available, try contacting Facebook's customer support for help.

Put the confirmation code into Facebook the next time you login.

You can reset your password by going to the official Facebook page. Click on "forgot password" and follow the instructions.

It sounds like the issue might be behind the scenes, so you may just need to contact Facebook support and ask them what the correct steps are to fix the problem. It's possible that they have to fix it themselves.

Got to your email account, which you used to create the Facebook account. Then look if you have any emails from Facebook.

If it gives you any further instructions, follow them to confirm your identity. (This may involve confirming your email address.)

You don't know until they contact you or until you can login. It usually only takes a short time once you submit the form to be able to access you account again so you should try to login if you haven't yet. If it still doesn't work you will have to contact Facebook and be patient.

You can keep trying to contact Facebook to restore the account, but at this point it might be easier to just create an entirely new one.

Facebook tries to reply as soon as possible; you should hear back within 3 - 4 business days.

Abandon the new account, and log in using the e-mail address of your old account.

You have several options here. You can either go through the process of resetting them, or you can use a new email address to create a completely new account.

After you log in, you will be redirected to a page from which you can appeal your deactivation. If you have forgotten your password you are still able to reset it, even after the account has been disabled.

It shouldn't take very long after the request. Try refreshing your inbox. If it's still not there, check your other folders, such as Spam, Social, etc. If it's still not there, request another email. If this method doesn't work, I am afraid you may have to create a new Facebook account.

Open your email and test it out! If you've been receiving emails on your end, the problem most likely has to do with the Facebook servers. If this is the case, try refreshing the page, or closing the window and trying again. If you're not receiving emails, you may need to reset your password (as this gives the email servers a chance to "refresh"), or possibly create a new email.

The length of time will vary from person to person depending on the exact circumstances, but it could take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks to restore the account.

Contact Facebook to clear up the issue. If your account can't be recovered, you can start up a new account.

No, you cannot use your account at all when it's disabled. Follow the steps in the article above to get your account back and if it's successful, you can probably change your profile details again.

No, since 30 days is the maximum of a disabled account staying open, unless you log back in.

No. If a phone number is attached to an already-existing account, the number cannot be used for any other accounts.

They are just very busy. Give it some time, as they are likely dealing with hundreds of other users with the exact same problem.

You cannot. The only thing you can do is create a brand new account, since disabled accounts, once a specific amount of time as passed, cannot be recovered.

To delete your account on Facebook, you must go to your settings, and then the privacy section, and click "your Facebook information", click the section "deactivation and deletion", and select the delete option.

Call Facebook and explain why you did that. Next time use your real date of birth instead of a fake one. You can hide your birthdate in the privacy settings.

Since you just pressed the deactivate on it, you're in luck. Just sign back in with your password and phone/email, and your profile will be back up. If you ignore a disabled account for 30 days, it will be permanently deleted.

It may still be active or it may have been disabled if the inactivity is suspicious.

If 30 days haven't passed since you deactivated your account, you can reactive it. Just sign in as you normally would and your account will come back up.

You would have to remember the log-in details, such as phone number, password, and what username you picked out.

You'd have to call Facebook via phone and tell them your details and what happened.

When an account is disabled that long, it will be permanently deleted. He should create a brand-new account if he wishes to use Facebook again.

Because your account is disabled, you can't do anything with it, including changing the password.
