It's not on Google? Because if you're in your account I'm pretty sure it's not an email, you just go to the section of the app. I've even heard of people creating a second account to contact them wirh. I had to do that when my insta was hacked then removed, but they never got back to me, they're notorious for ignoring these things, good luck.

I'm just going to call a small claims lawyer for consultation to see what they can do. I saved screen shots as well from Instagram's AI bs excuses. Glad I still have this community though.

If worse comes to worse, when I visit california I may stop in at their HQ at see if I can speak with someone

Lmao, you really think it's worth it to talk to a lawyer over a suspended account? Mines gone forever I found out... poof.... there goes all these friends I've made from here that I have no way of contacting. One of them was a good friend, who shared really personal details of his life. He was a video game coder, I only knew his fake profile here because of what he shared. I'm hoping he reading this.

Yeah I do. Once they get the papers of small claims and see what's it about they normally un disable the account cause they don't want to deal with the courts

But don't you think you can just get ahold of them and tell them what happened without a lawyer
Here, quick Google lead to a reddit that said this is usually faster.

There is no way to get a hold of them since you either talk to a bot on the phone or you need a meta account to send a review appeal. The best way from every YouTube video is to send a small court claims to really get a human to reach out to you to talk to you.

They don't have a phone number to call nor do they have an email to message

I'm still a but bitter about the situation and I just want to thank you for not responding to this post in a sarcastic form. I'm thinking about getting an Cat s22 smart dumb phone, at least it can still run snap, Spotify and discord. Can use google maps as well, but after this I just really need to go back to the time before I had Instagram and only had Snapchat.

I am mainly sad cause all the friends I have made within insta and the my posts of when I went on vacation. I'm still going to go to a small court firm to see what they can Incase I ever would feel like posting on their again. Been mainly posting pics of me after exercising and was feeling good and just wanted to share my progress.

I'm excited to go back to a flip phone cause it will be a simpler time and think it would cool having a flip phone that can also load Snapchat Spotify and discord. It's also touch screen too if needed but yeah. It is what it is

For sure, sorry about my slightly d**kish comments. It does suck and I whole heartedly support the flip phone idea. I don't do FB anymore, and I barely use my new insta, I'm so much better without it. I think social media has caused a lot of damage to society that a lot of people don't realize.

I just hate how I was able to delete my account on my own accord and their stupid AI flagged it. I'm still going to see if small claims can help me with that end so at least I'll be able to delete it when I want and not when AI wants to.

Just feels nice at times to post a post workout pic so as you get older you can look back on ya know

I started thinking about it more and did more reading, I'll need to go to a civil court if I really want anything done since small claims is just for getting money. The more I think about it I'm not as bitter cause if it is all starting to be ran by AI, I rather them not have any of my pics and information on there since it's owned by meta, we are the product that they're selling and AI are demons, which some angels are as well. I just happen to encounter a demon that was still an angel on the inside by getting me off that site the hard way.

It does suck, but I can just go back to the bar next month or so and just get everyone's actual number. Those who I did get their insta didn't really open it either and later some just asked for my number instead.

As far as the Cat s22, unfortunately it does not work with cricket wireless plan, which sucks cause I think its neat have a mix of touch screen and T9 texting flip phone. I at times miss my old flip trac phone that I got in my freshman year in highschool. That was my first phone too so I wasn't one to be on the social scene till my junior year in highschool, and that was just with Snapchat. Thankfully still have that. Joined snap back in 17 lol.

Just wish cricket, at least for me, would make a touch screen flip phone that is also a T9 texting mixture the cat s22. Have the top be a small touch screen, cause I just need snap, Spotify, discord and YouTube as well as google maps, and think it would be fun texting with the old T9 style, where I have to press the number key 3-4 times to get the letter I want, I was pretty fast too with it lol.
