Let’s assume you’ve read and observed Facebook Terms of Use and Community standards. And even so, your personal account was banned from Facebook while promoting the businesses of your clients and partners.
The reason is that you followed a behavior pattern of spammers and scammers that were previously restricted on the platform – or, you’ve been hacked. Since Facebook doesn’t provide users with exact practices to avoid, it might be unclear exactly why you are suspended.
TL;DR: Don’t want to read the text? Watch this video guide summary on how to avoid bans with GoLogin:
Here, we’ll discuss how personal account bans affect Facebook business users. Read on to learn about the recovery process, potential ban reasons, and how to escape such situations in the long run.

How to unban your user account (or at least try)
Temporarily banned from Facebook
Most likely your first restriction will be temporary or partial (restricting certain features). It means you can just wait from 1 to 30 days until recovery. If you can’t wait, you can appeal.
Try requesting a review
Head to Account quality → find the «What you can do» section → click Request review → go through the verification procedure → specify why you should be unbanned → wait around 48 hours for a decision → get the decision by email and follow explanations→ (if applicable) request a review again, it won’t hurt your current situation with the platform.
Initiate an appeal
Go to the Facebook Help center → enter your name, email, and upload ID → describe the situation and why you are innocent as fully as possible, and link to related screenshots.
Ask a question about Privacy Policy
Since Facebook may ignore your first appeal, here is one more way to contact Facebook customer support.
Note: don’t underestimate Reddit or Youtube looking for ways to deal with bans ー a lot of people share how they managed to reach the human part of Facebook support.
Go to Privacy Policy questions → pick «How do I contact Meta with questions regarding the Privacy Policy?» → then «What should I do if I have other questions about the Privacy Policy?» → then «I still have a question about the Privacy Policy» → fill out the form and send your request.

Permanently banned from Facebook
Facebook can permanently ban your account as well as permanently restrict you from using certain features such as running ads, liking, posting and commenting.
Facebook can’t recover accounts that were disabled for severe violations, e.g. selling non-medical drugs or promoting dangerous individuals and organizations. While in other cases you can try filing an appeal as explained below.
When this happens, you can try using your friend’s, relative’s, or co-worker’s Facebook account or create a new account with a different email, phone number, device, and IP. Though these methods aren’t reliable and you may still be detected and restricted again.
Why did Facebook suspend my account?
There are a number of ways to get your Facebook account suspended due to how the Facebook algorithms work. There are many users with malicious intent abusing the platform. As a large corporation that tries to comply with legal regulations, PR image, and users’ expectations, Facebook can’t just let it slip.
So, the platform monitors user activity to spot suspicious behaviors and such accounts get penalized. If you find your account suspended or banned, here are the possible reasons:
Reasons for Facebook ban
When you use a user account to promote a business, here are the reasons you can be banned from Facebook. More causes exist specifically for ads, business, and user accounts.
1. Using inauthentic accounts to set up business assets. Account authenticity is tracked by other users’ reports and based on the behavior history of the user. Facebook algorithm disables those accounts that have a high probability of being fake.
2. Multiple accounts logging in from the same IP. You may have only one user account per device.
Note that it isn’t the same as having a personal account and a business page. In this case, you log in to several personal accounts.
3. No human activity. This applies when you create a personal account solely to manage your business page and advertising campaigns. Facebook suspects you are here just for spamming others with your services.
4. Unusual activity. It may include:
- a mismatch between the account and billing name.
- issues with payments, e.g. several declines in a row
- oversharing. You are at risk, even if you got consent from the groups you are posting your offer to. Example, from a Reddit user:
- a high number of friend or group requests per day. The limit is, sure, not published by Facebook, but try to keep within 20-50 friend requests
- using VPN
- using fake (temporary) email addresses.
5. Shady friends and groups in your network. You are at risk if you are connected to accounts with fake names, abusive business assets, and suspicious accounts.
A permanent ban might be a result of several violations in the past or one severe abuse. An account cannot be recovered after a permanent ban.
Ways to not get banned from Facebook while marketing your business
Facebook significantly restricts effective business use of the platform. Here are ways to scale your marketing efforts on the social media while avoiding being banned from Facebook.
Buying several devices
This method is as safe as multi accounting browsers, but you will have limited profiles. Try calculating what fits you better (and what you have space for).
For example, buying 100 used smartphones for $50 each probably won’t make much sense:
$5000 one-time payment for devices = 18 years of GoLogin’s 100 profiles plan.
At the same time, buying just 5 used phones might be more cost-effective than buying GoLogin’s pro subscription: it’s $250 until the phones wear out vs. $288 per year.
Proxy servers
A proxy server acts as an intermediary between your device and the internet. When you use a proxy server, your internet requests go through the proxy server before reaching the website or online service you are going to.
By using a different proxy server for each account, you can effectively hide your IP address and location from the website, making it harder for them to see where you are.
Proxy alone won’t make any difference with Facebook, though, because Facebook uses browser fingerprinting, just like the most social and ad platforms you know. A good proxy might help override some low-level tracking or country restrictions, but advanced websites like Facebook track hundreds of other parameters your browser fingerprint consists of.
Keep in mind that not all proxies are of equal safety. We recommend to stay away from free proxies, however tempting they may see. Using poor proxies can prevent you from even starting your task: they fail when you least expect it, and some even collect your data.
GoLogin provides good trusted proxy deals and free traffic in-app, but you can connect any other proxy as well.
Other (not too helpful) options people use for Facebook:
- creating multiple user profiles in your browser
- using «clean» email and phone numbers
- switching VPNs for each account
- regularly cleaning cookies
- using Incognito mode or “hardened” browsers.
Note: Aside from these approaches being quite cumbersome and well known, they don’t make you completely safe. Some of them (like VPNs) make you harder to detect, but not for top-level giants like Facebook.
Multi Accounting Browser
To detect multiple accounts, Facebook watches various tracking identifiers: IP, cookies, device information, and browser fingerprinting.
A multi accounting browser is a web browser that helps protect user’s online identity and activity by creating a new IP address, browser type and other parts of user digital fingerprint that are used to identify you as a unique user.
Multi accounting browsers work similarly to Chrome, Firefox and others you are used to. The main difference is you can safely create multiple browser profiles with different identifiers. Facebook will treat each profile as a different user using the social platform from a different country and device – merging with the crowd.
How To Run Multiple Accounts On Facebook Using GoLogin
Downloading and registering
Head over to GoLogin website and download GoLogin on your device. The app is available for all major OS versions.
After you install the app, register an account with Google or e-mail. The sign up process includes a short quiz for marketing research.
A free 7-day trial of all features is activated after you sign up.
Creating a browser profile with a proxy
Your default main screen will contain a few ready-made browser profiles. These are isolated browser sessions that will allow you to run multiple accounts on any website. Let’s create a new one, add a proxy and connect a Facebook account to it.
First, click Add Profile on top right. You will get into profile creation screen. 
Here’s a visual guide on profile creation and choosing a proxy:
Notice that here you only need to set up the built-in proxy: all other profile settings are automatic. Let’s move!
1. Set your profile name. This can be done later as well.
2. Choose built-in GoLogin proxy. Built-in proxies are paid per gigabyte, but you’ll get some free traffic to test them. Third party proxies can also be used here with no restrictions.
3. Pick country from the dropdown list.
4. Choose Residential proxy type. Residential IP address is a most common connection like you have at home or office.
5. Click Check Proxy to see your new IP details. Afterwards, click Create Profile. This will return you to the table of profiles. You’re good to go!
3 Top Tips On Using Proxies Safely
- It’s critical to give each of your browser profiles a separate IP address. Do not run several profiles on same IP address or without proxy: this will get them detected.
- If you are familiar with how proxies work, feel free to use third party proxies as well. Multiple IPs can be pasted in bulk into GoLogin with just one click. Choose and buy proxies from our list of trusted providers.
- Free proxies you find at random websites can be dangerous. Being used and abused by infinite amount of users, free proxies often collect your data and tend to fail when you least expect it.
Running the profiles
Click on the Run button at your new browser profile.
A new browser window will open, which is where you work with the accounts. You can use it like regular Chrome (i.e. tabs, bookmarks, extensions and history), but this session is completely isolated from your device and other profiles.
Connecting a Facebook account to a GoLogin profile
In this new window, login into your existing Facebook account (or create a new one) – just like you would do in your regular browser.
Facebook will see this browser session as a different real device, hence not blocking you for multiple business accounts.
After your first login GoLogin will simply remember your session (it is stored in a cloud server), so you won’t have to enter passwords or codes again.
Running multiple accounts
Next, create as many browser profiles as you need to operate multiple social media accounts. Remember each profile IP needs to be different. Best advice here to not mix the proxy IPs is to rename them after your browser profile name.
You can freely run multiple GoLogin profiles at the same time with no problem. The amount of windows open simultaneously is not limited, depending only on your hardware.
When you use a social account in a GoLogin profile, you won’t have to enter passwords or 2FA codes. That’s because the session will pause and continue from a safe cloud server. To Facebook, each profile is a separate authentic device.
Stopping the profiles
When you’re done working in your accounts, click Stop on your profile in GoLogin. The browser window will close, and your session will upload to the safe cloud server.
When you restart this profile next time you need to work, the browser session will continue exactly from where you left. This is extremely comfortable and saves tons of time for account managers, even on platforms with no account blocks such as Discord.
That’s it! Try using GoLogin profiles for any social platform, marketplace or any other website. The profiles can be logged in from any location and device or shared with your partners. During the 7-day free trial, GoLogin does not limit the use of paid features, so you can test the paid functionality.

Meta’s Shift in Content Moderation Policies
In January 2025, Meta transitioned from third-party fact-checking to a user-driven “Community Notes” system, aiming to reduce perceived censorship. This change has led to concerns about increased exposure to misinformation and hate speech, particularly affecting marginalized communities.
Recommendation: Users should exercise heightened caution when sharing content on sensitive topics, as the new moderation approach may result in stricter enforcement or unintended account restrictions.
