Hey guys, wan't sure if this was the right section for this, request mods to move it to the appropriate section if necessary.

So I deleted my personal fb account months, and created a new one the day before yesterday to try out their advertising, and i added my personal paypal, the one i use ever day, to verify it, and added the coupon, and 10 minutes later i got a mail saying that theaccount was banned due to suspicious payment activity.

I created anotheraccount yesterday, same name same paypal different email, got an add approved, added the coupon and ran ads for $50 and went to bed, and when i woke up, i see that i have got the ban hammer again.

WTF?

how do i go ahead with this? Should i get vccs and fb pvas from here? i don't really have a problem in having more than one account considering the are letting us use the freeweb50 fb coupon for ever, but i don't want the account to be banned in the middle of the campaign or even before it starts.

all help appericiated.
 
heard recently that vccs arent working, but planning to verify paypals with vccs and use them for fb, but my problem is with adding paypals, they just block accounts

Have you contacted facebook to see why you are getting the banhammer? If you are using legit personal information, legit paypal account, etc. I don't see any reason for getting banned. I'd suggest just straight-up asking them what the problem is before trying to find a sneaky work-around for it. Just my two cents :)
 
filled up a form they showed, they replied with saying they are investigating, 3 days gone and no mails from them yet :p
 
Have you tried contacting or filing a ticket to the facebook admins? They might explain to you why you get banned, then make a strong willed contradiction for your rights.

It's been how many days since you last submitted your complaint? I just hope it gets fixed early. Facebook is becoming a douchebag these days.

I got the same email too. I made a FB account w/ paypal. And automatically they disabled my account. I filled the form, and now received that email.
I am not sure, what they want me to tell them.

Did you get a reply from them?
What did they say?
 
I have the same case. Did anyone manage to get their FB account back with this reply..
