IG new UNFOLLOWING limits / Temp blocks

Same thing just happened to me. Have a 2 month old account and was able to follow 120 and unfollow 80 per hour for the past 2 weeks until yesterday night. I do everything manually, by the way. This morning I was unfollowing using the "Follower" app on my iPhone and after about 20 or 30 unfollows, I got notified that I was going too fast and I got temp blocked. Going to wait for another hour or so and test my new follow limits to see if they changed as well. Will let you guys know. Also how long my temp block lasts and will then test new unfollow limits.

Oh and by the way, can anyone confirm that this only affects unfollows and not follows?
 
I can confirm that, at least for my accounts, the issue lies with unfollow ONLY. I think this was already pretty clear but just wanted to double-check for myself and let you guys know.
 
Unable to confirm limits yet because I'm still temp banned. Until last night I was able to manually unfollow 80 per hour without problems, possibly even more but never tried. Hopefully this temp ban won't last too long.

I had one account of mine banned as well, I used similar settings. Luckily it was relatively new account so I didn't lose much.

5-10 limit
delay 60-80
daily 500-600

and it was banned yesterday for some reason, I never had this unfollowing error before.

NOTE: My account was permanently closed, not a temporary block from unfollowing. Not sure why's that still.

A new account was temp banned today for follow and unfollow and the older one only temp ban for unfollow. Same settings on both!
 
This means that it will be incredibly harder now to grow our accounts solely on follow / unfollow... we will have to rely on liking and commenting a lot more.
 
It's a pleasure sure, I consider it my duty to always enlighten the world with my wisdom.
I never joined Instagram, I don't even have the app installed on my phone. I have been reading about FL for a few days now. I'm planning to get a windows VPS and buy some proxies to start my social account growth. I will be joining you soon :)
 
The ban lifted for me after 9 hours....I just unfollowed 100 people, going to try 100 an hour see if i get ban again

When people say banned is it banned account or temporary blocked?

Also what do you mean by liking/commenting? Is this a method to get followers by liking their pictures? I can't imagine it being easy without a bot
 
In one of my projects I got the error on 2 out of 12 accounts. They all use the same settings. It's weird that it's only happening to those 2 accounts and not the other ones.
 
In my accounts it happened in different timings too... I thought it was a problem of the proxies because all of the accounts running in 1 proxy got affected at the same time, but then it spread....

In my case these are temporary blocks.
 
Lol well there goes unfollowing 2500 people daily. Almost all my accounts got temp blocked
