If you already appealed, there’s not much else to do right now except wait. Review times are unpredictable. Sometimes it’s resolved quickly in 1 - 5 hours, sometimes it can take days or longer. I wouldn’t keep submitting appeals over and over, just monitor the account and your email for updates from Facebook.

there is no specific time frame unfortunately. at times it might take some days to review nd at times it may even take longer so please try not to send several appeals or create more accounts unttil the review process is completed.

Facebook appeals usually take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks (sometimes longer) with no fixed timeline, so just keep checking your email and notifications, avoid creating a new account or spamming multiple appeals since that can hurt your case, and if it's not resolved in 2-3 weeks try reappealing through the Help Center or Meta Business Support if you have a business page linked.

normally, I see FB returns results not too long, often a few days. In the meantime, you can prepare 1 new account as a backup.

When running Facebook ads, it is best to prepare backup ad accounts, as the appeal process has become more difficult.

The appeal process usually takes around 2–3 days. If there is no result after 2–3 days, the account will not be able to have the restriction removed

Response times vary for each account, so you simply have to wait. It largely depends on the nature of the error you made; if it was a minor issue, you might recover your account quickly, but otherwise, you could lose it permanently.

There is no fixed time for this. And the chances of getting the account back is also very less. Did they gave you any reason for banning?

There's no specific timeframe; this process can take a very long time, or even be impossible to appeal. Instead of just waiting for that account, use a different one. This will help avoid delays in our work.

On the quick side, it takes 1–3 hours, but if it takes longer, it could be a few days, my friend.

There is no set time limit for appeals; it could be a few hours or a few days.

Some appeals are resolved within a few days while others may take longer. It depends on the reason for the ban & Facebook's review process. Keep checking your email & account status for any update

There is no fixed time for Facebook appeals Some cases may be reviewed quickly while others can take longer I would avoid submitting repeated appeals and just monitor the account status and email for updates Facebook allows appeals within the specified time window
