Hello BoYzzzz,

I want to claim broken username for business use and also have legal documents from local govt authorities.

I have no idea about prior ownership of account but whenever I try access url, it showing broken username.

Anyone, please guide how to appeal or get desired user name?

Thanks,
 
Sometimes it shows like this as you are blocked by that user account. Check with another account and still you're getting the same result. If no then your answer is in my starting line.
 
I don't think instagram releases usernames after they're suspended. You can only claim an username if you have trademark claim on it.
 
There is two reasons this can happen.

1. The username has been banned
2. You have been blocked by the user

There is a big chance that the username has been banned, I wouldn't say recently but there has been more of a growing community of people banning other on Instagram for money (essentially a banning service). It can be done many ways through bots or manual reports.

The question you asked was "...please guide how to appeal or get desired user name?". I have no idea if it works if the account is banned but I am for sure it does when the account is up, For Trademark or copyright infringement to get a username for your business' you can go here https://help.instagram.com/contact/230197320740525

The other way would be unbanning the account through 3rd party "unbanners" and jacking the account from the original owner and taking the username for yourself.

Hope I've been some help..
