As we know from the recent influx of topics in the last few days about people getting hit with PVs and account bans, Instagram has clearly stepped their games up in regards to tackling bots and automation.

My question is for those BHWers who manage client's accounts: have you also experienced an increase in PV/EV/Bans?

For those botting, this new behavior from Instagram is an inconvenience for sure, but for those who manage client accounts, a ban is much more devastating. I've been very cautious the last few days with my client's accounts as a result of this new ban wave, so I'm curious what are other account manager's experiences?

Are you using mobile proxies for your clients accounts?
 
My old accounts on datacenter ips still run strong, but any new one that I add (on residential ips / country level) get problems.
What about you?
 
In have 5 clients and no PV/EV/Bans. I have also my own accounts (10) and working fine!

Did you change proxies recently or are they all on old proxies? Did you add new ones?
Are they datacenter or residential?
Thanks :)

I changed some proxy. But i have old to. Residential for clients, dedicated for me
 
I bought a fresh resi virgin proxy (apparently) from a fairly trusted supplier here for about $4/month - used it on my phone and got a PV straight after posting an image on my 8k + followers aged account. I don't know what is going on recently but it seems you need to take everything in house to truly beat them. I'm talking proxy, PV, bot, everything
 
Hello, it is I, Zucks, if you wish for your IG accounts to not be banned simply put up a picture of me and pray twice a day

Apparently.... according to the company that sold it to me... Maybe it is, maybe not. That's why I said, you need to develop your own proxy strategy. I'm working on a private 4G network :D
 
I am getting accounts banned everyday since a couple of days. Some accounts on my residential IP some on proxies. Some of the accounts banned are doing absolutely nothing but 1 repost per day. I think it might be instagram now detecting jarvee. Are you guys using GMT experiencing this also ?

Yeah, it's same story on GMT. But it could be so many things:

  • Behaviours
  • Accounts flagged from birth
  • Proxies flagged from start (used before for spam)
  • GMT/Jarvee/Bot 'tells' that IG is now picking up on.
Or, maybe IG has got really sophisticated and is flagging accounts that don't perform normal user activity, such as stalking friends, checking who liked your posts, and browsing through home feed.

The dust will settle in a week or so and we'll know what is going on, but it looks like it's a disruptive time across the board at present.
 
It's posting on bots, period. People who are using brand new accounts are receiving PV/bans upon posting.
