When I post in Facebook groups, after being approved it becomes pending again after a while. Even when I try to comment in some groups, the comments go to pending. After trying 2–3 times, Facebook asks me to verify/identify my account. I completed that too, but nothing is working. Posts and comments still keep going to pending.


Thinking it might be a profile issue, I tried using a few other IDs. But except for 1–2 accounts, the rest are facing the same problem.


What is the solution to this problem?
 
Facebook has been doing that. Make the account and age them, I’m not sure if you’re doing that. Even though they ask for ID and you get approved, they’re still very cautious

Do you know if there’s any way to fully fix it, or is Facebook just going to keep being this strict even after ID verification?
 
are your posts mainly links, or pure text? And are they identical across groups? Those two things trigger “pending” more than account age does.

Mostly just text captions, no links. I know links can trigger pending, but even plain text posts and comments go pending after a while, right after being approved.
 
when you post in groups, is the text similar across multiple groups, and are you posting several times within the same hour? And does it happen even when you comment on non-group posts?

Age the account and act like a real user. It’s hard and annoying, but it needs to be done. Real accounts don’t get banned, just “fake” accounts.

Age the accounts and then browse Facebook, comment normally, like posts, give that for 1-2 weeks and it shouldn’t get banned.

I don’t post the same text across multiple groups. Even when I post something very short, like a single word “hi,” it sometimes goes from approved to pending.
I mainly post and comment in Facebook groups, and I don’t post more than 1–2 times per hour.
 
Yeah, that happens when Facebook thinks the account’s whole purpose is posting in groups. Give it a few days of normal life. React, chat, comment outside groups. Then try groups again gradually.

Once the account looks like a person instead of a “group poster”, pending stops being default. Hope that helps.

Thanks for the advice! I’ll take a few days to do normal activity like-react, chat, and comment outside groups before posting in groups again. Hopefully, that will help my account look more natural.
 
Trying to manipulate things only makes things worse, and that action is easily perceived as spam.
The problem might lie in trustworthiness, so temporarily stop participating in groups and instead interact like a real user: scroll pages, interact, comment normally, post on your personal page, join fewer groups, don't create links, and don't perform repetitive actions.
Also, ensure each account has a separate environment (IP address).

This issue is because Facebook's AI has flagged your digital footprint (IP, device) as spam. To fix it, you need to stop all posting activity for 72 hours, switch your network (from Wi-Fi to mobile data), and clear your app cache to erase old traces. After that, act like a real user (watch Reels, like posts,...) before posting again with content that doesn't include links to restore your account's trust score.
 
This issue occurs because your account’s trust score is currently low
 
Typically, this is a trust score-related issue. When an account is flagged for repetitive group activity, linking, or similar behavior, Facebook will silently restrict posting and commenting in the group, even after identity verification.

I think the problem lies in the language you're using when commenting or the content of the post you're trying to comment on.

This is one of the common violations of Facebook's policies.
 
Sounds like Facebook is flagging your accounts as suspicious, probably because of group activity patterns or multiple accounts posting similar content. Best bet is to slow down, act normal, and keep each account separate—different browser profiles or devices really help.
 
Restricted group interaction is often due to accounts being rated low in terms of trustworthiness. When the algorithm detects machine-like behavior or shared data across multiple accounts, it will "silently lock" them even after identity verification. The best approach is to slow down your activity, use separate browser profiles for each account, and act as naturally as possible to avoid system scans.
 
marketplace does not accept review from different countries profiles to assure/guarantee the review quality,when having post/comment pending it occur by group admin/moderator to live.

That’s usually a trust filter, not normal group review. FB thinks your activity looks risky (too many groups, repetitive posts, switching accounts/device/IP, links/keywords), so it keeps pushing you into pending and asking for ID. Best move: stop posting for a few days, stick to 1 account on 1 device/IP (no VPN), comment normally in 2–3 groups only (no links, no promo), turn on 2FA, and check Account Quality/Support Inbox. If multiple accounts on the same device get it, swapping IDs won’t fix it.
