Instagram permanently banned

I had an account disabled a few times for botting (which I did not), and appealed against Instagram. This resulted in me getting it back.

However, yesterday I used an app to see my unfollowers, and instantly got banned because of it. I've asked them again and they refuse to because they said I was botting AGAIN.

Could this be because it was a large account? 54k followers.

I had an event this weekend which is why I needed the large account, my current only has 5.4k followers and I rarely even used it. Plus I had dms/photos on my other I needed.

Does it make sense to buy an account? Or must I build it up again?

I do believe in 2013-2014 I had 10-20k fake ones pumped so maybe it's best it's gone? I dunno...

It would be best if you built it up but also depends on the purpose of your accounts.

What do you expect if you do that? IG hates third-party bots.

It's better to build up again instead of buying an account, So you have full control of everything from the start.

I used such apps two years ago, got banned but got the account back. But I never used such apps again!

These apps are not that good ! They have their own crappy automations over them !

I agree with you. I lost my account after using external apps.

I've used them on my others, had to change password once, and never had issues again. These were on a 4k and 5.2k account, I guess it'll flag up more with larger accounts?

So the only way is to literally check each person and unfollow?

I had a gut feeling not to use it too, meh.

I'm more concerned about the dms I needed, since I found out some guy wanted to be an ass and pumped 10k fake followers to it, kinda ruined the engagement.

This account is more of a personal one, so it'd have my stream posts, gym, artwork, that's the 5.2k account.

The 4k is luxury, which has high engagement but slow followings lately.

Such a shame to lose a day 1 Instagram account, I have the same posts on the 5.2k now, but obviously won't be posted on the same day, same engagement etc.
