Telegram throws that limit when a new account looks like it might be a spam-create. Manual review path exists, you don't need to pay for an unblock service.
* Wait 24-72h. Soft restrictions self-clear if the account behaves normally.
* Appeal through
@spambot. Open it, hit /start, pick "Yes, I'll send fewer messages" or the "But I can't message users" option. A human moderator reviews and usually lifts it manually within a day or two.
a. While you wait, warm the account: set a real profile photo + bio, join a few channels, send messages only to existing contacts in your phone, use it like a normal account for 5-7 days. Cold-messaging strangers right after registration is the most common trigger.
b. Kill the VPN/proxy if you registered through one. Same IP cluster + same SIM patterns trigger Telegram's anti-spam scoring. Use mobile data on your real number SIM for the first week.
c. Don't try to mass-add contacts or join 50 groups in one session. The limit watches velocity, not just total count.
If after the appeal SpamBot still says "limited," the account is on the harder list and a fresh number is faster than fighting it.
