Skipping a Facebook bill after being banned. Bad idea?

gymlet · Apr 28, 2022

So I've gotten banned again on Facebook, note again, I was banned on my first real Facebook account and now a year later I've ben banned on this one. I don't know the reason, I can only assume they realize I've been circumventing their ban. Though it's weird that it took so long if that is the reason. I've no intention to use Facebook again with my information or geolocation, but I've done so with this account (with some slightly altered information to not make it appear as me). I'm already completely banned and my review has been rejected, so don't see much of a point to pay Facebook. Just wondering if I'll really have a problem not paying, it's about 150-200 USD in unpaid ads.

Do you think I could get away with just removing my payment method, changing the information to something completely irrelevant and just hope for the best? I've heard that people get referred to collection agencies, but I've never seen it in practice or anyone talk about it personally happening to them.

I see wasn't sure if they'd actually refer to a collection agency, well it's not a little amount. Probably could skip it if it was like 10 bucks instead of 200. Whatever I guess.

man, i know someone in a third world country who got arrested for a non delivered $30 good they got paid on paypal, so yes the amount doesn't matter.

Yes, you should forget that money and close your card just in case your bank has money and it automatically deduct from your bank.

If you live in usa, europe, yes pay them.

third world country, just close the card and open a new ads account.

I have run some Facebook ads of my own, and there have been occasions that during the payment process my cards have been closed or changed. I get many notifications of my past due balance, but I haven't ever been threatened to go to a collections agency. I don't even recall adding my address or any personal information other than a name and email when joining Facebook. If they were to turn people into collections, they would need all their personal information to even be able to submit them to a collections agency, a name and email aren't enough. I honestly believe you'll be fine.

Depends on the amount and country. If it is a small amount they won't care.
