Hello all, My instagram id was disabled on 11 Feb. Message says my account or activity on it doesn't follow Community Standards on account integrity. I have not done anything wrong, I use it for posting my photography work and some reels, around 6k followers. Already appealed 2 times, both rejected within few hours. Now it shows I have 180 days to disagree but the button is taking me back to same page only. Is there any other method in India? Somebody told me about grievance officer. Please help, this is my portfolio and my clients check it before booking.

Yes there is. First you complain to Meta's Grievance Officer for India, there is a form in their help centre. If reply is not satisfactory (or no reply in 30 days) you can appeal to the Grievance Appellate Committee online. I think you get 30 days from their reply to file.

GAC portal needs mobile OTP to login. Keep screenshot of your grievance ticket, they ask details. It takes time though, dont expect quick result.

  @Anonymous Not yet bhai. The Grievance Officer sent a standard reply and nothing changed, so I filed on the GAC portal. Waiting now. Keep screenshots of your ticket numbers, they ask for them.
