Ad account disabled after a hack

In the review

Short and factual: when it started, what you changed.

Step 1: the route, in order

Work through the steps below in order. Skipping ahead usually costs time.

1. Open Account Quality and look at three levels: your own profile's advertising access, the Business Portfolio, and each ad account.
2. Fix the highest level first. An ad account review rarely succeeds while the portfolio or your profile is restricted.
3. Clear payment problems before asking for review: settle any balance and use a card in the business name.
4. Request one review per restricted item, from Account Quality, and keep the confirmation.
5. For takeovers, secure every admin's profile and remove unknown people, partners and apps in Business settings first.

Step 2: proof to gather

• The ad account ID and Business Portfolio ID.
• Screenshots of Account Quality and any ad rejections.
• Invoices or card statements that match the account.
• Registration documents that match the portfolio's legal name and address exactly.
• A website on your own domain with contact details and clear policies.

Step 3: what to write

• If ads ran after a takeover, say when the takeover started and when you regained control.
• Keep it to facts; Meta's team sees many requests and a short clear one is easier to act on.
• Name the asset, the date it was restricted, and what you have changed since.

Common mistakes

• Buying or renting 'aged' ad accounts.
• Sharing your login with a freelancer instead of adding them as a partner or person.
• Adding a card that was used on another restricted account.
• Opening new ad accounts or portfolios to keep spending; Meta can treat this as circumvention.

Step 4: after submitting

• Add two-factor for every admin and keep at least two admins you trust.
• Once restored, start with small budgets and ads that clearly follow the Advertising Standards.
• If verification is requested, submit documents that match the portfolio details exactly.
• Check Account Quality and the email on the portfolio for the result.

Step 5: if you are stuck

• Several ad accounts and portfolios are restricted together.
• Business verification keeps rejecting matching documents.
• The review button is missing or the decision is final.

What to send

• Your username or profile link.
• A screenshot of the notice or error, with the date visible.
• Which email or phone is on the account (just which one, never a code).
• What happened before it started, in a few lines.

Please do not send passwords, login codes, card numbers or access tokens.
