Appeal When Your Public Page Is Disabled

Who it's for

• You believe your public page was disabled in error and want to contest the decision.
• You've received a violation notice and need to understand your options.
• You want to learn how the appeal process works before taking further steps.

Steps

1. Check your account notifications for violation details to understand which policy triggered the disablement.
2. Read Understand Page Bans and Violation Scores to see how scores and bans are applied.
3. Collect supporting evidence — screenshots, context, or explanations about your page content.
4. Submit your appeal through Submit a Moderation Appeal with your evidence attached.
5. Wait for the review team's response, typically within a few business days.
6. If the appeal is denied, review your options: tighten password complexity requirements on remaining pages, or consider deleting your account and hosted pages if you choose to leave.
7. Once reinstated, restore your public page by following Set up your public page address.

Gotchas

• Appeals without specific evidence or context are unlikely to be overturned.
• Repeated violations may reduce your eligibility for future appeals.
• A disabled page does not delete your hosted files — you still have access to your History.
