Hello Fastlaners.
So I was spending about 1k a day on Facebook advertising my ecommerce store (fully compliant, in the Home & Garden space), and was making about $2500-$3500/day in sales..
Until one day they decided to ban my account - apparently for "suspicious payment activity" which was crazy because I had a $5000 billing threshold and I wasn't even due to be billed yet.
Appeals have failed and I keep getting the same cookie-cutter responses saying that they can't "confidently reinstate my payment account in interest of protecting their users"
Further attempts to create new business and personal accounts were effectively shut down by FB, tried new credit cards, Paypal accounts, virtual credit cards, different computers, family members' accounts, etc... even replaced the store with a new domain. Trust me when you go from 3k a day to zero you try everything LOL!
Anyone with similar experiences? Would like to resume advertising on Facebook ASAP, and it's really frustrating when I see people advertise illegal stuff like steroids and other shady stuff they don't crack down on them just because they're in foreign languages.. when I'm just selling regular household items!
Thanks in advance!
