How to Unblock Facebook Business Manager
Getting your Facebook Business Manager (BM) blocked is a common issue among advertisers and media buyers. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the most frequent reasons for a ban and the step-by-step process to restore access.
1. Check the Reason for the Block
Before submitting an appeal, identify why your BM was restricted:
- Go to the Account Quality section in Facebook Business Manager.
- Review alerts about policy violations or suspicious activities.
- Look for messages such as Policy Violation or Restricted Business Manager.
2. Fix the Issues
If your account was blocked due to ad policy violations:
- Remove or edit any ads that go against Facebook’s advertising policies.
- Ensure that your landing pages comply with platform requirements.
- Verify all payment methods are valid and error-free.
3. Submit an Appeal
Once the violations are resolved, initiate the appeal process:
- Go back to the Account Quality section and select your restricted BM.
- Click “Request Review” and fill out the appeal form with all required details.
- Wait for Facebook’s support response — it may take a few hours to several days.
4. Document Verification
Facebook may request proof of identity or business registration:
- Prepare valid identity documents (passport, driver’s license) and proof of business registration.
- Upload the documents via the appeal form when prompted.
- Ensure the information matches what’s in your BM account.
5. Additional Tips
- Do not create a new BM until your current one is reviewed and resolved.
- Avoid making drastic changes after account restoration.
- Regularly check your Account Quality section for updates or new notices.
