 My Facebook Marketplace account was suspended and I was able to get it reinstated just the other day and that is exactly what I'm going to teach you guys in this video. After all of the trial and error, I was finally able to get it up and online again. It's selling, I'm making my profits again. Stay tuned for this video. It's going to be a very important one. Quick intro and let's begin. What's up everybody. Hope you're all having a wonderful day today. My name is Liran from AutoDS. I'm the content manager and I've also been dropshipping for the last several years and this video I'm going to talk to you guys about the Facebook Marketplace account, how to get it back online after being suspended, after getting your account locked. It just happened to me on my account and my VA was able to get the account reinstated after following all of the steps that I'm going to talk about in this video. One second before we get started, quick reminder, if you're new to our YouTube channel, this is the part where you need to subscribe to always stay updated on all of the latest and all of the hottest topics that are coming out in the dropshipping world, including product finding, suppliers, marketplaces, tips and tricks, strategies and ways to get out of suspensions and account locks like this video. So hit that subscribe button, enable those notifications and let's begin. So as I've mentioned, I was able to get my Facebook Marketplace account reinstated. These are all of the steps that I took, everything that I went through, all of the trial and error, until I finally was able to get my account reinstated. So one bright morning, I wake up to the many sales that I'm used to having. And by the way, I will show you guys a live case study of my Facebook Marketplace account, all of the items that I'm selling and how much I'm profiting from them and all of that, but that is all coming up. So stay tuned on our video channel. So one bright morning I wake up, I got this error message that you can see over here. You can't buy or sell on Facebook. That is because you didn't follow our community standards. I don't know what they are. I know about Facebook's commerce policies. I think everything was okay on my side. If you still think we've made a mistake, you can request another review to restore your ability to buy and sell on Facebook. Then you get a link to click, which says request review. So after clicking on this link, I wasn't able to write any text. I wasn't able to add any photos or any documentation to prove to them that I am who I say I am and I am doing the right kind of work here. So do you just click on a link and your account gets submitted for review and then you simply have to wait for an answer. So that is the first thing that I did. I click on that request review button and I waited. The next step after that is I opened a ticket with support. So I clicked on the Facebook help and contact on the top right and I went to their support section. I tried to open a ticket, didn't really get an answer there. After that I sent an email to many Facebook departments hoping that one of them will get back to me and tell me why my account was suspended and what I can do to reinstate it. The list of the departments and the email addresses that I sent an email to only two of them got back to me and they both told me the same thing. You didn't reach the right department, please forward this email to the relevant department. The next thing that I tried is writing on Facebook's official business page. So I created a post on their page, told them about my issue, didn't really get an answer there. Next thing that I tried is deleting all of my listings on my Facebook marketplace and also updating tracking information. I am pretty sure that this did have a positive effect on my appeal. I will get to that later but what I do want to tell you guys is when your Facebook marketplace account is locked or suspended you cannot log into the marketplace and update tracking numbers and also delete your listings because you don't have access to it. But there is a neat little trick where you can access your Facebook marketplace account even though it's locked or suspended. I will leave a link to that video right at the end of this video so stay tuned for that. And when you do that, when you'll use that trick, you'll be able to log into your Facebook marketplace account, update tracking numbers on all orders that didn't get tracking numbers yet and delete listings that weren't sold because you won't be able to delete the listings that were sold. Do delete the listings that weren't sold and then you can go ahead and try to make the appeal again. I'm going to get to that in a minute. The next thing I did was I registered my Facebook account as a business account. Then I tried contacting them by chat on the Facebook business account because you cannot get Facebook on chat on a regular Facebook account. So I tried that method too. So after trying all of these methods, I finally got an answer from Facebook when I clicked on that request review link that I showed you in the beginning of this video. That's how everything started. So they got back to me regarding that appeal and they told me that they declined my request to appeal for the account. So I was pretty sad when I saw that and even after trying all of the attempts that I just talked to you guys about. But the good news about that is a few hours later, tried logging into my Facebook Marketplace account again and I saw that same link again. So after they declined my request, the link showed up again where I can request a review again. This time when I clicked on it, it didn't simply send my account details to Facebook, it actually let me write an appeal. So something happened here out of all of those methods that I tried, something worked and it triggered Facebook to let me make the appeal on my account again. So when I got the link, it was the same link in the same location when you try to access the Facebook Marketplace. And once again, this time when I clicked on the review request link, I was able to make an appeal and this is exactly what my VA did in that appeal session. Let me show you guys the video I asked to record the screen because I did want to document this and it is a good idea that we did. So here we are logging into the Facebook Marketplace. Then we get that you can buy or sell on Facebook request review, click on the link and this time it did let me make a real appeal. So Marketplace appeals, please fill out all of the fields. So first we're going to start with the name, copy the name, paste it exactly as it is. Last name in the last name field, middle name in the middle name field. And then what is your issue? So I'm going to fast forward the typing. I'm going to get to the end of it. Okay. So the message went like this. I started to use the Facebook Marketplace as a new opportunity to sell online. After the first sales, my Marketplace account got disabled. I can't access my Marketplace account anymore and I can just have an option to appeal. I didn't break any rules and I always made honest trades. If anything was done wrong on my side, I simply was not aware about it. I deleted all my listings from the Marketplace and I'm reading all of the rules and policies presented on the Facebook Marketplace so that nothing will go wrong in the future. Since we store my access to the Marketplace, I really believe in it. Best regards, first name, last name. Now what happened here was 18 minutes on the clock. What happened after clicking that send button? I get a notification from Facebook. Again, I counted the time. It was 18 minutes after clicking that submit button. I got this notification. Your access to the Marketplace has been restored. And here's the actual reply. Thank you for contacting Facebook. I'm sorry about the problem you had using the Marketplace. I've reviewed your account and I'm happy to let you know that you can use Marketplace on Facebook again. You may need to refresh your app or browser, close it, reopen it to see the Marketplace. Please let us know right away if you have any other issues accessing the Marketplace. If you have any questions and comments, so boom, there it is. There you have it. The account was reinstated using all of the steps that I told you. So let's take a quick glance at the reinstated Facebook account. So here is that Facebook account on the left side. I'm going to click on Marketplace. And as you can see, the account is open and active. On the left side, I'm going to click on your account. And here's my Facebook Marketplace account. Once again, reinstated works again. Here are my active listings. As of now, I need to start adding more and more again. It's finally that time and I'm so happy that we got to this. And here on the left side, I'm going to click on your sales so you can see that this account is working and selling. So here we go. We got a pending balance of $739. Bank transfers are currently on hold because I passed $599 in sales and I need to add tax information. This is something that I mentioned on the full guide of how to drop ship on the Facebook Marketplace. So you need to provide SSN verification and so forth. It's no problem for any US citizen. And once again, I want to remind you guys, drop shipping on the Facebook Marketplace is really easy and really, really profitable. Now, if you ask me the question, which one of those methods that you tried worked, at this point, I do not know to tell you which one of them worked. But after trying those methods, that is exactly what happened on my account. I will keep testing this and I will keep trying different things to see what works better and what doesn't. But once again, those are the exact steps that I took until I got this message. And right now my Facebook Marketplace account is open again. I've already started selling and everything is back to normal. So for those of you who thought it wasn't possible, you can definitely be sure that it is. And the Facebook Marketplace drop shipping, I mean, if you guys haven't done it yet, I strongly recommend that you do. It is very easy to sell there and make a high profit margin and even add semi-automation settings for price monitoring, stock monitoring, and so forth. So thank you for watching.
