Instagram
reviews and complaints

In today's world, technology is advancing at an incredible pace. One of the most creative ways to share ideas and thoughts is through images. With the advent of Instagram, photos can now be enhanced, unenhanced, edited, cropped, distorted, and much more. You don't even need to know how to make a photo "sepia" anymore, just click a button and the color hues will change on any particular photo. Making your photos look the way you want them to has never been easier.

Instagram is an extremely effective app that can be downloaded for free! The instructions are almost unnecessary because the app is so easy to use and browse through. The app has recently been made available for smartphones other than Mac products, which is very attractive. The only issue is that there is not much variety. There are only eighteen effects that can be applied to a photo. Although these effects look magnificent on almost every photo, people can easily get bored with eighteen options and want new and innovative pictures.

Personally, I love the Instagram app and use it all the time. I would never be able to manually alter the colors and shadows of a picture to make it look as different and inspiring as Instagram does with just a tap of a button. I also like that you can easily compare two different effects by tapping between one and the other. I would recommend this app to almost anyone!

So, I just wanted to share my thoughts on Instagram. It's a pretty cool app, you know? I mean, you can post pictures and videos and share them with your friends and followers. It's a great way to keep in touch with people and see what they're up to.

I like how easy it is to use. You just take a picture or video, add a filter if you want, and post it. And you can see how many likes and comments you get, which is pretty cool. It's like a little community, you know?

But there are some downsides, too. Like, sometimes people can be mean in the comments. And there are a lot of fake accounts and bots that follow you, which is kind of annoying. And sometimes it can be hard to keep up with all the posts from the people you follow.

But overall, I think Instagram is a pretty fun app. It's a great way to share your life with others and see what they're up to. And it's a good way to stay connected with friends and family, especially if you don't live near them.

Oh, and one more thing. If you're thinking of using Instagram to promote your business or brand, I would definitely recommend it. It's a great way to reach a lot of people and get your message out there. Just make sure you use good hashtags and post regularly.

So yeah, that's my review of Instagram. It's not perfect, but it's pretty cool. And if you haven't tried it yet, you should definitely give it a shot. Who knows, you might even become an Instagram influencer!

Instagram is a social media platform that has been around for quite some time now. It is a great way to connect with friends and family, share pictures and videos, and even make new friends. Many people use Instagram to showcase their talents, promote their businesses, or just to share their daily lives with others. However, there are some downsides to using Instagram, and it is important to be aware of them.

One of the biggest issues with Instagram is that it can be addictive. People can spend hours scrolling through their feed, liking and commenting on pictures, and watching videos. This can be a huge time-waster, and can even lead to feelings of anxiety and depression. It is important to set limits on how much time you spend on Instagram, and to make sure that you are using it in a healthy way.

Another issue with Instagram is that it can be a breeding ground for cyberbullying. People can leave hurtful comments on other people's posts, or even send them direct messages with hateful messages. This can be especially damaging for young people, who may not have the emotional maturity to handle such negativity. It is important to report any instances of cyberbullying on Instagram, and to seek help if you are being targeted.

Despite these issues, Instagram can be a great way to connect with others and share your life with the world. Just be sure to use it in a healthy and responsible way, and to be aware of the potential downsides. With a little bit of caution and common sense, you can enjoy all that Instagram has to offer without falling victim to its pitfalls.

I gotta say, I'm pretty disappointed with Instagram. I mean, I get it, they're a big company and all, but come on! How hard is it to have a way for users to contact them when something goes wrong? I recently had my account impersonated, and let me tell you, it was a nightmare.

I reported the imposter account right away, but instead of taking it down, Instagram disabled MY account. Like, what the heck? The imposter account was still up and running, but I was left in the dust. I had to jump through all sorts of hoops just to get my account back, including sending in a photo of myself with a handwritten code and my driver's license. Finally, after what felt like forever, the imposter account was taken down. But guess what? My account is still disabled!

I've tried reaching out to Instagram multiple times, filling out all the help forms and whatnot, but all I get is an automated response from a bot. It's like they don't even care that I've been a loyal user for 7 years! I've never used any shady methods to gain followers or likes, and I've always been a real person with real memories to share. I had photos on there from high school, college, my wedding, honeymoon, and my adult life. It's heartbreaking to think that I'll never get those memories back.

So, let this be a lesson to all of you out there. Don't trust Instagram to have your back when things go wrong. Always back up your account, and don't expect any help from the company if your account gets hacked, impersonated, or disabled. It's a real shame, but that's just the way it is.

Instagram is a platform that has been around for quite some time now. It was great when it first came out, but now it's not as good as it used to be. I'm not going to judge the website for content, because everyone has their own preferences. However, the Discover section is incredibly lame. It's always just stupid images, videos, celebrities, and girls who can't keep their butts tucked in or clothes on.

One of the biggest problems with Instagram is the spam. It's ridiculous and hacking is rampant. I don't know how it happens, but someone on my followers list had their account broken into and then spammed everyone with porn. Next, I was supposedly "following" fake accounts I NEVER authorized nor followed, and they're all advertising free sex and naked women.

The Instagram Stories option is a waste of space. It looks ridiculous and is a complete rip-off from Snapchat. It adds no important value to the platform. Sure, I could simply not click on it and it's out of sight, but I believe it's a stupid option that isn't what Instagram was made for.

If you're a teenager or someone in their 20s, Instagram is for you. However, Instagram doesn't really control their content and has trouble keeping up with removing fake accounts. If you're paying Instagram a ton of money or if you're a celebrity, Instagram won't hesitate to help you. If you hate a comment, it gets deleted. If someone makes a fake account of you, it's deleted. If someone posts hateful comments or images of you, it's deleted. If someone posts embarrassing content of you, it's deleted. But, if you're an average user, and God forbid these things happen to you, Instagram couldn't care less.

In conclusion, Instagram has its pros and cons. It's a great platform for teenagers and people in their 20s. However, it has a lot of spam and hacking issues. The Discover section is incredibly lame, and the Instagram Stories option is a waste of space. Instagram doesn't really control their content and has trouble keeping up with removing fake accounts. If you're paying Instagram a ton of money or if you're a celebrity, Instagram will help you. But, if you're an average user, Instagram won't care if something bad happens to you.

I gotta say, I tried out Instagram and it's pretty cool. You can post pictures and videos and see what your friends are up to. It's like a virtual scrapbook or something.

I did notice a few spelling errors here and there, but hey, nobody's perfect. And the punctuation is pretty basic, just like how I write normally.

One thing I really like about Instagram is that you can follow people and see what they're posting. It's like having a window into their lives. And you can like and comment on their posts too, which is a nice way to show support.

I did have a little trouble figuring out how to use some of the features at first, but I think that's just because I'm not super tech-savvy. Once I got the hang of it, it was pretty easy to navigate.

Overall, I'd say Instagram is a pretty cool app. It's a fun way to share your life with others and see what they're up to too. Plus, it's free, so why not give it a try?

I've been using Instagram for a few years now, and overall it's been pretty easy to use. However, recently I've had some issues with my account being randomly suspended and asked to confirm my identity with a PIN number. I don't know why this is happening since I don't post anything on my account and I don't make any inappropriate comments on other people's pages. The first time this happened, I lost my account because I couldn't update my broken phone. Now, I'm waiting 24 hours for them to check up on me before I can access my account again. It's frustrating because I don't have anyone to talk to about this issue since they don't have any staff to speak to customers in person.

I've also been using other sites like Picunic to find Instagram posts because sometimes it's easier than going through Instagram directly. However, I shouldn't have to do this if Instagram was working properly. I'm considering ditching Instagram altogether because their little pics and photos aren't that great anyways. If they're not reliable, then I don't want to deal with them anymore.

Update: My account has been disabled for "violating protocol" but I have no idea why. I had no posts and only left respectful comments. I've received crazy emails offering to reactivate old accounts, but the 6 number code numbers don't work. It seems like there's a problem with Instagram. I'm just going to make a list of my top 100 Instagram posters from browser archives and use an independent Instagram shadow site from time to time. Thank goodness I didn't bother posting anything because all the work would have been lost.

Also, why can't you click and save Instagram photos? You have to screen save them in Paint, which is annoying. At least this method records the Instagram address for future reference. Overall, Instagram has been a hassle lately and I'm not sure if it's worth the trouble.

Yo, what's good peeps? Today, I'm gonna give you the lowdown on Instagram. This is gonna be a real talk, no BS review, so listen up.

As some of you may know, I run a YouTube channel. If you've seen my VEEFLY review, you'll know that I'm always on the lookout for ways to promote my channel. So, one day, I was scrolling through Facebook and I came across some YT communities. I thought, why not check them out and see what people are doing to grow their channels?

That's when I saw someone advertising a link to an IG account called 5ocialHelper. The owner of this account had over 5k followers and 2k following. He claimed to help people monetize their channels and had videos from satisfied customers to prove it. He even got certified by Google as an AD partner. Impressive, right?

So, I decided to check it out. I reached out to him and asked about his services. He had some pretty good deals:
- $50 for 1k subs
- $80 for 4k watch hours
- $30 for SEO (Search Engine Optimization)

He said he would promote my channel through communities that had over 130k members. I was impressed. Everything looked legit, so I said, "F*** it" and gave him $50 for 1k subs.

He said it would take 2-9 business days to complete the project. But before he started, he mentioned he was working with another client. I didn't trust him for some reason, so I decided to check in with him from time to time. And guess what? He never responded to any of my messages!

I even have proof of the days I messaged him (check the photos). This dude straight-up ghosted me and my $50 went down the drain. I had all the evidence, but my gut feeling told me something was off.

So, I'm asking for your help. Let's spam his IG account, 5ocial Helper. It's not fair that it's been almost 3 weeks (or maybe even a month) and I haven't seen any results.

Thanks for reading my review.

Instagram is a social media platform that has gained immense popularity over the years. It has some great features that make it a favorite among many users. One of the things I like about Instagram is the photo editing tools. They are easy to use and produce great results. Additionally, Instagram has a large user database with lots of interesting accounts that showcase great photography across different genres. It's a great place to discover new content and connect with like-minded individuals.

However, there are some things that I don't like about Instagram. One of the biggest issues is that your photos can be stolen by other accounts who repost them on their page without giving you credit. This can be frustrating, especially if you put a lot of effort into creating your content. Another issue is that the app can be glitchy at times. Functions can disappear or malfunction, especially with new updates, or when you switch to another phone.

Another major issue with Instagram is that it's very inconvenient to use. You are only allowed to use it on your mobile phone. If you use any other device like your laptop or iPad to log in, the system will think you are using a third-party app and flag it up as suspicious activity. This can lead to your account being disabled, even if you have been using it for years. Instagram uses a poorly programmed bot to recognize suspicious activity, and no human verifies such activity with actual logs before deciding you are guilty and disabling your account.

Instagram also keeps changing its rules on what is permitted. For example, how many likes you can give in one day or how many people you can unfollow in one hour. They do not tell you what these rules are or how they have changed, and then punish you for breaking them. It's like spending time with a psycho who keeps getting angry with you for doing something wrong because they keep changing their definition of what is unacceptable without telling you.

Another issue is that Instagram does not issue actual warnings that you are doing something wrong. They just keep prompting you to verify your identity by keying in a verification code sent to your mobile phone or email account. You are just supposed to "know" that you have done something wrong when this happens, that this verification code exercise is a warning, and what it is you are doing wrong so you can stop doing it. It's like spending time with a child who starts acting passive-aggressive without admitting they are upset or telling you what it is you have done, and then flying into a rage and punishing you without any warning.

Instagram disables your account for no good reason. My account was disabled for breaching Instagram's Terms & Conditions because I was using more than one device (mobile phone and laptop) to log in. But it is never stated in its Terms & Conditions that I cannot use any device other than my mobile phone. Additionally, there is non-existent customer support. If a function in your account malfunctions, or if your account was wrongly disabled, there is no person to email or talk to. You send a form, and then you never hear back. Sometimes, the malfunction disappears after a few weeks, but many times it does not. People who submit appeal forms on being wrongly disabled do not hear back for months, even years. Instagram does not give a *** about customer satisfaction, and it is hell-bent on driving its users away, even those who support it with advertising dollars.

Lastly, the advertising on Instagram sucks in reaching out to your target market. I selected a few countries that I wanted my ad to reach, but the analytics indicated that most of the people who saw my ad were from one country. Instagram has an arbitrary way of deciding who your target market is, regardless of what you want.

To summarize, I really regret wasting four years of my life building up an account on Instagram, including paying for advertisements here. It was like being in an abusive relationship with a crazy person who keeps malfunctioning, changing their mind on what is acceptable, acting passive-aggressive non-stop, and caring nothing about your (advertising) needs. It is only happy to take your money, provide zero customer service, and then dump you by deleting your account.

My advice is - stay far far away before you get sucked in.

I decided to create an Instagram account during the lockdown when Facebook blocked me for no apparent reason. I thought it would be a great way to stay in touch with people, but it turned out that most of the people I know don't have an Instagram account. As an amateur photographer, I started uploading my travel photos, but I was disappointed to find that there were very few people who shared my interest.

One of the biggest issues I have with Instagram is that it cannot be fully used on a PC. I have to transfer my photos to my mobile every time I want to post something. The app itself is also quite buggy, and it crashes every time I try to post something on other sites like Facebook. It's frustrating when I have to modify something under a post, and it's a 50-50 chance that it will be successful. The keypad often covers what I'm typing, and the photo won't upload. It's also frustrating when the app chops off part of my carefully positioned photo.

Since I installed the app, I have to charge my phone more often, and I've heard that I'm not the only one. The users' community is also a mixed bag. There are many shameless, shallow, and blithering idiots on the platform. Some users follow me, so I follow them back, but they unfollow me a day or a few hours later. It's frustrating when I see users with seemingly lower quality content than mine gaining hundreds of thousands of followers. I've tried many tips and tricks with the tags, timing, and promoting it on other sites, but none of them worked. I don't pay for it, so that could be the problem.

There are also users who spam-comment under my photos to follow them, but they wouldn't follow back or do the aforementioned "pull the d*** move." It's just socmedia, and it happens everywhere else. Some users even sell their paper-writing services, which is just disgusting. I worked hard for my diploma, and these people encourage others not to bother with it.

I've accepted that only a few people are interested in my travel photos, mostly cultural, not cocktail-on-the-beach kind, with very few selfies. It must be like "uh, another UNESCO World Heritage site photo, meh." I don't think I can do more than I already did. So, Instagram is a waste of time for amateurs like me who are seeking feedback. However, I see it as a way to gain experience.

When I’m watching a YouTube video and think it’s cool and want to share on instagram I can’t without picking one person to share to. And I can’t find the stupid link button after I’ve copied the link. Why can’t I just hit share and then post and voila! Facebook lets me do it in two easy steps not a million that gets me nowhere like on instagram! You guys really suck!

Every time I enter my debit card or credit card details in Meta/Facebook Pay, a message pop out saying. "Request Not Completed. We noticed something unusual and, for your security, this request couldn't be completed. Please try again later, or visit our Help Center."

I tried using different credit cards, debit cards and even with PayPal but nothing worked.

Yes, I had to contact the Meta/Facebook Support team hundreds of times through live chat and email but I keep getting the same generic responses such as “contact our Meta ads manager support team and they will help resolve your Meta/Facebook Pay issue”. but I had contacted them multiple times then I have patiently waited for almost a year and Meta/Facebook Support has completely ignored me and never helped resolve my Meta/Facebook Pay issue.

To whom this may concern, please respond to this email.

I have been wrongly suspended on Instagram due to myself cleaning out my following list. It has been compromised however I cannot log back into my account anymore as it is requiring me to update my password as I do NOT know my original password to begin with or otherwise it has been changed by a hacker

I've tried to reach out for help via instagram support but they are uncontactable and kept getting sent back to the same links that don't help solve any issue!

Or otherwise links are broken 😡

This is completely unacceptable and I want to actually contact someone instead of another automated message I keep on getting.

I have screenshots to further prove what had went wrong when trying to regain access to my account otherwise I want them deactivated!

Instagram allows racial/verbal abuse ! Allows people to be racially abused, then when you retaliate, all of a sudden, it's against the community guidelines ?! That's outrageous ! Make's me think you lot are racist aswell. You block and remove all the rest of the comment's,.but allow racism. All sensitive comments should be flagged and removed, but you remove the response instead ?!

I've been using Instagram for a few years now, and I have to say, it's not my favorite social media platform. Sure, it's great for sharing photos and keeping up with friends, but the whole "Instagram marketing" thing is a bit ridiculous.

It seems like the only way to get a lot of followers on Instagram is to be a hot girl who travels the world. I mean, seriously, have you seen some of these profiles? It's like they're all clones of each other. And don't even get me started on the people who pay for followers. It's just not social, you know?

I have around 400 followers on Instagram, which is fine, but I have thousands on other social media platforms. It's like Instagram is rigged based on revenue or something. The people who pay for followers keep contacting me and offering to sell me followers. It's so annoying. I get messages from these "Instagram marketing" people every day, telling me I should be friends with this person or that person. But why? Because they paid for it.

Overall, I like Instagram, but compared to Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, and others, it's definitely the worst. I mean, just look at this message I got from an "Instagrammer." It's clearly a paid message, and it's just sad.

But hey, if you're into the whole "Instagram marketing" thing, go for it. Just don't expect me to follow you.

The ads on Instagram are not up to par. I tried to run my ad in multiple countries, but the analytics showed that all the impressions came from just one country. Instagram decides which country your ad will be shown in, and you have no say in the matter. I'm not even sure if Instagram is targeting the right audience based on their interests. If your ad doesn't get enough clicks or meet your advertising goal, Instagram doesn't seem to care. There's only a survey at the end of the advertising process, and no one follows up with you if there's a problem.

I decided to stop advertising on Instagram when they charged me for an ad that I had paused. They claimed it was because of some issue with my ad spending limit, but I checked my account and there was no limit set that would have prevented my ad from running. Why should I be charged for an ad that wasn't even shown to anyone? And of course, there's no way to complain or get any kind of customer service.

It's clear that Instagram doesn't care about customer satisfaction. If something goes wrong, you're on your own. It's a shame because Instagram has so much potential, but their advertising system needs a lot of work.

Are you a Liberal? If so, Instagram is the perfect place for you! However, if you have any other political opinions, be warned that your account may be deleted. It's not just political opinions that can get your account taken down, though. Innocent accounts can be reported and taken down easily. All it takes is for someone to spam report an account they slightly dislike, and boom, it's gone.

If your account does get taken down, be prepared for a long and frustrating process to get it back. You'll have to spend hours talking to Instagram support, and even then, there's no guarantee that you'll be able to recover your account. In fact, you may even be banned from creating or logging into any accounts.

I've had 8 of my political accounts taken down by people who simply dislike them. I've also had people raid my account by getting others to spam it. It's a frustrating experience, to say the least.

In fact, I even got an account taken down that had 27k followers (@pro. Choice) just to see if I could. They did eventually get their account back, but it took 1-2 weeks.

In summary, Instagram has terrible support and staff, and you can be deleted and punished even if you haven't broken any rules. So, if you're thinking about joining Instagram, be prepared for a bumpy ride.

Instagram is a social media platform that has been around for a while now. It has a lot of users who use it to share their photos and videos with their friends and followers. However, the platform has some issues that need to be addressed.

One of the biggest issues with Instagram is its customer support. It is almost impossible to get in touch with a human being to address any concerns or issues. I have tried several times to type out a concern, but nobody ever got back to me, even years later.

Another issue with Instagram is its algorithm. It randomly kicks women off the platform for posting anything that is less than a t-shirt and shorts. If you post a bikini, Instagram will think you're selling STD's. If you're a nude artist, model, or photographer, Instagram will ban you with no warning, despite it being art. They think everything that isn't rated E is the devil.

It would be great if Instagram could make accounts not 18 and up, unable to see those who verify 18 and up, and stop punishing their own users who keep people online and viewing for being themselves. The shadowban is a real issue, and it's frustrating to lose accounts with several followers that I worked hard for because of their algorithm thinking my nude photography is prostitution or something.

In conclusion, Instagram needs to get its act together. The platform has a lot of potential, but it needs to address its customer support and algorithm issues. I honestly hate this whole app and site, and I hope they can fix these issues soon.

I gotta say, Instagram ain't all it's cracked up to be. As a small business owner, I was doing pretty good on my own, gaining followers and promoting my art on the platform. But then, out of nowhere, I started getting these messages from Instagram saying I was doing too much and they wanted to limit my actions. They accused me of using some other service to gain followers, which is just plain wrong. I do everything myself, and I'm just trying to get my business off the ground.

So I went to the help page to see what was going on, and they had this video about how Instagram can help businesses connect with customers. What a joke! They're doing everything they can to prevent me from gaining followers and promoting my business. It's really frustrating, and I don't know how much longer I can keep using this tool.

Every day, I'm only allowed to get a handful of new followers, and they won't let me delete people who aren't interested in my business. It's like they want me to fail! But I'm not giving up. I create and sell art on Etsy, and I donate the proceeds to animal rescues. It's a cause I'm passionate about, and I'm not going to let Instagram stop me from making a difference.

Overall, I'd say Instagram is a pretty disappointing platform for small businesses. They claim to be all about helping businesses connect with customers, but in reality, they're just hindering our progress. If you're a small business owner looking to promote your brand, I'd recommend looking elsewhere.

Instagram is a social media platform that has been around for a while now. If you're thinking of using it to advertise your business, you might want to think twice. I've been using Instagram for advertising for over a year now, and I've spent a lot of money on it. But I've come to realize that paying for advertising doesn't necessarily bring people to your storefront.

One of the biggest issues I've had with Instagram is trying to resolve issues with them. It's almost impossible to get any help from them. I've been trying to get an issue resolved for several months now, but they don't respond to help requests. It's frustrating, to say the least.

Another issue I've noticed is that the number of followers you have directly affects the outcome of your advertising. If you have more followers, your advertising will be targeted to more people. But even though I get dozens of new followers each week, my numbers stay the same. It's like I'm stuck in a rut.

I tried harassing Instagram through their bug reporting system a few weeks ago, and it actually worked. My number of followers finally increased by 5 followers. But then it stopped again. Now my reports won't go through, and I just get an error message. It's like they're ignoring me.

I bet they'll get a hold of me when they can't collect what I owe for advertising. It's not free! I pay for services for my business. I can't wait for the class action lawsuit. I'm opting out and suing!

In conclusion, Instagram might not be the best platform for advertising your business. It's hard to get any help from them, and the number of followers you have directly affects the outcome of your advertising. If you're thinking of using Instagram for advertising, you might want to think twice.

Instagram, man, it's like, really messing with businesses, you know? Like, it's killing the vibe of this awesome platform because it's stopping us from sharing viral content! And if you can't share stuff without getting your account blocked, then what's the point of even being on this social media, you feel me? It's so easy for anyone to just send a copyright infringement report and Instagram will believe them and block you in a hot second!

And like, what's up with this whole thing where even if you credit the source, you're still violating rights? That's how Facebook died, man. They don't show anything organically anymore, just paid ads. And Instagram is heading in that direction too. Shame on them for killing such a great platform. I hope some other platform comes along soon with a better vision for sharing content.

My account, @putonapron, got blocked after just four reports from some crazy bakers that I credited in my post. Four reports and you're donezo. My 125K account disappeared in seconds, and all I got was a notice saying my account was deactivated. Like, what the heck, Instagram?

Honestly, this platform is just stupid and absolutely useless. It doesn't even sell your products well, it's just a fast-scrolling feed. If you want to sell stuff, use Pinterest or sell on Amazon. Don't waste your time with Instagram.

OK, I got to be fair.
There are millions of, let's call them Kids (to avoid some sexual discrimination ban) who want to show themselves off, or the food they eat, or the cloth they wear, or the... whatever and, for them, Instagram is the perfect show off tool.

For me?

I can't stand AII (yes, that's 2 'I' instead of only one but you are smart enough to figure what the second 'I' stands for).

I tried to post a "Free Food Tasting" event and was instantly 'BANNED" by Instagram's AI algorithm... whatever, telling me I went against their community guidelines by posting anything graphic violence, sexual activity and hate speech.

Really? Posting a free food tasting event is considered THAT?

Don't you just LOVE artificial intelligent idiocy? You gotta love it.

The I complaint 3 times.

Then Instagram changed their mind. Now they tell I posted the same too many times.

I got 7,... that's S E V E N posts on my f88king Instagram account and not one post is about a free food tasting, NOT 1!

So, Instagram, go and Fu8k yourself!

No, I don't post a photo publicly so other 888 can fu8k with me. Anyone interested to see some proof, just contact me and I will provide proof.

I used to be a big fan of Instagram, but now I'm not so sure. Recently, my account got hacked and it's been a nightmare ever since. I've tried reaching out to Instagram for help, but they haven't been very responsive. My account is now being used to promote the selling of sex and spamming all my friends with half-naked pictures of women. It's disgusting and I don't know how it happened.

Not only have I lost access to my account, but I've also lost all my pictures, including ones of my family. I've called and emailed Instagram dozens of times, but they haven't done anything to help me. It's frustrating because many of my friends have blocked and reported the account, but nothing has been done.

When I called Instagram, I was redirected to someone out of the country who barely spoke English. They didn't even take down my account information before saying they would fix it and hanging up. It's a joke!

As a parent, I wouldn't let my kids use Instagram because they don't protect their users. They don't care about people promoting pornographic material and they don't have a viable help line or email to report these types of pictures. It's important to protect our kids from this kind of exposure.

Overall, I'm very disappointed in Instagram and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. It's not worth the risk of having your account hacked and dealing with their terrible customer service.

Instagram used to be a great platform for sharing pictures and connecting with friends, but ever since Facebook bought it, things have gone downhill. The algorithm that Instagram uses is more harmful than helpful, especially for users with small accounts. It seems like Instagram only promotes mainstream content and buries non-mainstream content, which is frustrating for people who are trying to get their voices heard. It's like Instagram is trying to dictate what people can and cannot see, which is not fair.

The tech support for Instagram is also very low quality, which is surprising considering how popular the app is. Their policies don't make sense, and they don't seem to be innovating anything. It's like Mark Zuckerberg and his crew just steal ideas from other apps and add them to Instagram. Reels came from TikTok, Stories came from Snap Chat, IG Shop came from Amazon/Ebay, IGTV came from Youtube, IG Livestream came from whatever the app it came from. It's like Instagram is trying to be everything at once, which makes the app very bloated.

What's even worse is that Instagram seems to embrace materialism, narcissism, and other negative things. It's like they don't care about their customers or improving their product. All they care about is making profits and screwing over their users who are not famous or anything like that. It's a shame because Instagram used to be a great app, but now it just feels like a negative place to be.

We are a minor hockey association that's volunteers are being attacked on instagram by a small parent group who have weaponized racism to get what they want. They have been posting lies, defaming our association and its volunteers. They tag, threaten and harass our executive daily with multiple posts. We have contacted the police about what they are doing as well as had several people report the accounts and posts but instagram has done nothing about them. We have been in contact with a lawyer as we want to know who the users of these accounts and then we want instagram to shut these accounts down immediately. @surreyhockeymatters, @surib88 and @SMHAwatchdog.

It is absolutely ridiculous the instagram has received multiple reports and done nothing about their own bullying and harassment policies.

Good afternoon,

Thank you very much for trying to help me. My Instagram account has been disabled since December 28th, 2022 for unknown reasons and without any warning or explanation. I did only share content about the animated show "Miraculous - Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir".

What I've tried so far to get in touch with Instagram/to get my Instagram account back:

- I've submitted multiple appeals to review my request but I have not received any responses even through it's been almost four months since my account has been disabled/since I've submitted my first appeal.

- I've sent emails to Instagram to let them know about my issue but they have not replied to any of them.

- I've reported the deactivation of my account to Instagram via the "Report a problem" function in the Instagram App.

- I've been in contact with the Facebook Business Support to talk to representatives from Facebook to help me with my issue but they couldn't help me either.

- I've tried to contact Instagram via Facebook, Twitter, LinkIn and other social media platforms but they have not replied to any of my messages.

- I've been looking for solutions on Google and YouTube but I could not find any helpful results.

To summarize my issue, I want to submit this complaint against Instagram due to the fact that they disabled my account for no reason and without any warning or explanation. Further, they do not respond to any of my communication attempts. This procedure is illegal and against the law. That's the reason why I wanted to turn to you. I kindly ask you to help me getting in touch with Instagram to resolve my issue.

I am looking forward to hearing from you. Please let me know if you need more information. Take care and stay safe!

Yours faithfully,

Maximilian Schuessler

My 6year old photography page was hacked at first by someone who impersonated my friend, Instagram then disabled it about 3months ago, I sent appeal emails to them but was only getting automated replies. Just got it back about 2weeks ago, my colleague at work recommended this techguy on Instagram @ stedtech11 , his email stedcodes @gmail. com. he was very helpful. Instagram need real humans to attend to our appeal mails.

Dear Complaints Board

It was on the 20th November 2022 when INSTAGRAM illegally logged my personal PAGE. My Instagram page @beverlyanpurple was a personal page, On my last post I was celebrating my new handbag, I posted a video of it then I tagged a Gucci page account, then I was logged out of instagram without a warning. And I now think I was logged out of instagram because I tagged a Gucci page. I lost my whole page without a warning because I tagged a Gucci page. I’ve been trying to appeal with instagram but I haven’t gotten my page back. I love and respect Instagram but I decided to bring this matter to the Complaints Board team because I know I illegally lost my page.. I’ve tried to appeal with instagram. Kindly see the attached pictures of me, On my instagram page it was only pictures of me dressed fashion wise because I love clothes, I did nothing wrong.

Regards

He said to me that have surprise to me the contains of package (Iphone 13 pro max, wristwatch, money and set of ring & necklace) and using Fairway Express Delivery. He sent the website & tracking number of the package to me, I've got message from this delivery. I must pay IDR 2 Millions to receives his package but I haven't made a payment yet and I'm still finding out about this delivery. I need for help from all of you to provide information. Do you know with the face below?. Thanks very much & I'm apriciate for all.

On December 8th, 2022, my account [edited] was hacked on Instagram.com, which banned my Instagram account. I have a business account and have also purchased on Instagram. Due to the Instagram banned, I no longer have access to my account and I have reached out to Instagram multiple times to appeal my ban and have provided them with a photo ID as per their request only to be denied. I’m not sure if the hacker started posting inappropriate photos on IG to get my page disabled. I would like to give this as a written notice that I have reviewed the Community Standards and have NOT in any way shape or form posted any violence, nudity, bullying, hate speech, fraud and etc. to violate community guidelines of Instagram and would like to request your assistance in helping me contact Meta for them to regain me access to my business account so that I may provide for my family. I’m not sure who I sent my ID to and hope they do not receive my info and commit fraud in my name. I hope the person reading this email can help me or forward it to the designated person who can help. Thank you!
