For businesses, creators, and ad accounts

Hacked, disabled, or restricted? We handle the recovery case.

Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and Meta ad accounts worked through the platforms' own channels. Start with a free case review. Most of the fee is due only if access comes back.

Diagnosis

Which account did you lose?

A disabled ad account and a hacked profile are different problems. They need different evidence and different doors.

Hacked

Someone changed your email, phone, or password and you are locked out of your own account.

Disabled or banned

The platform shut the account down, often from automated enforcement or mass reporting.

Locked out by 2FA

Two-factor is on, but the phone, number, or authenticator app is gone.

Page or Business Portfolio lost

An admin was removed, or the only admin profile is gone, and the Page went with it.

Ad account restricted

Advertising is paused or the account is disabled for "unusual activity" or a policy flag.

Impersonation

A fake account is using your name, photos, or brand to message your customers.

Fit check

Is recovery help right for you?

We turn down cases we cannot help. Here is how to tell before you fill anything out.

A fit if you

  • Own or administer the account and can show it
  • Tried the official flow and it failed or looped
  • Run a business, creator, or ad account that earns money
  • Want the account hardened so it does not happen twice

Not a fit if you

  • Want access to an account that is not yours
  • Were banned for a real, repeated policy violation
  • Expect anyone to guarantee what a platform decides
  • Want a new ad account opened to get around a restriction
Process

How your recovery case works.

We start with the official recovery path, document your ownership, and escalate only when the record is solid.

Free case review

A specialist reads your case within one business day and tells you honestly whether we can help.

Scope and quote

One incident, one written scope, one quote. You see what is included before you pay anything.

Evidence and submissions

We build the ownership record and work the correct platform channels in the right order.

Restore and harden

Once access is back, we lock it down: 2FA, admin audit, sessions cleared, backup codes stored.

Pricing

Performance-based. Most of the fee waits for results.

Every case is reviewed by a specialist before you pay anything. A small case fee covers the review and filing work. The rest is due only if access is restored.

Included

  • Case review and written scope
  • Ownership evidence file
  • All platform submissions and follow-ups
  • Security hardening after restore
  • 30 days of follow-up support

Not included

  • Any promise of what a platform decides
  • Accounts you cannot show you own
  • New accounts to bypass a restriction
  • Buying or claiming inactive usernames
  • Payment by crypto or gift cards

"The hacker turned on two-factor with his own phone. Three weeks of support tickets went nowhere. Ads Arsenal had the account back in five days and walked us through locking it down."

"Our ad account got restricted the week before Black Friday. They told us exactly what was fixable and what was not. It came back in 9 days, and they stopped us from opening a new account that would have made it worse."

"They were honest that my old personal account was a long shot. They got the business Page back first, which is what mattered. No hype, just a plan."

Our boundaries

What we do, and what the platform still decides.

Ads Arsenal is independent. We are not affiliated with Meta, Instagram, Facebook, or TikTok, and the platform makes the final call on every case. We never ask for your password, two-factor codes, or backup codes. Anyone who promises a guaranteed recovery, claims "insider access," or wants payment in crypto is someone to walk away from.

FAQ

Questions before you start.

Still stuck? The free case review answers the rest.

Can you recover a hacked, disabled, or banned account?

Often, yes. Hacked accounts with a clear ownership record have the best odds. Disabled and banned accounts depend on why the platform acted. Automated mistakes and mass reporting are frequently reversible. Repeated real violations usually are not, and we will tell you that in the free case review.

Which platforms do you cover?

Instagram, Facebook, Facebook Pages, Meta Business Portfolios (formerly Business Manager), Meta ad accounts, and TikTok, including TikTok ad accounts. If your case sits on another platform, ask anyway. We will say plainly if it is outside what we can help with.

Do you guarantee recovery?

No. The platform makes the final decision, and nobody honest can promise it. What we guarantee is the work: a written scope, every submission done correctly, and follow-up until the case closes. Because our pricing is performance-based, most of the fee is only due if access is restored.

How much does account recovery cost?

It depends on the case type. A hacked creator profile is simpler than a restricted ad account tied to a Business Portfolio. After the free review you get a fixed written quote with a small case fee up front and the balance due on restore. You never pay for a case we already told you we cannot help.

How long does it take to get my account back?

Our median time to restore is about six days, but typical cases range from two days to a few weeks. Platform review queues, how much evidence exists, and the account type all change the timeline. Treat anyone who promises 24 hours with caution.

The hacker changed my email and phone number. Can I still get it back?

Yes, in many cases. Check your inbox first for a security email from the platform about the change, which often includes a link to reverse it. After that, identity verification paths such as a video selfie are the next route. We document everything you still control so the platform can match you to the account.

My Meta ad account or Business Portfolio was restricted. Can you help?

Yes. We identify the exact restriction, fix whatever triggered it, and file the request through Business Support Home with the right evidence. Do not open a new ad account or portfolio while you wait. Meta can treat that as circumventing the restriction, which makes the original case much harder to win.

What do you need from me?

Proof that the account is yours: old login emails, invoices for ad spend, business registration, photos of you on the account, and screenshots of any messages from the platform. Redact ID numbers and payment details before sharing. We never need your password, and we will never ask for it.

Are you affiliated with Meta or TikTok?

No. Ads Arsenal is an independent agency. We know the official channels, the evidence each one expects, and the order that works, but we have no special access and we do not claim to. Be wary of anyone who says they have contacts inside a platform.

What happens after my account is restored?

We harden it the same day. That means authenticator-based two-factor, new backup codes stored offline, unknown sessions removed, admin and partner roles audited, and old third-party apps disconnected. You also get 30 days of follow-up support in case anything else surfaces.

Why does my account keep getting disabled?

Repeat disables usually come from one of four causes: automated enforcement misreading content, mass reporting by competitors or trolls, a risky third-party app with account access, or logins from flagged devices. Part of every case is finding the cause, so the fix lasts longer than the next review cycle.
