When Facebook removes a post or reel, you can disagree with the decision from Account Status. If the content comes back, the strike is removed too. If not, you may be able to go to the Oversight Board.

Questions

Where do I submit this Facebook appeal?

Facebook app — Account Status or Support Inbox. Go to Account Status (or the notification) → open the removed content.

What should I know before I appeal?

Can someone recover my Facebook account for money?

No. Only Meta can review your account, and the appeal is free. People who ask for money to "unban" or "recover" accounts are almost always scammers — never share your password or login codes with them.
