A suspension isn't always final.

What matters most is the exact reason Instagram gave and whether your appeal window is still open.

Recovery scams all start in your DMs.

People who've just lost their account are the easiest target online. Here's what a scam looks like, and the lines we never cross.

Example of a scam message. Never from us.
meta.recovery.agentMessage request

Hi! I work with Meta's support team1. I can unlock your account today, 100% guaranteed2. Just send me your password3 and the 6-digit code you're about to receive4.

  1. Claims insider accessNobody honest has a back door into Meta.
  2. Guarantees the resultInstagram makes the final decision. Always.
  3. Asks for your passwordNo legitimate recovery needs it.
  4. Asks for your codeThat code is the key to your account. It's yours alone.

  • Never your password.

    Not at any stage. Nothing we do needs it.

  • Never your codes.

    Login codes and identity checks stay on your own device.

  • Official routes only.

    Instagram's own appeal, report and verification processes. No "insiders", no shortcuts.

  • Your account only.

    We never help anyone get into an account that isn't theirs, whatever the story.

  • Honest odds.

    If a case isn't realistically winnable, we tell you in the free assessment instead of taking it on.

Someone claiming to be us asked for any of this? It isn't us. Our only channels are the ones listed at the bottom of this page.

FAQ

Questions people ask first

Can't find yours? Ask us on WhatsApp.

Do you need my password or login codes?

No. Never, at any stage. Identity checks such as Instagram's video selfie are done by you, on your own device. Anyone who asks for your password or codes is running a scam.

How much does it cost?

It depends on the case. The first assessment is free. You get a clear price after it, and the terms are agreed in plain language before any work begins.

How long does it take?

It depends on the type of case and on how Instagram responds. You get a case-specific estimate in the free assessment.

Can you guarantee I'll get my account back?

No, and be careful with anyone who does. Instagram makes the final decision on every case. What we promise is an honest assessment: if a case isn't realistically winnable, we tell you before you commit.

Do you have contacts inside Instagram or Meta?

No, and nobody honest does. We work only through Instagram's official appeal, report and verification processes. Anyone selling "insider access" or an instant unlock is running a scam.

My appeal deadline has passed. Is it too late?

Not always. If the account still exists or there is new evidence, options can remain. Tell us anyway. If nothing can be done, we'll say so plainly.

I live in the EU. Do I have extra rights?

Yes. Under the Digital Services Act, Instagram has to explain why it restricted your account, offer a free internal complaint process and accept certified out-of-court dispute settlement bodies. We use these routes for clients in the EU.

Can you get into someone else's account?

No. We only work on accounts that belong to the person asking. Removal requests need a policy or legal basis: impersonation, privacy, copyright, harassment or unlawful content.

Is my data safe?

The case form on this site doesn't store anything. It simply prepares a message in your own WhatsApp or Telegram, ready for you to send. What you send us is used only for your case and is never sold.

Which languages do you work in?

This site is available in 25 languages. Write to us in your own language and we'll reply in it. Everything runs remotely, so it doesn't matter where you live.

Who is behind takebackmyinsta?

takebackmyinsta is an independent Instagram account recovery service run by @0t0k0n. It is not affiliated with Instagram or Meta. The first analysis is free on WhatsApp (+90 530 379 90 58).
