The service checks whether your business and dispute qualify. Assistance does not guarantee a platform response or restored access.
What to do
The authority appears in an official directory. We have not fully reviewed its local form or submission requirements. Use this link to find the authority; we have not confirmed that you can submit a complaint through it.
Find the complaints section or contact details. Check whether the body handles your issue and which documents it needs. This link is not a confirmed submission form.
For a locked New Zealand small-business account, the Privacy Commissioner directs users to small.business@mbie.govt.nz at MBIE. Explain the business, account, dates and appeal attempts. This is a request for assistance, not guaranteed restoration or a privacy complaint.
A review does not guarantee reversal. Do not duplicate a submission while the same case is still awaiting a response.
What to do
Open Meta’s final post decision and find the reference ID. Without it, this route is unavailable.
Choose Submit an Appeal on the Board’s site, sign in to your active account and submit within Meta’s stated deadline.
Check Track Your Appeal. Submitting does not mean the Board will select the case.
For eligible content decisions only: requires an active account, Meta’s final decision and a Meta-issued reference ID. The Board selects a limited number of cases. If the account is disabled and you cannot log in, this route does not fit.
This route concerns data rights. Being unable to log in does not by itself prove a breach: this is not an account-recovery service. Investigations and remedies depend on local law.
What to do
Describe the specific data issue. For access requests, first ask Meta for the data and keep a copy of your request.
Check local deadlines and requirements. Attach your request and reply, and explain which data rights were affected.
Keep the submission confirmation and reference number. If asked for more information, reply within the same case.
The Commissioner expressly says ordinary social-media lockouts are unlikely to be resolved through it. Refusal to provide requested personal data is different: ask the company for it first.
Check the service’s scope and any fees. Advice does not itself require Meta to restore an account.
What to do
Find the service’s contact details and choose your region if required.
Briefly explain the situation. Ask what remedy you can seek and where to apply.
Keep the submission confirmation and reference number. If asked for more information, reply within the same case.
Consumer Protection explains consumer rights and next steps. It cannot manage your complaint, investigate the dispute or enforce a remedy. Prepare the receipt and correspondence; separately check applicable law and enforceability for an overseas supplier.
This concerns harm or misconduct, not reversing any Meta restriction. If you face immediate danger, contact local emergency services.
What to do
Keep links, dates and evidence you can safely preserve. Do not redistribute illegal material; follow the service’s instructions on evidence.
Read the service’s rules, choose the relevant type of harm and complete the report. State whether you have already reported it to Meta.
Keep the submission confirmation and reference number. If asked for more information, reply within the same case.
Use Netsafe’s current incident-specific forms for bullying, intimate images, scams, personal-information misuse or other harm. Support is free and addresses online harm connected with New Zealand. It is not a general account-suspension appeal.

Help limit intimate-image sharing
The service helps limit sharing on partner platforms. It cannot remove everything from the internet or restore an account.
What to do
Check your age when the image was made and the service’s conditions.
On the official site, use only material already on your device. You do not need to send the file itself.
Keep the case details and follow the instructions for checking progress.
For intimate images of you taken at 18+, including threatened sharing. You need the file on your device. It stays there; a digital fingerprint is shared. Coverage is limited to participating public-facing platforms, not the whole internet or encrypted messages. Keep your case number and PIN.

This is a specific Harmful Digital Communications Act procedure. Check the grounds for an order, applicant eligibility, prior Netsafe process, service and costs. It does not inherently require a money claim and is not an ordinary account appeal.
What to do
Normally use Netsafe first and obtain its summary. Check who may apply and whether a statutory exception applies.
In the District Court form, identify the specific harm, evidence and order sought, such as takedown or stopping communications.
Check filing and service requirements, required documents and costs. Keep court notices and comply with their deadlines.
After Netsafe handles serious harmful digital communications, a separate District Court route may be available. Orders can require takedown, cessation and other specified remedies. This differs from the Disputes Tribunal and is not a standard account appeal. Check requirements, documents and costs before filing.
Small claims often concern monetary claims. The court may not have power to order account restoration. Consider fees, costs, deadlines, contract terms and local rules.
What to do
Read your region’s court rules. Check jurisdiction, claim limits and available remedies.
Identify the correct defendant and service procedure. Prepare a timeline, evidence and an amount based on documented losses.
Check required pre-action steps and fees. Use the court’s own form; this guide is not a court filing.
Check the Tribunal’s jurisdiction and correct respondent. The current limit is NZ$60,000; filing fees range from NZ$62 to NZ$496. Claims are usually brought within six years. Prepare evidence and settlement attempts. A foreign defendant or account-restoration request needs separate assessment.

Does every country have an account-recovery route?
We have not confirmed that every country has an account-recovery process outside Meta. This directory covers the listed countries, with options for data, payments, harmful content and, where available, account restrictions and court claims. Several links do not mean several ways to restore an account. We state when no suitable option has been found.
The review covers the entries in this directory. It does not establish that every possible route has been found. An accessible page, an applicable procedure and a successful outcome are different things.
How to use this directory
Different bodies handle different issues. A refused data request, a payment dispute and an account appeal involve separate procedures. Choose the one that matches your situation. The body you contact decides whether to accept the case and what action to take.
Each card shows when its sources were researched. No real complaints were submitted.
