Should I wait if it is a wave?

Check your notice. If a review is offered, you can request one.

Do public reports count as evidence?

No. Use your own screenshots and dates.

Where do I find official news?

Meta's business pages and Business Support Home.

Ban wave or your own account problem: how to tell

Reports of many accounts disabled at once do not prove that yours was part of a wave. Check what is specific to your account first, and treat public reports as context, not as a cause.

Signs it is about your account

The notice names a policy, payment or security reason.
A change on your side came just before it.
Only your assets are affected, not others on the same portfolio.

Signs of a wider fault

Many unrelated advertisers report the same wording on the same day.
No change on your side.
The notice gives little detail.

Even then, Meta decides; there is no public confirmation until Meta says so.

What to do either way

Save the notice, check payment and access, and follow the review route offered. Do not post private account IDs in public groups.

Official sources

Meta changes its help pages, menus and forms often. Follow the wording on your own screen and the current Help Center. Ads Account Recovery is an independent service and is not affiliated with Meta.
