Tell HN: Meta developer account suspended (Score: 150+ in 11 hours)
Link: https://readhacker.news/c/6wCt8
Hi all, my Meta developer account was suddenly restricted without warning, and there’s no way to appeal or reach support. I believe this may have been triggered by a location (read, IP address) change: I’m a student-entrepreneur who recently moved from China to Kenya for school holidays.
I’m building a WhatsApp-based accounting tool for African small businesses, and this restriction is blocking critical operations. I’ve come across others facing the same issue, with no review option or clear reason:

Some of the people in these posts were able to contact Meta support, but it seems like Meta has disabled direct support chats.
Thanks in advance.
