I think this is what apply the most.

They said i was reported but refused to tell me the offence for the privacy of the reporter..

How do i get around this?

They don't reply their email again.

am telling u out of my experience. Then will b lift within one month

Ifesinachi22:


How did you resolve the issue

LEAVE THE SIM OUT OF MY PHONE FOR LIKE 4 MONTH BEFORE APPLYING AGAIN

Nogymmarts:


LEAVE THE SIM OUT OF MY PHONE FOR LIKE 4 MONTH BEFORE APPLYING AGAIN

This is my main Sim that i answer calls with. That means i should buy another phone

Yes ooo, it's too almost 3months to get it back

Ifesinachi22:


That is what I'm afraid of.

Why will it be up to 3 months?

They say someone reported me but for the privacy of their they won't tell me the offence so i won't know who reported me.

What am i going to do?

You just have to wait it out...most times sending emails to them is a waste of time cos they don't bother to reply

Sixfiguresmart:
Yes. I sent a message and they banned me. But, this is my current predicament:

On Saturday it started drizzling in the morning and I rushed out to collect my clothes on the line. So, instead of picking one by one I spread my arms and collected them. Unbeknownst to me, I collected my neighbour's daughter's undies. Nice blue undies I love the design and color.
So, when she returned from school she started asking neighbours and surprisingly no one else was home at the time it rained. Girl is only 19ish and she has called her pastor to the house and they have been fasting and praying. They are trying to escalate the case and they might start imagining that I am a ritualist.
How do I return the undies without problems? Or, should I just throw it away? Cos, once I go near the line now, they are always watching from their windows

Lol... U no well.

It's beta u tell dem u did it unknowingly... Return d pant. Certainly she will get it burnt. But I think it's beta da way dan collecting uncalled curses and swearing from all angles.

Simply send them an email
They will reply and unban you

I used Whatsapp till around 2am this morning then i dropped my phone to sleep. I woke up this morning and open the app to check messages and saw i have been banned from the app. I have never heard anyone say he has ever been banned and i don't even know what i did. They said i should , i clicked on it and saw so many troubleshooting FAQ. They said, you can be banned if you are using 3rd party app like GB WhatsApp and other apps. Or if you are sending so many messages to people without your with Business WhatsApp. All these does not apply to me because i use the main WhatsApp not GB WhatsApp and i don't use Business WhatsApp to send messages to random people.

Who has ever encountered this or knows anyone that has encountered it and how was the issue resolved?

Or has my number been hacked?

Is your whatsapp not anti ban version?

Same thing just happened to me this morning don't no why it's happening, sent them an email till now no response from @whatsapp.com.

Oga that's ur own opinion, as for me that is what I observed when I wan barred from using whatapp for close to three months,my profile pic was removed, d groups I belong to I noticed I was removed from from each of them, thou I was able to restore my backup chat

olola4:


That's a flat lie, I have been barred several times and I still have my groups when I get unbarred.

I am also a victim, I was banned without doing anything bad, I just decided to as usual but to my surprise, I was ban. So I used another sim or number to open again as in another .
