Unblock Restricted Instagram Ads

My Instagram and linked Meta Business accounts were suddenly restricted for “usage of automation.” I have never knowingly used bots or unapproved tools, yet all ad delivery has been paused. I have already lodged an official appeal, but the restriction is still in place and support responses have stalled.

I need a specialist who has successfully overturned similar automation–related bans to step in, diagnose exactly what triggered the flag, and guide the account back to full ad-running status. That includes:

• Reviewing account history, ad assets, and connected apps to spot any compliance red flags.
• Drafting or refining follow-up correspondence with Meta Support so the case is escalated to the right internal team.
• Advising on immediate fixes—pixel setup, API connections, page roles, or content tweaks—that remove any appearance of automated activity.
• Confirming the restriction is fully lifted and a new campaign can go live from the existing ad account.

I am not looking to start over with a fresh profile; restoring this specific account is essential so my current audience data and ad history remain intact. Once unblocked, a brief hand-off session on best-practice compliance will be appreciated to prevent future issues.

If you have verifiable experience getting automation or similar policy restrictions reversed, please outline your approach and typical timeline when you respond.
