This fucking site, I swear... I want to delete my account. But my account is blocked. I never used Facebook on another device than my PC, never on mobile. And to unlock my account to delete it, I have to... log in from another device. No other way. I tried everything, and the best is, their fucking customer centre is a useless chatbot. I hate this.

I deleted my account and it was reactivated 3 years later because they didn’t want to show less users to shareholders

Do you really not have access to another internet device? A friend or parent’s phone with a private browser window?

I'm in the same boat. I even tried emailing them my license. There is nothing I can do to delete my account from highschool.

because fake users drive advertising revenue.

That's it. Follow the money. It's ALL that matters.

Just start posting a bunch of political content they don't agree with to get your account deleted.
