My product Instagram account appeared to have been disabled some time ago when I was in the process of changing the email address. However, I can still see the product account when I login into my personal account. Can you help me get back my disabled product Instagram account?

Hi Speakerstan,

May i know the old email address that you use in registering the instagram account?

Customer

Hi Elixir,

Please, bear with me as I am a bit confused about my activities on the day that I was opening the account. I have no experience of using Instagram, as I have never even made a post on my personal Instagram account.

I think that I started opening the account using w**m@yahoo.com.

Then, I tried to change it to w**p@yahoo.com

The username is writingxapp

You can see the account with a search for writinxapp

I was setting up the account sometime around 13 December 2021

i tried to search your instagram account using the new yahoo email address that you provided and it is not connected to instagram. The old email address is the one that still connected to the instagram account. 

Posted
Customer

On 13 December 2021, I received an email from Instagram for me to confirm my email address: w**m@yahoo.com

 

Since then, Instagram has been sending regular emails to w**m@yahoo.com informing me of new posts. The last email was on 26 April 2022

 

 

On 15 December 2021, I receive two different emails of Instagram confirmation codes that I should enter; that someone tried to sign up for an account with w**p@yahoo.com  

Posted
Elixir Cada
Technician

can you please check if you received an email notification from instagram on this yahoo account w**m@yahoo.com.

Posted
Customer

OK. let me check.

 

Posted

It is only an email requesting that I confirm my email address that I received on w**m@yahoo.com

Posted
Elixir Cada
Technician

have you confirmed it?

Posted
Customer

I think when I tried to confirm it, there was an error. And perhaps that was why I tried to use a different email address two days later.

Posted
Elixir Cada

hmmm... would you mind if i connect to your computer so that i can check it thoroughly. There will be an extra cost for the remote support connection.

I have just remembered that I had linked the Writingxapp Instagram account to my Personal Facebook Profile Account.

 

So, the Writingxapp Instagram account can be accessed on/from Facebook.

Can the password be reset from the Facebook account?

I would wait for you/your response.

Please, can you be available tomorrow at 1.00pm (UK Time)?

Posted
Customer

I tried to login from my Facebook, but couldn't.

Please, when next can we chat?

Posted
Elixir Cada
Technician

the reason for linking facebook account and instagram account so that you can only post either of the platform and it will show on the other one. In terms of logging in, both accounts have separate passwords. You cannot use facebook password on your instagram account unless you make them the same password. 

Posted
Customer

There is provisions on the Instagram account that I accessed through Facebook that needs to be filled with phone number and email address.

I added my phone number and email address and then tried to login.

 

I then clicked "Fogotten your password?" and completed the next steps using my phone number.

Surprisingly, I received a access notification on my phone.

However, when I clicked on the access link, it opened my personal Instagram account.

The issue is that I had used the phone number to set up my personal Instagram account earlier.

I, therefore, changed the phone number that I had added today to the Writingxapp Instagram account to a different phone number.

But when I tried to login again using the new phone number, I didn't receive any access notification again.

Also, I didn't recieve any notification when I tried using the email adress (w**m@yahoo.com).

 

Instagram says that password can be reset through Facebook verification if you've previously linked your Instagram and Facebook accounts, as stated in Instagram website below:

https://help.instagram.com/ ***-***-**** 40564/?helpref=related_articles

Please, what time would be convenient for us to chat and try to fix this issue?
