Facebook as far as I know, would only delete a profile if it was attempting to spoof as another individual who launched a complaint with proof of themselves being the genuine person.

I haven't impersonated anyone, I do abide by their TOS, and Facebook is a necessity nowadays, no one is on another site.

Then you are saying they randomly deleted you without any explanation or justification?

Not sure anyone here could help anyway, but it is hard to give advice without any information at all

Someone managed to figure your password and removed your account then?

Facebook do NOT delete members without meaning, this would not benefit their business.

Yes, that's exactly what happened. Down vote me all you want, let's see how much fun you have when it happens to you. Basically, All I'm asking for is a way to get my account back, without a phone.

----------

Why not contact Facebook? Not much we can do for you here.

I have tried contacting them, a few hours ago, I was getting impatient and seeing if you guys had anything to suggest.

Chill. If Facebook went about deleting whom ever it pleased then I doubt anyone would be using it. You must be doing something wrong.

Yeah, I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, yet they won't tell me what, and I had only had that account for ~6 hours, the account before that was deleted as well, I only have 1 account at a time, I use my real name and age, I mean there's NO reason to boot me, yet they continue to do so.

Methinks there is more to this story than we are hearing

Looks like you're SOL then. Nobody here is in a position to help you, and frankly no one here believes you anyways. Keep trying to get in touch with Facebook.

And yet millions upon millions of people manage to use Facebook everyday without being kicked. Myself included. There must be something you're doing that you're not telling us about.

Hell, I have several fake/joke accounts which haven't been deleted. How about you post some screenshots showing the problem your having?

Whether the OP is unwilling or is unaware, there is more to this. FaceBook doesn't just delete/cancel an account for no reason. Either his account got hacked and the hacker either canceled the account or did something to cause FB to act or the OP was behaving in a way that FB thought inappropriate (even if the OP doesn't think so).

Either way, we have little to know information and the OP's out of luck since he has no phone. My only other suggestion is to reach out to FB's support

Facebook are welcome to delete me, although as posted here, they would not do this without what they considered to be a good reason...Contact the admins there for an explanation...I guess it's possible someone has used you as an alias, it happens. Haven't been near the place for over a year.

Actually, ALL of my friends have been getting deleted in the last week or so. :/

All I can say is - really?

Well I was surprised when my girlfriend disabled her facebook account she could no longer use Spotify. I just found that out that spotify makes you have a facebook account. That's pretty ridiculous.
