Facebook Help Center & Email Support Contact Address

It’s Unfortunate that there is no reliable way to contact Facebook directly – I mean, you can’t call, email, text or otherwise speak to an employee or a Facebook affiliate. However, you can use Facebook’s Help Center to diagnose and report an issue with your account and possibly someone on the platform will help out.

 

Using Facebook Resources for Troubleshooting

 

STEP: 1

Logon to open the Facebook Help Center web page. If you aren’t already logged into Facebook, you will be required to click on the login button at the very top right-hand corner of the web page to enter your Facebook login details, i.e. email address and sign in password.

 

STEP: 2

Review these options toolbar. This is located at the top of the screen, directly beneath the Facebook search bar–you will need to drag your cursor over each of the options to view its sub-sections. The available options include:

Using Facebook – This section of the Facebook Help Center covers basic Facebook functionality, including how-tos on friending, messaging, and account creation.

You are Managing Your Facebook Account – This covers items, e.g. your login and your FB profile settings.

Facebook Privacy and Safety – These subsections address account security, unfriending people, and hacked or fake accounts.

Policies and Reporting Section – This one covers basic reporting (abuse, web spam, etc.). It handles a deceased person’s Facebook profile and reporting of hacked / fake accounts.

You can as well check out “Questions You May Have” and “Popular Topics” sections on this webpage since they cover common Facebook issues and complaints.

 

STEP: 3

Choose a relevant section. For instance, if you are having an issue with an impostor account, you’d select the section “Privacy and Safety” and then click on “Hacked and Fake Accounts.”

 

STEP: 4

Review any additional options. In keeping with the impostor account illustration, you might click on the “How do I report an account that’s pretending to be me?” URL. Doing so will pop-up a series of steps that explain exactly how to solve your problem.

For instance, Facebook recommends that anyone dealing with an impostor account to go to the account’s profile page of the impostor, clicking …, and clicking on “Report,” then following the on-screen instructions to complete the reporting.

 

STEP: 5

Use the Facebook search bar to expedite your processes. To do this, simply click or tap on the search bar at the top of the Facebook Help Center page– it will say something like this “Hi (Your Name), how can we help you?”– and type in a few words related to your complaint just like the way you search on Google. You should see plenty of suggestions pop-up in a drop-down menu below the Facebook search bar.

For instance, you might type in “impostor account,” then click or tap on the “How do I report an account for impersonation?” results.

The Facebook search bar here only links to Facebook’s pre-written guides–if you are searching for an answer to a specific problem not covered in the Facebook Help Center, skip ahead to the Facebook Community page.

 

STEP: 6

Open the Facebook Ads Help Center page. If your business or FB page is having problems with ads, your questions are usually addressed in this ad section. To delve into advertising, you will want to click on Creating Ads or Managing Ads on Facebook.

For issues arising from advertising, you will need to click on Troubleshooting Your Facebook Ads and then choose an issue on the subsequent menu that appears.

 

STEP: 7

Visit the Facebook Community page. If you can not find your current issue listed anywhere in the Facebook Help Center, your best bet is to search for it in the community forums here. You will see a Facebook search bar at the top of this page–you can look up topics (example, disabled accounts) from this section.
