Using Facebook for business may seem like a trick skill to acquire, however, it is an awesome tool to promote your business and target an audience.
But what if you lose access to your Facebook Business page?
Today we will take you through the step by step process on what to do when you lose access to your Facebook Business Page. Unfortunately, the retrieval process is not that simple if you lose access to your Facebook business page. The procedure is different if you are the only admin. If there are more than one admin, different steps have to be taken. If you are the only admin, you can lose access only if you deactivate your Facebook account or accidentally change your Role in the page settings.
If you do the above by mistake, your page will now start to show up as an ‘Unofficial Page’. You will see a button asking ‘Is this your business’?Thereafter, you will be asked to put in credentials for claiming the business page or you will be asked to move your page with a verified business. You can only verify or claim the page by providing a valid phone number or verified business documents.
In case, if there are additional admins you could be removed by them by mistake. In this case, you can simply ask one of the admins and get added to the page. The other admin can go to the Page settings and add you as an admin under the Roles section.
What if someone removed you on purpose?
If you have been removed on purpose by other admins, there isn’t much you can do about it. Lodging a complaint with Facebook will not be much of a help because as per policy Facebook will not get involved. Conclusion:- As you can see, it is slightly tricky to get back into the admin role if you lose access to your Facebook Business page. Since the rules and guidelines for personal and business pages on Facebook are different it is best to be very careful about handling your pages.
