Hey there, Show
So about 3 years ago I got two bans for using 3rd party apps on Snapchat. I never have downloaded a 3rd party apps again. Today, my step brother was in town and needed to use my phone to check his Snapchat page (he has big snapchat pages). I let him use my phone throughout the day to get onto his account. Tonight his account got banned, like fully removed for violating terms of services, he was posting copyrighted material to a large audience. I had no knowledge at the time he was doing this. I guess he went to login to the account from my phone again after it got banned, and then it wasn’t there. He gave it back to me and I logged into my account and got a message that my account was temp banned. I went to the online site immediately to try and unban my account and it said I was permanently banned... First off, how do I get banned when my account literally had nothing to do with anything? Secondly, I thought you get more warnings then two? I emailed Snapchat support and explained that I allowed my step brother to use my phone for snap and I had nothing to do with anything he did. Do you think you will unlock my account? I have PRICELESS memories on this account. The account is still there, my friends can search it up and stuff, just can’t access it. Kinda freaking out, thanks guys UPDATE: THIS WORKED!!! First go to the “Unlock” feature on the Snapchat website. Unlock your account. Don’t login immediately. Delete Snapchat and restart your phone. Then download Snapchat back. Go to your settings and change the date to April 5th. Go to the Snapchat app and login. It should just keep spinning because the whacked out date won’t let you login. WHILE it’s still spinning go to your settings and flip your date back to automatic (if it’s an iPhone) and that should patch the correct date in. Go back to snap and you should be logged in! Do note that you’ll probably have to do this every time you login. Thanks for the help guys, hope my experience can help you guys! Snapchat’s checks for T&C violations aren’t continuous, so you can easily get away with unknowingly breaking minor rules. It’s when the next compliance sweep comes up that you can have your
account suspended or banned from Snapchat. Losing access to hundreds or thousands of your photos and videos is frustrating. DoNotPay has a quick solution if you’re wondering how you can appeal your suspension or ban! Sign
up for DoNotPay and rely on our Unban My Account tool to file an unban request in a few simple steps. If you tried to log in only to find out that your Snapchat account is locked, it may be that you violated some of their Community Guidelines or Terms and
Conditions. The unacceptable forms of conduct can be divided into three groups:
Terms of Service ViolationHere are the most frequently dismissed rules that get people Snapchat-banned:

Illegal Content or BehaviourDisplaying any form of conduct that is illegal and punishable by law is easily detected and sanctioned by Snapchat:
How Do I Fix My Snapchat Ban?Here is how to get unbanned from Snapchat via their platform:
If you have previously received a message notifying you that your account will be locked because of disregard for rules other than third-party app prohibition, you may not be able to unlock your account for some time. In that case, let a longer period pass before you attempt initiating another unlock process. Bear in mind that Snapchat bans are IP-based, so you won’t be able to bypass the ban decision by simply opening a new account. Your attempts at circumventing this ban will only prolong it. Still Banned From Snapchat? DoNotPay Helps You Get Unbanned in a Few Easy Steps!Filing a complaint through the Snapchat platform is fairly simple, but you may have to wait for the response frustratingly long.

This demand can be more effective than the one sent through the Snapchat platform as it puts additional pressure on their complaints department to treat your case as a priority.

How long do Snapchat bans last?A temporary lock lasts 24 hours. If your Snapchat account has been locked, it may mean we've detected some activity from your account that we prohibit.
Can Snapchat ban your IP address?If you can't log into Snapchat, and you see a message that your network is blocked, then Team Snapchat may have detected suspicious activity from your IP address, or the use of a VPN.
