Join us in raising awareness and advocating against WhatsApp's unethical bans.
Unfair WhatsApp Business Account Bans: Join the Movement
The moment has been initiated to address the unjust banning of legitimate WhatsApp Business accounts without explanation or recourse. Many businesses have been affected by these actions, which lack transparency and fairness. The goal is to gather individuals who have faced such bans and raise awareness about this issue, advocating for change in WhatsApp's policies and practices.
No Appeal Process:
Many affected businesses have highlighted the lack of an appeal process for banned WhatsApp Business accounts. Emails sent to support@support.whatsapp.com receive automated responses, and there is no opportunity for a real human to address individual cases or provide further explanation.
Misleading Information:
Furthermore, the automated email responses suggest that the banned business account number can be used as a personal account. However, using a number banned under a business account for personal use is also not allowed on WhatsApp.
These issues add to the frustration and confusion faced by businesses affected by the bans, highlighting the need for clearer communication and a fair appeals process in WhatsApp's policies.
Purpose Of This Campaign
The purpose of the moment is to collect responses from businesses affected by WhatsApp's unethical bans and to gauge the extent of the problem. By highlighting the stories of those impacted, the moment aims to show the need for transparency, accountability, and a fair appeals process in WhatsApp's account banning policies. Ultimately, the goal is to push for changes that protect the rights of business owners and ensure fair treatment by tech platforms.
Process Flow:
- Gathering Stories: Businesses with banned WhatsApp Business accounts are invited to share their stories and details of their bans.
- Building Awareness: The collected stories will be used to raise awareness about the issue through various channels, including social media, news outlets, and advocacy groups.
- Advocacy: Depending on the number of responses and the severity of the issue, the moment may lead to advocacy efforts and reach out top higher management of Meta as well as authorities to get this issue addressed and have more transparency.
Screenshot: The support email auto-response indicates that the banned business account number can be used as a personal account. However, a user who was banned under their business account attempted to use it for personal WhatsApp, but was not permitted to do so.
