How to Fix Your Grey Facebook Account

How to Fix Your Grey Facebook Account

How do you fix a 'Grey' Facebook account? That's the question that I was trying to solve for several days after discovering I was unable to share my Instagram Insights with a company I wanted to work with. I had no clue what a grey account was before I embarked on the rather painstaking journey of figuring out what was wrong. After spending days combing through my Facebook settings, I finally found out that once you have a grey account, you are totally doomed and need to start your facebook page over from scratch. Just kidding- there's a way to fix it. Here is what worked for me:
First step: Make sure your Instagram is a Business Page. Switch your account to a Personal Account, then back to a Business Account. If you get a red popup when changing back that says it looks like you have a Grey account, continue reading for how to get out of the grey Facebook account zone.
Important: It's not an Instagram issue or the company you are trying to work with. If you have a grey account, it's 100% your Facebook Page. A 'Grey Account' occurred if you turned a private page into a public page or merged duplicate pages anytime since opening the account (this apparently looks shady to Facebook).
Try this if you still have the login to the main account (not the Facebook Page, the regular account where you can add friends) . If you don't have access to the main private account, scroll to the second instruction list. This is a helpful excerpt by 'Timmy' in the Facebook Community Center, but didn't work for me.
"1. Log into your main (regular account)... and if you don't have one, create one.
2. In the core Facebook menu, choose "Manage Business" (at the time of this writing, it's found on the top Right of the page with a little down arrow icon... next to the also super small lock icon for security. The arrow icon is the farthest icon to the top right for easy reference.
3. On the menu, choose "Settings." The menu at the time of this writing is two tab style links: Home, Settings... and that's it. It's located at the top left below the login name.
4. On the menu on the left hand side, choose "Shared Logins."
5. The text that I saw when I clicked on shared logins is this: "If you use shared logins (also called gray accounts) to manage your Facebook Pages and ad accounts, add them to Business Manager. When you do this, you'll have permission to work on any of the assets with the same roles that the shared login has. If the shared login owns ad accounts and Pages, you can also transfer that ownership to your Business Manager. Business Manager is a more secure way to manage your Facebook Pages and ad accounts."

6. AND... we're done: simply click on "Add Shared Login" " (end of excerpt)
 
If you no longer have access to the main account, here's what you need to do. 
 
1. Create new private Facebook account (account #2)
2. Add account #2 as an administrator for the grey Facebook page.
3. Delete account (#1) from administrator list, leaving only the new Account #2 as Administrator. (If you're concerned about losing access, keep Account #1 as an editor, but I don't know if that will still work)
4. Create Business Page for Account #2 (The account setup for a Business Page for Facebk was as annoying as the grey facebook page and didn't want to register a new account at first. It finally registered after I completely logged out of Facebook and reset my browser).
 
Once you have done the 4 steps, check to see if you can connect your insights. If not, make sure your Instagram is still connected.
Good luck turning your grey facebook page into a cheerful functioning one!
XOXO

I want to use this Medium to say big thanks to Recoveryhacker101. In 2021, I met someone online, and we started dating. He told me how he was making money in the crypto world and got me involved. At first, I was making money until I invested up to $210,000 in this investment scheme. When it came time to take my profit after the end of the contract, they asked for a commission, which I paid another $10,000. They kept asking for more until I talked to a friend about it. She promised to speak to her husband, who happened to know a company specializing in recovering assets lost through fake investment companies. They gave me the contact for recoveryhacker101. After reaching out to them on WhatsApp, they asked for all the necessary details about the investment and got to work. They kept giving me follow-up updates, and I can’t describe my relief when they called me after two days to say that my investment and profit had been completely recovered. I just had to post this on every page I can to let people know that they can still recover their lost investment. I highly recommend recoveryhacker101. or email them at recoveryhacker101@gmailcom

When your life savings are tied up in cryptocurrency, you might expect a few bumps along the way. But nothing could have prepared me for the emotional rollercoaster of losing access to my $200,000 Bitcoin wallet. After enduring a painful breakup, I found myself in a whirlwind of emotions, and in a moment of vulnerability, I decided to change my wallet password to something that seemed clever and meaningful in the heat of the moment. Unfortunately, that moment of inspiration faded quickly, and I completely forgot my new password.
The sinking feeling of panic set in as I realized I was locked out of my own funds. My heart raced, and my mind spiraled into chaos as I imagined how my hasty decision had cost me everything I had worked tirelessly to build. The fear of losing access to my hard-earned money felt like a nightmare I couldn’t wake up from. It was a painful reminder that in moments of emotional distress, our judgment can become clouded.
Desperate for help, I turned to Rapid Digital Recovery, hoping they could guide me through this dark period. From my first interaction with their team, I felt an overwhelming sense of relief wash over me. Their empathetic approach and understanding nature reassured me that I wasn’t the first person to make a hasty decision during a turbulent time. They patiently listened to my story and the circumstances that led me to this predicament, making me feel heard and understood.
The team at Rapid Digital Recovery wasted no time getting to work. They assured me that they had the tools and expertise to help recover my funds, and their professionalism was evident from the start. Days felt like an eternity as I anxiously awaited updates. Each time my phone buzzed, I felt a surge of hope and dread, torn between the possibility of good news and the fear of disappointment.
Finally, the moment I had been praying for arrived. I received the call confirming that they had successfully cracked my password and restored access to my wallet. The overwhelming relief I felt was indescribable; it was as if a massive weight had been lifted from my shoulders. All the stress and sleepless nights melted away in an instant, and I was finally able to breathe again.
This experience taught me a crucial lesson about approaching both love and finances with a level head. Emotions can drive us to make impulsive decisions, and I’ve learned the importance of taking a step back to think things through before acting. Now, I securely store my passwords and have implemented strategies to prevent emotional turmoil from affecting my financial choices in the future. Thanks to Rapid Digital Recovery, I not only regained my access but also gained invaluable insights for a brighter financial future.
