Instagram account reactivates itself after deactivation
leila -
Hello,
The title is not complete: Instagram account that reactivates itself after temporary account deactivation is the correct title.
What is this due to???
Four weeks ago, I wanted to take a break from social media on my main account, so I deactivated my main Instagram account, everything went well.
Three days later, I go on Instagram on another invisible account (2 followers here, 3 subscriptions there) and in my messages, I see my profile, with the account name and its profile picture intact. Normally, when you deactivate an account, the profile picture disappears and the name is shown as "Instagram User."
I am shocked and I don't understand what's going on, I click on my profile and I see that it is not disabled at all, and that everyone has access to it.
The same thing happens when I type my username in the search bar, you can find it directly and it is accessible to everyone.
I don't understand what is happening, and those who know Instagram well know that it is useless to send them a message, they NEVER respond, even when you have a real problem.
So I log into the account, and when I want to deactivate it again, it tells me that I have to wait a week, which I do, and a week later I deactivate it again, and it goes well again, it is untraceable, etc.
And one week later (today) I see that it has been automatically reactivated again... This worries me...
Could someone have my password and log into my account with impunity? Or could it be a bug in Instagram? In any case, it annoys me, because I have to wait a week each time to deactivate it again...
It irritates me, I'm thinking about directly deleting my account and leaving Instagram if this continues.

Hello
I had the same problem and I don’t understand how it could have reactivated by itself, it worries me.
Hello, I just discovered the same thing just now: my account was disabled for exactly a week and now I've just seen that it has been reactivated by itself... And I can't even redo the action because it tells me to wait a few days... I think it's an "Insta" bug but it's very annoying...
Hello
I have the same problem. This is the third time I deactivated my account, but after a few days, I receive an email saying that at your request, your account has been reactivated, while that is not the case!
I even changed the password and activated two-factor authentication, and normally if someone tries to access my account, I should receive a text message, but that’s not happening either. I have never received a text message. I don't understand if it’s a bug or if someone has access to my account, email... and Instagram does not respond to my problem reporting messages.
Hi, has your account been reactivated since? Mine gets reactivated every week...
