Locked Out of Facebook Account

A few days ago Facebook had some type of technical glitch which locked millions of people out of their accounts. I was one of those people and haven't been able to recover my account since.

When I login to my account I'm met with the message "For security reasons your account is temporarily locked".

After I click on the "Continue" button I'm told to enter a captcha code to confirm I'm not a robot.

And after I enter the captcha code I'm forwarded to a blank page.

I've tried every major browser and get the same results. I got so frustrated that I decided to create an entirely new Facebook account.

 

Did you manage to get your facebook account unlocked?

 

Nope. I'm still locked out. I just started a new Facebook account. Fortunately, I didn't have a bunch of photos and postings on my account so I was easily able to re-establish myself.

 

You may have had bad luck in reclaiming your old account, but it's a relief you didn't lose as much info/images as others.

 

You have this account with your own name and you have real friends which you know personally or were you using this account with a fake name and fake profile info? What message you get when you try to login?
