I recommend instafollowers because their service is usually fast but very efficient and their customer service is reliable offering you an expedited delivery in slow delivery case days or in the event where you purchase real content and you shall lose a like or follower instafollowers customer service is fast acting

Must be some Trump fans working at Instagram. Obviously- for a week now they have been monitoring my likes and responses...All on antiTrump posts...now I am back on restriction. Second time in a month. Guess I better give up.

Went for a touch up and cut. Cut uneven, Touchup too dark and not matched my color. I told owner and person doing my hair. A day later after friends commented how badly my hair looked I called to speak to her, employees refused to let me talk to her. I texted this woman and she could not even call back. I just wanted it fixed. I paid 100.00 for a procedure that left me depressed and looking horrific. An owner that can not return a simple call and fix an issue that would probably take 10 minutes, is not concerned about customer retention. I traveled from NY to NJ in my daughters recommendation because she, so far has been satisfied with service by the owner. I was having surgery and they refused to accommodate me. Very disappointed. The root touch up lasted: weeks, I could have used same Target product and find it myself for 18.00.

Tip for consumers:
Could not have anyone care enough to return calls or texts. My hair looks horrific and friends have noticed and it’s been stressful. And depressing. I only wanted to speak to owner

I see women post half naked photos on Instagram and as soon as I say something it gets removed? Like there was a girl that posted a coochie pic with 1500 likes and as soon as I posted "gross" it got removed for "harassment" like these nasty women can post naked pics but as soon as I say it's disgusting I get sensored?

A scammer cloned my account with my own screen name with "_" added at the end. This was YEARS ago. I've had everyone I know report it to get it down, I've reported it MULTIPLE times, I've tried everything to get it down. I have young children and work for the state that I live in. I do not want something like that out there tricking people in to thinking I'm doing sex work. It should be ILLEGAL to allow this. Instagram also allows violent videos of murder, child pornography and pedophiles to thrive on their platform. They don't care as long as they're making their ad revenue. It's absolutely disgusting.

I use this app for business and helping people in my community with their questions. It seems anytime I try to comment to help people ig removes them as spam. I can't even comment on my wife's posts. I am just going to go to yourube where I can actually leave comments for people. Ig sucks

Instagram are cowards. They hate pages that disagree with them politically or on moral issues and WRONGFULLY delete comments as SPAM when they are never violating their Community Guidelines.

Appeals button is a middle finger. Then they censor you from speaking for 24 hrs for "their definition" of "crimes" committed. They biasly cast sentence based on prejudice paranoia.

Their needs to be laws set in play for digital harassment by the makers of the app.

1 star, the Z's need to apologize for their violations.

Posts go nowhere. And even if it sez your photo is shared, it is not shared. See a hashtag that several days ago had content from more than one small business. After I upkoaded my photo to this hashtab, all of the content disappeared. See my screengrab.

I've been using Instagram for several years, and while there are occasional bugs and glitches, for the most part it runs incredibly smoothly. I love that it's so visual and I've found that it's a great way to connect with others within your niche!

Could not recommend more AGAINST this dodgy wedding planner. We paid her to deliver an amazing wedding, she talked up a big game, did not provide 3 quotes as we asked, instead pushed her overpriced suppliers on us, three weeks out from our wedding was the moment she realised she could not deliver and ultimately we had to get in a new planner to help complete the day and source last minute suppliers

Amber Jasper kept all the funds we paid her including the money for flowers which she obviously did not provide. She refused to repay any funds and we are now in the legal process to have our funds returned from this dodgy planner...

It was a stressful experience dealing with her and not something you needed when dealing with the stresses of a wedding.

Tip for consumers:
Amber Jasper engagement contract seems to clash with the Consumer law as she does not hold herself liable for non performance.

I had an issue with our business account and was not able to get assistance from anyone. They don't have a phone number to contact them or live chat, so you're left filling out their online form that gets you no where. Worst service ever.

Instagram and Facebook are the worlds largest scam companies. They've made several false invoices claiming my account owes them money for advertisement promotion. I have NEVER requested promo from neither Instagram or Facebook, nor have they ever promoted my page or posts. They don't even allow me to reach more than 20 people when I post a pic or story, yet alone promote me. This is the biggest scam company in the world right now.

I don't post much on Instagram, but I used to post quite a bit. I haven't posted in maybe half a year, but for some reason my Instagram account was suspended. I have no idea why, unless its because I like or send conservative posts such as the Babylon bee and the daily wire. I tried to disagree with this decision and go through and verify my account, but the verification codes didn't send until it was past the given time on Instagram and I was unable to verify and have been locked out of my account for 24 hours.

Instagram and its owners "Meta" will steal thousands of hours from its content creators and years of work — they will arbitrarily close your account with no recourse. While not violating ANY terms our account on fashion and lifestyle was closed for violating "community guidelines." Users can destroy brands and businesses if they "flag" your content in an attempt to steal your audience and compete.
Unlike similar platforms which penalize accounts briefly or temporarily—Instagram will simply close your entire page. If you try to contact support, you get a bot email reply. Horrible, horrible company and zero customer service.

Our thriving Instagram account with 190,000 loyal and dedicated followers was closed for NO reason.

Instagram is actually a corrupted company, and they also have a failed system.
They take money from other companies and allows them to do whatever they want on the social media platform.
The way they protect the right of their users is beyond poor. You cannot leave certain comments (even non-abusive ones), someone can report you for no reason and you'll get blocked or deleted.

Instagram maybe one of the so-called most popular social media platforms in the world, but it is not what it cracked up to be. If you are an upcoming talented person who wants to showcase your work, Instagram would disappoint you with its Facebook algorithm system. Like Facebook, Instagram would censor true independent voices as well. Like Facebook, Youtube, and Twitter, Instagram is also very toxic. Just like its predecessors, everything on Instagram is all about winning the popularity contest to see who get the most likes and followers. It is so childish. I can go and on. Social media platforms, like Instagram, can also lead some people into depression.

Always deleting my accounts for no reason and it is controlled by bots. The worst app of all time. I hate it. I've had to create my account about 6 times and I am beyond livid! Instagram needs to be deleted as an app to never resurface. They don't even one star.

Instagram for business is the best social media platform for me I personally really like because it is not just for sharing pictures,reels and stories but also I am working most of the time to promote the businesses and increase the sales. I run paid ads on Instagram see the insights of progress of that ad and the most important and great feature of Instagram business is that it allow us to targeted audience for our product and services as a result we get more sales so that is the most favourite thing which I like in this platform.

Not at all

THE WORST! My account of 10 years was disabled for no reason. I only used it for watching videos. I never posted anything and only followed 100 people. Instagram is about to be another MySpace. In the archives

I admit I am baffled about how this website is popular. Possibly just meta (met a) and historic (people are used to it). People may use this website because they don't realise how bad it is

To anyone who uploads content - to let you know meta have removed the search facility. That means any hashtags you use, don't mean anything, your content cannot be found because there is no search feature, you're shouting into the void

The user interface is the worst possible thing you can imagine. No search, no next page. Since no one can find your content, your photo album is essentially private. No one can find your content because they removed the search feature, which to be honest was always awful, but barely functional

Quick, tiktok is doing something. We need to copy it. My names zuckerberg and I have no business plan
