You are a fringe case and Facebook(or any big corporation) does not care about you. Yes, what happened was not extremely unusual, and yes your recovery methods should have worked, but for whatever reasons, you're an fringe case. It didn't work, but it's simply not worth their while to improve the system for fringe cases. The profit isn't there. I sympathize, I have lost Amazon accounts under similar circumstances. I got so angry I stopped doing business with them for a year. But I found them useful enough I opened a new account even though I despise the company. I just don't purchase any digital assets from them anymore.

> I just don't purchase any digital assets from them anymore. I never "purchase" (aka: rent) digital assets from anyone, unless I'm buying DRM-unencumbered open format media. I argue that any restriction outside of copyright and patent is not a sale. It is a form of a rental masquerading as a sale. I too have been bitten by shitty hardware remotely crippled, and bad software that was force-converted to cloud crap. Never again. If that means I stay firmly in the piracy school of though, so be it. I'm not going to be taken advantage of again.
