You should exhaust your administrative remedies first. Go through your bank and through facebook. For your bank a chargeback, read the specific terms, it sounds like services not received would apply if you are unable to access the services. Presumably facebook is not continuing to run the ads if the account was banned. Eliott has some good contact info for executive customer service as you have already contacted them the normal way. Failing that it costs around $100 to file in small claims and serve the defendant, if you lose you are out that money, plus the time. If you win the fee is included in the judgement is almost every state. The process is to find the registered agent to name in the lawsuit, file the case with the clerk where the defendant is located and pay the fees, serve the defendant and have proof of service. Most likely they will negotiate a settlement and it would end there, before going to court. If you can't agree you go to small claims and either travel in person or appear by teleconference. Make your case with the judge and prove all the elements required for your type of case, it isn't super formal though. If you win and get a judgement and either they pay or you go to the sheriffs to collect.

In the county I live in I think the court fees are $250, plus service (Sheriff charges another $250 if you use them). Most judges will look at you crazy if your suit is for the same as the filing fees. I've been told I can't file a suit for less than the fees, but my fees are always zero as our county courts don't charge indigents. I often file suits just to vindicate my rights. I once won a case I filed for $1.81.

  Interesting. I have contemplated spending more on court fees than what would be my potential remedy, just for principle alone. I think that justice itself has value.

    IF you have the money, it's worth talking to a lawyer; because if you do things right you can often get "legal fees" awarded as part of "company is big dumb and pisses off the judge". But you have to do it right to get those.
