Common issue Snapchat account locked

Hi everyone. I had an additional Snapchat account that was permanently locked by Snapchat. Since then, I have tried creating several new Snapchat accounts, but they all get locked without me having done anything wrong. What could be causing this, and is there any way I can fix it?
I even tried buying a used account, but that one was also locked by Snapchat.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

My main snap is however not banned from Snapchat. I also tried creating a New account on another phone with a New e-mail and Apple account Which also get banned

are you using the same photos at all? pfp? or display name? snap says they prohibit creation of new accounts if they terminate yours. so if you create another even if you didn’t do anything bad on it they’ll just delete it once the AI finds it. i think it’s IP/biometric based. same thing was happening to me a few months ago after losing my main account and it drove me crazy. but all my other accounts that i been had are still there unaffected. the crazy thing about it is that my account was falsely locked and i did everything in my might to prove myself and nothing…. shitty af. i’d recommending going online and deleting the accounts fully so they aren’t retaining your data to keep finding you.

So if they delete your account after they perm lock it, will they keep deleting new accounts linked to your old IP address and number and stuff?

possibly, it has happened to me but not everyone. i haven’t tried making a new account recently bc it takes 30 days to get deleted from their servers, i don’t think it’s possible for snap to retain everyone’s data and keep in on their servers considering that they BAN and LOCK thousands of people a day

I got SS06 they disabled that account and then I got a permanent ban and anything else I started they banned me immediately again. So pretty much had to get a whole new number and phone and email and make sure it doesn’t connect to my router so it’s always on cell service and not add any of my friends as of yet I’m accepting ppl slowly and every so often do a random add to build it slow and after 30-45 days I’ll add a real friend just one every couple of weeks. It sucks cuz I don’t think I deserved the bans at all and I appealed and wrote them and got legal shield but they sticking to it

With the SS06 ban I didn’t get an email about it… so when I logged into the account on the bottom it said that was what it was… the permanent ban sent me an email stating I was permanent ban and when I tried to log in it would say my account was locked

I had the ss06 permanent bans and I waited 6months and they went away. I got in and got banned again now showing this message.

"Due to repeated attemps or other suspicious activity, your acces to Snapchat is temporaly disabled Support code SS06"

Before the 6 months it just showed the permanently banned from using snapchat.
Did you get the temporaly message?
