You can open a support ticket and they'll restore it and include a BS apology about how your account was supposedly a false-positive of their anti-abuse system (where in reality it's just a way to harvest phone numbers out of easily coercible victims).
However, the main question is: why would you ever give your time to such a toxic platform especially when it's explicitly working against you like in this case? Just move on and give them the finger.

not how it works for me! i have friends on fb that i haven't talked to or seen since high school. i don't use fb proper but it's good to know that it remembers everyone so i don't have to. i guess it goes the other around as well.

There is something wrong with this for me.. If you don't remember people, are they really worth kepeing around ?
It is a great way to reach someone you want to get in touch with after a really long time, but that scenario is far more rare than people claim when they speak of the 'magic of facebook'.
It's not that rare. I met some friends in middle school about 10 years ago. When I move to the US, FB is the place to connect them again because we keep FB connections. A lit of people around is also in the same situation. Like the above comment, you never know.
Doesn't make it a less toxic place in any meaning. If somebody is such a diva they have an active presence on Twitter, there are almost always other means to connect.

Did you ask this back in 2008?
As someone who was ridiculed, outcasted and made fun at uni for not using social media because I didn’t want to submit my data online, it’s finally nice to find people are actually starting to realise this; just twelve years too late.
Can't confirm. Registered a new account a few days ago (deleted my old one years ago). Next time I tried to log in, they asked me for a phone number. I declined and didn't log in. Now the account is gone.
