She couldn’t believe it, it had got to be a mistake. What on earth? She even tried several times to upload it, what do I do she said!? Jackie C felt frustrated and powerless.

Now before we go on I dont know about you Steemian but I think this is a very lovely piece of art so where and how did it get banned!?

Jackie C who lives in the Scottish borders is a full time carer for her husband who as been unable to work for now nine years because of ill health.
She also manages a online shop but because of sudden changes as began diverting most of her customers to her Etsy shop instead.
This is because of the sudden news on the ban on her regular Facebook profile.

Yes yes thats right facebook banning.. no surprises there eh? So Jackie C was uploading images for a pack of handmade Christmas cards for her Facebook shop when the social media giant decided to blocked them.

She received the typical automated message: “It looks like we didn’t approve your item because we don’t allow the sale of adult items or services (e.g. sexual enhancement items or adult videos).”

Yes indeed I remember receiving these messages myself when I was setting up an advertising campaign on the site it took months for it to get sorted and I would receive the message as soon as there was a person on the picture who by the way was completely clothed and not doing anything weird or sexual nor were their clothing provocative.

Now I know what your thinking Jackie must of used the term “redbreast” when uploading the image of the robin, well no she didn't.

So why on earth would anyone want to ban such a beautiful picture of one of Britain's most iconic winter birds?! This picture is stunning and yes I realise Robins are native and all year round they arent just winter birds but I hope you know what I mean.

And so facebook's response was the basic standard which I always received myself "Our team processes millions of images each week, and occasionally we incorrectly ban content, as whats happened here."

Strangely the images Jackie upload were suddenly approved on Friday and with that the 52 year old now has been inundated with orders.

Good on her to having her business back up and running but some arent so lucky they either never get fixed or take months to sort out which is why I gave up going down that road its difficult to work with a company like that.
