Instagram issues statement amid reports of accounts being suspended

Instagram has issued a response to an issue which has seen people told they are suspended from the platform.

It comes as users of the popular social media app shared that their accounts have been disabled or suspended. 

One user took to Twitter to say: "Instagram seems to be crashing or my accounts have been disabled" 

Another Instagram user wrote: "My Instagram account was just suspended for no reason, not even a notification they took my account down :(."

The reports come according to Downdecetor that currently shows over 1200 reports of the app being down. 

In a tweet from the official Instagram Communications account, the Meta-owned company said: “We’re aware that some of you are having issues accessing your Instagram account.

“We’re looking into it and apologise for the inconvenience.”
