3. Facebook ads manager doesn’t load – you have been removed from the Ad Account

A third reason why you might not be able to use the Facebook Ads Manager is that a Facebook Business Suite admin has removed you from the Facebook Ad Account.

In most cases, you should receive an email about this if you haven’t turned off these kinds of notifications.

If the removal was an accident, here are some tutorials that you can use or send the admin to add back to the Facebook Ad Account.

If someone has maliciously accessed your Ad Account and removed you from it, there is nothing you can do except trying to contact Facebook Support.

However, there is no guarantee that you will get back your original Facebook Ad Account, so can create a new Facebook Ad Account.

Similarly, it is also possible that you can’t load the Facebook Ads Manager, because someone has deleted the Facebook Ad Account permanently.

4.      You can’t load Facebook Ads Manager because of other technical issues

If it seems like there is nothing wrong with the Meta Ads Manager and you have access to the Facebook Ad Account, then the Facebook Ads Manager must be working so there is a technical issue with your browser/computer.

Here are the most common technical fixes that should resolve these technical glitches in most cases:

  1. Reload the Facebook Ads Manager page.
  2. Check your internet connection
  3. Log out and log back in to the Facebook Ads Manager
  4. Clear the cache in your browser
