Dear @Thamsanqa_Guidance ,

If your WhatsApp account is banned due to using GBWhatsApp, follow these steps to try and recover it:

Step-1: Uninstall GBWhatsApp Immediately – WhatsApp does not support third-party apps, so remove it from your phone.

Step-2: Install Official WhatsApp – Download and install the original WhatsApp from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store.

Step-3: Request an Unban from WhatsApp

  • Open WhatsApp and enter your banned number.
  • You will see a message saying your number is banned. Click on “Request a Review.”
  • Explain that you were using GBWhatsApp unknowingly and assure them that you will use the official app only.

Step-4: WhatsApp Support

  • Contact WhatsApp

  • Send an message with your phone number (with country code) and request reactivation.

Step-5: Wait for Response – If WhatsApp determines your ban is temporary, you may get your account back within 24-48 hours. If it’s permanent, you will need to register a new number.

Next time, always use the official WhatsApp to avoid getting banned again. Let me know if you need more help!
