I. Common reasons for account suspension

1. Remote login risks and abnormal device behavior

• Using IP addresses from unsupported regions

• Frequently switching IP addresses or changing devices

2. Spread of sensitive content

• Frequent forwarding of images/links (more than 50 times/day)

3. Account association risks

• Log in to multiple accounts on the same device

• Shared payment method/network/registration information

4. Abnormal payment information

• Bind a non-Japanese credit card or PayPal

• Frequent small transfers trigger risk control

5. Abnormal behavior patterns

• Adding a large number of friends in a short period of time (more than 20 people/day)

• The interval between group messages is too short (less than 3 minutes)

II. Steps to unblock LINE

Step 1: Confirm the reason for the account suspension

First, you need to confirm the reason for the account being blocked. Generally, LINE will inform you of the specific reason for the account being blocked via email or in-app notification. If you do not receive a notification of the account being blocked, you can try to contact LINE customer service (it is recommended to contact a live customer service representative directly!) to inquire about the specific reason for the account being blocked.

Step 2: Submit an appeal request

After confirming the reason for the account being blocked, you need to submit an appeal through LINE's official support page. The specific steps are as follows:

• Open the LINE official website or app and go to the “Help and Support” page.

• Select the “Appeal” or “Contact Customer Service” option and fill in relevant information, including account information, reason for account suspension, personal contact information, etc.

• In the appeal form, sincerely explain why you believe your account was blocked in error, or explain that you have resolved the reason for the block (such as correcting a violation).

Step 3: Wait for review

After submitting your appeal, LINE will review it, which usually takes 1-2 weeks. During this period, you can keep in touch with the official through LINE's customer service system and provide more evidence to support your appeal if necessary.

Step 4: Successful unblocking and account recovery

If your appeal is successful, LINE will notify you via email or APP that your account has been unblocked. After unblocking, be sure to check the account activity record to ensure that there are no other violations and resume normal communication with your customers in a timely manner.

Step 5: If the appeal is not approved

If your appeal is not approved, you can submit another appeal or try to contact the official through LINE's social media platform for feedback. When appealing, make sure to provide sufficient evidence to prove the legitimacy of the account.

III. Anti-blocking Guide

1. Device security settings

(1) Dedicated device isolation: Each LINE account uses a separate device

(2) System parameter adjustment: It is recommended to adjust the fixed time zone to Tokyo time (GMT+9)

(3) Clean up data regularly

• Android: Go to "Settings → Apps → LINE → Storage" to clear cache and data

• iPhone: Before uninstalling and reinstalling the app, turn off iMessage to prevent data synchronization

2. Account independent IP

Use a fixed Japanese IP

LINE's risk control system detects the frequency of IP address changes and the location of the account. Frequent IP switching or using non-Japanese IPs is likely to trigger an abnormal alarm for the account, resulting in a significant increase in the risk of account suspension. Using a Japanese static residential IP can effectively avoid this problem. You can use IPFoxy's static residential IP, which provides a pure and stable IP that can significantly reduce the risk of an account being banned due to IP issues.

3. Regulate account behavior

(1) Do not send messages to your customers or in the group too frequently, and try to avoid @ing all members

(2) Ensure your content is safe and does not violate regulations: Disable sensitive words (such as purchasing, investment, and political terms)

4. Payment information isolation

• It is recommended to bind a Japanese virtual card

• Each card can only be bound to one LINE account

• Do not transfer money too frequently (single transfer ≤ 100,000 yen, daily transfer ≤ 3 times)
