Not that I am aware of Nichola.  I am normally always logged in and if I go to Facebook log in it opens a blank page.

This is the link that is showing - don't know if it means anything but there appears to be padlock before https:  Might always be there although can't say I've noticed it before.

Your FB account is still there so you haven't been deactivated - not sure why you would be locked out unless you have been hacked or blocked for some reason.

Maybe Steve Redding or Keith can offer a solution.

This morning I have received an Email notification from Buy, Sell, Swap Fethiye - if I click on this it takes me to Buy, Sell etc but I'm locked out as if I am no longer a member  There is a padlock showing at start of URL address!!!

Any advice would be much appreciated.

The padlock is not a bad thing, and wouldn't cause you to be locked out. Try removing the 's' after http to see if you get it in ok. I'm not sure what the problem is but that might at least get you in.

Maybe you can try the following

Email: appeals@facebook.com taken from this web site

http://gethuman.com/contact/Facebook/ - not sure if this is safe or not

Or Facebook help

The first week I was here I got on fine but then when I tried this week it just closed down. It is not a problem for me as I go home soon, but maybe a Turkish or browser thing?

Tried Facebook help but still no joy.  Don't seem to be able to log out of Facebook either.

I'm getting on no bother now, but I did get a message asking if it was me as I wasn't signing in from my usual location
