Real cases, published with permission. Every case is assessed individually.

Step by step

How it works

Four steps, from first contact to the answer.

  1. Free assessment

    You answer a few questions about what happened and send us whatever you have: screenshots, emails from the platform and the account's @ handle. It takes about a minute.

  2. Recovery with IT technicians

    If the case allows it, our technicians work to recover the account. Simple cases can be resolved in up to 60 minutes, and you only pay if the account comes back.

  3. Court route with partner lawyers

    When the case needs to go to court, we prepare the case file and our partner lawyers in the UK take over. You get the fees in writing before you decide.

  4. Follow-up until you get an answer

    You talk to our team in English, Portuguese or Spanish and get an update every time the case moves forward.

Services

What we do

Two routes, handled with the same care. Often both work together on the same case.

Recovery with IT technicians

For suspended, hacked or locked accounts.

  • Free assessment and a written price before we start
  • You only pay if the account comes back
  • 7-day guarantee once the account is back: if it goes down within that time, we redo the work or refund you

Court route with partner lawyers

For cases where the appeal has been refused or technical recovery is not possible.

  • A case file with the evidence organised and translated
  • Partner lawyers in the UK who already take on cases against Meta
  • Follow-up until the decision: our team liaises with the lawyers for you

Account protection

A separate service to stop the account going down again, as a one-off review or with ongoing monitoring.

Content removal

Pirated copies of your courses and materials, fake profiles and deepfakes.

Several accounts

For businesses and agencies, a tailored proposal covering every account and every login.

We also handle withheld balances, pixel access, which comes back with the ad account, and reach that has dropped with no explanation.

Our story

Born from a problem we knew from the inside

  1. 2019

    João Pedro starts out as a paid ads manager and begins to see clients lose profiles and ad accounts up close, with nowhere to turn.

  2. 2022

    João Pedro teams up with Hélio Vagner, a Brazilian lawyer who saw a route through the courts for these cases. The work begins inside a business law firm with more than 30 years of practice.

  3. 2025

    After more than 500 cases, including Brazilians living abroad, SOS Unlock and Hélio's law firm, HV Advocacia, are born as partners. The first clients from London, Portugal, Spain and Latin America arrive.

  4. 2026

    Service under the SOS Unlock brand in six languages, with partner lawyers in the UK, Spain, Italy, France and Colombia, and the European route for Portugal and Ireland.

  5. Today

    More than 2,000 cases and over 90% success in account recoveries, from personal profiles to some of Brazil's best-known brands.

João Pedro Cançado, founder of SOS Unlock

Who is behind it

João Pedro Cançado

Founder of SOS Unlock

He has been a paid ads manager since 2019 and has watched clients lose accounts, ads and sales with nobody on the other side to answer.

In 2022 he also moved to the other side of the problem: getting those accounts back. Today he heads SOS Unlock, which has passed 2,000 cases in Brazil and abroad.

Where we work

Where we can help

Our IT technicians work with clients all over the world. The court route depends on the country.

We serve clients in the United Kingdom

We have been serving clients in London since 2025, and our IT technicians have already recovered accounts for clients there. In 2026 we started serving the UK under the SOS Unlock brand, in English or Portuguese.

Cases that reach us from the UK

  • An online shop whose Instagram was disabled and whose appeal was refused
  • A content creator whose profile was suspended with no explanation
  • A marketing agency locked out of one of its accounts

How we help

Our IT technicians assess whether the account can be recovered without going to court. If it cannot, our partner lawyers in England take over. They already handle cases against Meta and start with a fixed-fee consultation.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Are you hackers?

Not in the sense of hacking into accounts. Our IT technicians know the platforms inside out and use that knowledge to return each account to its rightful owner, always by legal means. We do not hack into anyone's account.

Are you lawyers?

We are an account recovery company. When a case goes to court, the work is done by our partner lawyers in the UK, under a separate agreement. We prepare the case and follow it every step of the way.

Do you guarantee the account will come back?

Nobody can guarantee that. The final decision rests with the platform, and in court with the judge. What we can say is that more than 90% of our unblocking cases end with the account back.

How much does it cost?

The assessment is free. For recovery with IT technicians, you only pay if the account comes back. On the court route, you get the partner lawyers' fee and ours in writing before you decide.

What if the account goes down again?

Once the account is back, you have a 7-day guarantee: if it goes down within that time, we redo the work or refund you. After that, there is account protection, a separate service.

I have already appealed and it was refused. What changes now?

The approach. Instead of sending the same form again, our IT technicians tackle the case differently. If the account does not come back, the case can move to the courts with partner lawyers.

How long does it take?

Simple cases can be resolved in up to 60 minutes. On the court route, a formal complaint usually gets an answer within a few weeks; a lawsuit takes longer. The timeline is set out in writing in the proposal.

Has your account gone down? The sooner you act, the more evidence is still available.

The assessment is free and takes about a minute. Then you simply carry on the conversation with our team on WhatsApp.

SOS Unlock, Account Recovery

Every case is assessed individually. The final decision on the account rests with the platform. When a case goes to court, the work is done by partner lawyers under a separate agreement, with no promise of a result.
