If the problem is losing the access to your account, you can fix it from the main page of the social media platform. You will need your email or phone number linked to your Instagram account.

If you have Windows 10, you might have installed the Instagram app. You can use it to reach the customer service. The directions are the same as for reporting from the website.

You can also try to request help from Instagram support by phone. This is the customer service phone number you can call:

But don’t expect a human to answer you. An IG bot will be more likely to deal with your problem first when you call.

You can also contact Instagram help center by email. You don’t need to open the website or the app. It’s useful when the problem is that you can’t open them.

Address the message to the Instagram support email to contact the customer service.

In your email to Instagram support:

• Give your profile link. 
• Describe the problem. 
• Attach a screenshot with a bug or affront. 
• OS and the device you are trying to get into your account from. 

If you described the problem properly, Instagram help support will consider the request and reply by email.

Whatever way to contact Instagram support you choose, IG customer support deals with the queries like: 

• account recovery;
• failures and bugs in mobile and desktop versions of the social media;
• ads payments problems;
• creating a business-account;
• verification;
• missing notifications;
• temporary or permanent account block;
• hacked accounts;
• violating the community guidelines;
• conflict situations between Instagram users.

You can also reach for help when you get a message like "Unable to use on your device" or "Unavailable on your device". In this case the support team will help to find out the reason and solution for the failure.

Instagram provides no information on how fast it responds. From personal and other users' experience we can conclude it takes 24-48 hours for the first answer. If the problem requires further conversation, you have to wait longer for each following message. If the email contents incomplete information, it may be ignored. And, of course, this is not about when you call Instagram support. 

Neither does Instagram please its users with the information about the time it solves the problems. But you can check the progress. Open Reports in the Support Requests section. Tap a report to see the details. Mind, Instagram mentions that not all your reports can be found there. 

The easiest way to report a problem is through the app. If you can’t launch it, contact Instagram support by email, or use the phone number. 

Use a link in bio page to keep in touch with your followers whatever problems with using Instagram you face. This is like an About Me page with lots of purposes.
