Indian Businesses Deserve Better Support from Meta

Thousands of Indian businesses depend on Meta to reach customers. When advertising accounts or business assets are wrongly restricted, companies lose revenue, employees are affected, and there is often no effective way to reach a human for support. Help us quantify the impact and petition for better representation in India.

Where this goes

This petition will be delivered to Rajeev Chandrasekhar

Vikram Pai, Co-founder and CEO of ReferRush, has established direct contact with Rajeev Chandrasekhar regarding the Meta account restrictions and support failures affecting Indian businesses.

This petition turns that contact into a formal, evidence-backed submission. Verified business signatures and aggregate economic impact data will be delivered together so the request represents measurable harm—not isolated complaints.

Revenue from Meta platformsOther channels

On average, participating businesses report that 40% of their revenue depends on Meta platforms.

Why this matters

Revenue stops overnight

Many businesses depend heavily on Meta for customer acquisition. A single restriction can halt sales without warning.

Limited human support

Businesses often struggle to reach a qualified human reviewer when accounts are restricted, leaving them stuck in automated loops.

Jobs are impacted

Every disabled account affects founders, employees, creators, agencies, and customers who rely on these businesses.
