You have lost your password from your page "VKontakte", "Facebook" or another social network, or you have decided to log into your account from another device and cannot remember these cherished numbers. Logically click on the link "Forgot your password?" and try to restore it through the linked phone number or email address. During the last manipulation, a message pops up in front of you: "The limit on the number of requests per day has been exceeded." After that, your attempts to recover the password are in vain - only this ill-fated warning appears before your eyes. What to do in this case?
Why is this happening?
The "Daily request limit exceeded" error is not always an indication of a technical failure on the social network servers (although part of the unsuccessful torment with password recovery occurs precisely because of this). First of all, it is the protection of your page from hacking. This warning should appear when you have submitted a request to reset your password several times within 24 hours.
The system "thinks" that someone else is trying to guess the password to your page in this way, which is why it provides only a limited number of attempts to restore the access code to the page in one day. So, you see, the attacker has almost no chance to randomly enter the correct password for your account.
"Day Request Limit Exceeded": Simple Solution
If you actually used the services of the "Forgot your password?" link more than once a day, then you have only one way out: to restore the access code only the next day, after a day has passed. And it is desirable to do it the first time - so as not to wait another day. Or not to lose the opportunity to recover your password at all through a phone number or email.
But what if the message on Facebook, VK "Exceeded the limit of the number of requests per day" appeared on the first or second attempt to restore access?
If you logged in from a PC, laptop
In the event that you are sure that the warning is a site system error, you can do the following:
- Contact the "user" support team - this is the "Help" link.
- Try using another device to restore access - computer, tablet, laptop, phone.
- Log in from a different browser, such as Yandex or Chrome.
- Check your device for viruses. If they are found, clean the computer, and then againtry to recover the password for your page.
If you logged in from a smartphone, tablet
When the message "Daily request limit exceeded" appears on the screen of your tablet or smartphone, try this:
- Login to your account to restore access from another smartphone or other device.
- Try to restore access from a mobile browser or the official social network application.
- Smartphone or tablet can also overcome viruses and malware. Download an antivirus app, clean your phone of threats, and then go back to trying to recover your password.
- If you are recovering your passcode from your device's browser, please switch from mobile to full page and try again.
- If all methods fail, contact technical support using the "Help" link.
Thus, as practice shows, the warning "Exceeded the limit of the number of requests per day" is more typical for devices such as smartphones and tablets. In particular, when trying to restore access through the application or the mobile browser version of the site. The problem in most cases is solved by accessing your page through another device or through password recovery on the full version of the resource.
