Originally posted by NotAllThere View PostOn FB, my account is set up in a name that isn't my legal name, but is well known to friends and colleagues.

At that point FB decided that they'd lock the account in 7 days if I don't prove I'm known by the name on my account.
Not that I use the account much, but it's a minor irritation. Especially as the T&C don't say "real name" but "name you are known by".
Anyway, just thought I'd warn others who might not be using their legal name.
I was a bit p*****d of with it at the time as it was useful to keep in touch with old mates. Don't really care now TBH. I refuse to use my real name on the internet.
Don't let it bug you too much - there's some right sad s out there.Do what thou wiltComment

This happened to me. I made the mistake of making a comment that criticised a prospective Labour MP which resulted in my FB being assaulted by left-wing attack dogs. Proving my name was a royal pain, as my account name was similar in style to John 'Johno' Smith. In the end FB accepted John Johno Smith but insisted that the single quotes got removed.
