If you are having to verify for de-activation or a hacked account it could take up to 2 weeks.

Starting from the beginning, at the Facebook sign up page, there is the following

Facebook requires all users to provide their real date of birth to encourage authenticity and provide only age-appropriate access to content. You will be able to hide this information from your profile if you wish, and its use is governed by the Facebook Privacy Policy.

This takes care of the birthday issue.

For the nickname, there is the following,

Please note that Facebook account names must adhere to the following authenticity standards: Your full first and last name must be listed. Initials cannot stand in place of your full name. Nicknames can be listed if they are a variation of your first or last name, but only in the format "First Name ‘Nickname’ Lastname."

Under Facebook Terms, here is what you need to be aware of

Registration and Account Security

Facebook users provide their real names and information, and we need your help to keep it that way. Here are some commitments you make to us relating to registering and maintaining the security of your account:

  • You will not provide any false personal information on Facebook, or create an account for anyone other than yourself without permission.
  • You will not create more than one personal profile.
  • If we disable your account, you will not create another one without our permission.
  • You will keep your contact information accurate and up-to-date.

Knowing this and

  • the assumption that disabling accounts are automated but appeals are manual
  • the assumption that not entering your contact information accurately lead to this
  • the assumption there are many, many, many appeals per day

9 days to even two weeks seems reasonable. Someone I knew was banned but appealed, it took a very long while but a well worded polite email plus some patience led to a renewal. This is not going to work for everyone obviously.

I hope this is helpful to you!
