I just came back to facebook after leaving a long time ago now they're doing the same to me. I don't have a cellphone and I'm not giving my id to a stupid social media site. It's ridiculus!!! I suggest you go to facebook, help, and submit feedback. They're super hard to get ahold of though.

They do this because one of your friends (or enemies) reported you as a fake account. You need to prove your identity either with a phone number or photo ID or they will take down your profile
Do you have a school ID with your picture on it? Just say that you don't have a phone, license or passport but you have a school ID (or library card, gym membership, etc) that has your name and photo on it

Same thing happened to me, but I gave 'em my ID. Everyone has different answers as to how long it'll take for Facebook to get back to me, though. How long does it really take - from someone who this has happened to?

Phone verification is the solution for it.
