This is not a chat, it is a user-to-user technical support forum. All questions here are answered by volunteer users. You will get an answer when another user thinks they might be able to help you. Additionally, you didn’t start with a new post; you tagged on to a 3 year old thread with 51 pages, that contains 750 posts before your posts. It is only by luck that I saw your post.
It isn’t clear whether you have a disabled phone or whether you have a disabled account, or both. So here are all of the possible answers:
If your phone is disabled See this Apple support link→If you forgot the passcode on your iPhone, or your iPhone is disabled - Apple Support
Or watch this companion video ⬇️
If it is your Apple ID that is disabled, click the link below that most closely matches the disabled message:
- If you see a message that says 'Your account has been disabled in the App Store and iTunes' - Apple Support
- If your Apple ID is locked or disabled - Apple Support

The link in the Apple recommended post on the first page has the directions. You have to restore it in iTunes. You then can recover your data using your iTunes or iCloud backup.
