How to restore a Discord account after a ban

Is it possible to recover a Discord account if the service banned you, or if you forgot your login details, or accidentally deleted the profile? We explain how to restore Discord.

Losing credentials, accidentally deleting a profile, or even having an account intentionally blocked by the messenger itself is an unpleasant situation that deprives a user of a popular service and the ability to communicate with others. In such a situation, it is important to restore Discord as quickly as possible. But this cannot be done if you don’t know how. Let’s try to make solving this problem easier. Below is material where we have compiled all the main reasons for account blocking and described ways to resolve them.

By the way, the first method that comes to mind to regain access to the messenger is registering a new account. This cannot be done without linking a phone number, but it’s not necessary to buy a new SIM card. It’s enough to use virtual numbers from the SMSBOWER service, which allow you to receive SMS with a guarantee, are inexpensive, and maintain complete client anonymity.

How to Restore a Deleted Discord Account?

A common situation arises when carelessness or impulsiveness causes all the problems. Can a deleted Discord account be restored? Yes, follow these steps (provided it hasn’t been more than two weeks since deletion):

Within these 14 days, simply log in to your account using your login and password. This will automatically cancel the deletion process;
If more than 14 days have passed, restoring the account through standard means will not be possible, and you’ll need to create a new account (e.g., using a virtual number).

Using bots or third-party applications not approved by Discord;
Complaints from other users about your behavior.

Here’s how to unlock your Discord account:

Go to the Discord Help Center website;
At the bottom of the page, select "Submit a Request";
Fill out the form, providing all possible information about your account and describing the situation in detail;
If your account was blocked by mistake, explain this in the form and provide any evidence of your innocence;
Wait for a response from support. This usually takes a few days.
