Greetings, dear friends!
We are in touch with you again and, of course, with new useful information.
Social networks are a useful tool that we deal with almost constantly. Not long ago the topic was discussed. It would be good if deleting the account was a conscious and informed decision. However, how to restore a VKontakte page if the data is lost or the account is blocked?
Or have you changed your mind and now you just need to restore your profile after deletion? Is it possible to do this after the 7 months allotted to VKontakte for reflection?
About all this in today's article.
When might you need to restore your account?
Several standard cases and their variations are common:
- You deleted your profile and want to get it back.
- Your account has been blocked and needs to be restored.
- Lost password.
- Forgotten login.
- You no longer have access to your number or email.
We will analyze each case step by step.
Restoring a deleted page
If the deletion occurred on your own initiative and you remember all the data, getting your account back is very simple. How long it takes to restore a deleted page is determined by the site’s policy, which states that this is possible within 210 days (7 months).
Your actions:
We go to the main address of the site - vk.com.
Enter your login and password into the standard fields - the ones you entered the last time you logged in.
You will see a standard image of a dog on your avatar and a signature that the profile has been deleted. Having studied the information up to what point you can return it, click on the “Restore” button on the left side, as shown below in the screenshot.
The account will be restored exactly in the same form in which you left it - with all photos, videos, music and even dialogues.
By the way, if you are not sure that you want to completely lose the opportunity to revive your personal VK account, then you can extend the period.
You are given exactly 210 days. You record this time and, closer to the date, go to your page, restore it and delete it again. Ready! You have a new 210 days. This is no less than most of the year. The main thing is not to forget to log in on time and update the deadline.
Unblocking your account
Your page may be hacked or frozen for violating the rules of the site, which in the eyes of VK is often regarded in exactly the same way, because no one can say who exactly is acting in each specific profile, the owner, an outsider or a virus program.
The site system is designed in such a way that if you receive a ban, for example, for sending spam or insults, then you can return access to the frozen page almost immediately.
To do this, you will need a number that you will need to enter in the field provided. Everything is intuitive and simple - you receive a code that you send to the site and go to the form where you need to come up with a new password.
It should not be repeated with any of those that you have placed before. Otherwise, you simply won’t succeed, since the system will declare that this password has already been compromised.
After creating a new unique password, you are redirected to the login address, where you need to log in with new data. Come in and receive your profile safe and sound.
An important point - if you suddenly realize that you do not have access to the linked number, then you can use another one that is not yet linked to any profile. But this may take longer and you will need to answer additional questions. In this case, you will need to log in with a new login (phone number).
Depending on the type of ban and its severity, reassigning the number may take several days. The system will provide relevant information in each specific case.
If you are blocked again, the ban period will be longer (one day, three days, a week, two weeks, and so on). With each new blocking, the terms increase until a lifetime block follows. In this case, any actions will be useless, and the linked number will be blacklisted. That is, you will not be able to register using it again.
What to do if you forgot your password?
If you just need to recover your password, then follow the link - https://vk.com/restore.
Or click on “Forgot your password?” under the data entry field on the site.
You are prompted to enter a phone number or email. Enter the data. The verification is quite simple; the next step asks you to enter the last name specified in your profile.
If this is our profile, we confirm - “Yes, this is the right page.”
At the next step, the system offers to send a password to the linked phone. At the same time, if an email was entered as a login and not a number, this does not matter. You can receive the code via email through an extended application, which will be discussed below.
We enter the received code and get into a form where you are asked to come up with a new password. We come with new data.
If you forgot your login
As a rule, an e-mail or a number is used as a login (the system reacts the same to entering “+79...” and to entering “89...”) That is, both options are working.
If you don’t remember your login, then also under the input field on the main site click on the link “Forgot your password?” or enter in the address bar – https://vk.com/restore.
This is the address of the recovery form. The system asks to enter a phone number or email, but we don’t remember them. Therefore, we find the entry below “If you do not remember the data or do not have access to the phone, click here” and follow the link.
If it is difficult or impossible to remember, the system offers to find you in a people search. To do this, click on the link below the input field.
You can use VK search even if you are not logged in. We search for ourselves by first and last name, if necessary, connect filters on the right by gender, age, country and city.
When found, click on “This is my page.”
The site directs us to a complete access recovery form, where you will need to enter a new phone number to which a code will be sent, your old email and password. It is not suggested to enter the old number, because if you remembered it and could use it, then, of course, you would have already logged in.
Using this method, you can link a new phone and revive your account via a code from an SMS or via your old email.
Thus, the actions in case of loss of the login essentially coincide with the loss of access to the old linked number. Because now, to register a page on the site, an e-mail is not required, but you can’t do without a number.
Lost access to linked phone and email
The actions in this case are identical to the instructions described above with the loss of the login, which, in fact, is the phone number and email.
If you can't use by old post, click the appropriate button, as in the screenshot below - “I don’t have access to mail.”
The system will immediately offer to send a code to the new specified phone. It is impossible to relink a new email at this stage and restore the account from it.
Recover from phone
From your phone you can restore both a previously deleted account and a blocked one. Functional official application VK now allows you to go through all the steps to return lost pages if you have forgotten your login or want to do this using a new phone number.
Is it possible to restore an old page?
To return an old page that was deleted more than 210 days ago, you need to write directly to VKontakte support. It is better to do this through the “Help” tab, so you will know that your request was seen and taken into account.
You can also contact technical support via e-mail: [email protected].
The format of the appeal and presentation of the problem should be as simple as possible and contain specific facts, how and when they were registered, what data you remember and whether you have the opportunity to use it now for recovery.
After you have been listened to, all that remains is to wait for feedback from the VK administration. Most likely, you will need to fill out a standard recovery form and attach a scan of your passport, as well as take a photo in front of the application to confirm that it is really you.
At the same time, if your deleted account had a lot of personal photos with a clearly visible face, the chances of recovery will be very high.
Conclusion
As you can see, resuscitation of deleted and blocked accounts can occur in different ways. My advice, as always, is simple and practical - use a link to mail (some people neglect it, as we see - in vain, through it you can regain access at an early stage) and store all the data in one safe place.
This can be an electronic key keeper, which is with you in the form of an application on your smartphone and is opened using your password, or a paper medium.
You get the idea – cleanliness and order of important data. Because VK support has made recovery a fairly simple procedure if you remember your data.
With this I say goodbye, good luck and organized order both in your social networks and in life in general!
It is not uncommon for a situation to happen when you forget your credentials, lose them, or do not have access to them. What to do in this case?
VKontakte has a mechanism that allows you to recover your login and password. This function will help you restore access to your page. Now we will analyze this process in detail.
What the form for entering credentials looks like. Let's learn to use it
Let's briefly refresh our memory about the authorization mechanism.
https://vk.com
On home page There is a login form. Below are the options depending on the device you're working from.
As you can see, no matter what device you use, the login form will remain the same. There are only two fields in it:
- Email or phone is the field for entering your login.
- Password - everything is clear here.
But let's return to our problem - we cannot indicate the data because we forgot or lost it.
What should I do if I forgot my login (username)?
With this information, things are somewhat simpler. If you carefully read the information above, you probably already noticed a hint. As a VKontakte login, you can use your mobile phone number or your Email address. This makes our task much easier.
As a rule, an ordinary person has one, or at most two mobile phone numbers. It's the same with mail. And when he registers a VKontakte page, in 99% of cases, he indicates exactly this data.
Thus, we can conclude that most often your login is phone or email.
Once you know the password, it is easy to check. Just try to log in by entering these details one by one.
If you succeed in logging in, it means you succeeded in completing the task. If not, then most likely there is a problem with the password. It's more difficult here. But it can also be restored.
How to recover a forgotten or lost password from a VKontakte page
There are a number of measures here. Let's look at each of them.
Using the recovery tool
If you have previously worked with the Internet, you have probably noticed that on any site that has an authorization function, a recovery tool is available forgotten password. The feature is very common - users quite often lose their credentials. And they need help to remember (or reset) them. The social network Vkontakte is no exception. This mechanism is also available here.
For convenience, we will analyze the process in the full version of the site, when working from a computer. Through the phone and the application it will be similar.
On the next page we will be asked to provide your phone number or email. Enter the data in the form and click on the "Next" button.
The system may ask you to confirm that you are not a robot. Check the box in the window that appears.
note. Many users like to indicate information that is not their real one. And if they lose their login and password, they cannot restore access. We need to remember this moment. If you do not provide your personal information, there is a possibility that restoring access to the page will not be available and you will lose the ability to use it.
Even sending documents to the VKontakte administration will not help - if the full name in your passport and on the page differs, your access will not be restored.
Let's continue. If you provided the correct information, then your page should be determined. Your name and avatar will be indicated. And the question is “Is this the page to which you need to restore access?” If yours is found, click on the button “Yes, this is the page we need.”
After this, the system will send us an SMS with a code - this is necessary to confirm the operation. We check that our phone number is indicated in the form and click on the “Get code” button.
Enter the received code in the form field and click "Send code".
You will be taken to a form for entering new data. Enter the password you want to use. And his confirmation. When filled out, click the "Submit" button.
The data will be changed - you can use it to enter the page.
Submitting a request to restore access
There are no particular problems when you have access to your phone. As you can see from the instructions above, it is enough to receive a code via SMS and reset the password.
The problem will be if you do not have access to the phone number that was linked to the page. But even in this case, there is a chance to restore your credentials.
We return again to the first step of the form, where you had to enter your email or phone number. This time we need a link “Click here”, in the block “If you do not remember the data or do not have access to the phone”.
When you have received the required data, paste it into the form and click "Next".
If everything was done correctly, you will be taken to the application completion page. Your profile will be listed here. The support service will require you to provide as much data as possible - this is necessary to confirm that you are the owner of the page. Fill in the following fields:
- Available phone number;
- Old phone number;
- Old email page;
- Old Password.
When the form is completed, click on the "Submit Application" button.
Submitting an application to restore access to the page - fill in as much data as possible After this, you need to wait for the specialists’ response. If your request is satisfied, you will be sent instructions with new login information. If not, unfortunately, the page will be lost.
