This information is then linked to your account. You can also opt to change your username and password, but these steps are not very convenient unless you want to remain anonymous on the site. However, removing your phone number is easier than changing your username. You can also contact TikTok customer support if you are unable to unlink your phone number.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Removing_your_phone_number_is_easier_than_changing_your_username\"><\/span>Removing your phone number is easier than changing your username<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You might be wondering if it&#8217;s possible to remove your phone number from TikTok. Well, you can. You can change your username, and you can also change your phone number. You can do this through the settings of your phone. First, you must confirm that you don&#8217;t have access to your account&#8217;s phone. Once you&#8217;ve verified your old number, you can then add a new phone number.<\/p>\n<p>There are two ways to do this: by logging in with your email address or by deleting your TikTok account. You can also do this by logging in as a different user. You should be able to do this with just a few taps on your smartphone. If you&#8217;re not sure how to remove your phone number from TikTok, you can also follow the steps below.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re trying to change your username on TikTok, you can do it by deleting the old account. You can also remove your phone number by changing the settings of the app. In order to do this, go to the Manage Account page and click on &#8220;Contacts.&#8221; Here, you&#8217;ll see two options: delete the old phone number or change it.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"TikTok_takes_30_days_to_delete_your_account\"><\/span>TikTok takes 30 days to delete your account<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It takes 30 days to delete your account on TikTok. You will lose all the videos you have posted and all the money you have spent on advertising. However, you can reactivate your account after 30 days if you want. If you&#8217;ve made a mistake, you can always spend the coins you&#8217;ve earned as gifts. However, before deleting your account, you should read the tips below.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll notice that you&#8217;ve been deactivated after 30 days if you&#8217;ve forgotten to click the &#8220;Delete Account&#8221; link. This means your account is no longer accessible to other users. However, you can restore it within that timeframe. You&#8217;ll lose access to any videos and drafts you&#8217;ve made in the meantime. If you deleted your account due to any other reason, don&#8217;t worry. The 30-day grace period is long enough for you to restore it.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve created an account with your old email address, you can change it to a new one. Just make sure you answer security questions such as your sign-up date, the location you&#8217;ve been to most recently, and your old phone number. After answering these security questions, you can confirm the new email address. If you changed your email address, you can still sign up, but you will be assigned a different username.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reaching_out_to_TikTok_customer_service\"><\/span>Reaching out to TikTok customer service<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In case you&#8217;ve lost your TikTok login details, you can unlink your phone number from the website through a simple process. TikTok collects personal information about its users. This includes the length of videos viewed, what they watch, and the contents of private messages. They also collect your country, Internet address, device type, and age. All of this information helps TikTok build a profile of you, and use it to target advertisements and understand your behavior.<\/p>\n<p>However, in some cases, the automated process may cause a problem. You may want to contact TikTok customer service to unlink your phone number from TikTok. They&#8217;ll be able to help you. However, you may have to make a case to show your situation. For example, if you&#8217;re an active TikTok creator and have thousands of subscribers, they might block your videos based on your country. This can lead to a permanent ban, so you should follow these guidelines closely.<\/p>\n<p>After a successful case, Sparks reported the matter to the local sheriff&#8217;s office. After receiving the call, she removed her callout videos and stepped away from the TikTok app for a week. But Sparks returned to the app a few weeks later. She said that it is her duty to speak out about injustices and to give her platform to voices that are often marginalized. She was not the only victim of a TikTok callout. In fact, Sparks&#8217; video was viewed more than 3 million times.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7fgBP_Cv01s\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"208\" width=\"372\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Unlink Phone Number From TikTok When you first sign up for TikTok, you must provide your contact details, including a phone number.
