If you’re worried about your Twitter account being hacked, one of the best things you can do is change your password regularly. But what if you don’t have access to your email or phone number anymore and can’t receive the verification codes needed to change your Twitter password?
Luckily, there’s a way to change your Twitter password without email or phone number. Here’s how:
How to Reset Your Twitter Password without Your Email Address
If you no longer have access to the email address associated with your official Twitter account, you can still reset your Twitter password. Here’s how you can reset Twitter password without email address:
-
Step 01
Go to twitter.com or on your Twitter app and click on the “Forgot password” link.
-
Step 02
Enter your Twitter account username or email address and click on the “Search” button. If the account you’re trying to access is for a business, use the company’s official business email address to make the procedure go more smoothly.
-
Step 03
Choose ” I Don’t Have Access to This Information” on the next page.
-
Step 04
If the username you entered matches a valid Twitter account, you’ll be given the option to contact Twitter for assistance. You will be redirected to the “Account Access” page. Twitter will then ask you, “How can we help you with your account?”
-
Step 05
Choose the “I need to regain access to my account” option and “I forgot my password.” Twitter will then ask you to enter your phone number or email address which you used to open your Twitter account.
-
Step 06
Since you don’t have access to your email address, you need to fill out the form on the “Help Center” page. Enter your Twitter account username and new email address so that Twitter may contact you, as well as a description of the situation. Then press the “Submit” button.
It can take up to 24 to 48 hours for the Twitter support team to send you a password reset link with complete instructions. Once you receive the email, click on the link and enter your new password. That’s it! You have successfully changed your Twitter password without the email address using the standard account recovery process.
Keep in mind that this process can take a while, so be patient. In the meantime, you can try other methods to reset your Twitter password.
How to Reset Your Twitter Password without Your Phone Number
The process of resetting your Twitter password without your phone number is quite similar to resetting your password without your email address. Here’s how you can reset your Twitter password without your phone number:
-
Step 01
Go to twitter.com and enter your login details. Click on the “Forgot password” link.
-
Step 02
Enter your Twitter account user name, valid email address, or phone number and click on the “Search” button.
-
Step 03
Choose ” I Don’t Have Access to This Information” on the next page.
-
Step 04
You will be redirected to the “Account Access” page. Twitter will ask you, “How can we help you with your account?” If your Twitter account represents a company or a registered business, you are fortunate. You can describe your circumstances in a reply to the auto-response email. However, keep in mind that you’ll only be able to do so if the Twitter account is a business account and you’re recovering it with a corporate email address.
-
step 05
Choose the “I need to regain access to my account” option and “I forgot my password.” Twitter will then ask you to enter your phone number or email address which you used to open your Twitter account. Select “Phone Number.”
-
Step 06
Since you don’t have access to your phone number, you need to fill out the form on the “Help Center” page. Enter your valid username, account’s email address, your country, and enter your new phone number so Twitter can send you a confirmation code. Moreover, a small description explaining the problem you’re facing would be helpful.
-
Step 07
Enter the code on the web page.
-
Step 08
After that, you’ll be asked to create a new password.
Note: Twitter password reset via SMS is not accessible for Twitter accounts with login verification enabled. You can only change your password by sending an email. Furthermore, if you’ve used the same phone number for more than one Twitter account, you won’t be able to retrieve your Twitter account using the phone number.
