Hi, there’s this situation i currently have with discord support, that they refuse to delete my phone number from my account. Basically every time i try to manually remove it, my account gets locked up until i add another phone number in order to continue accessing the service, “for security reasons” with no option for email verification (of course).

I contacted the support team asking for clarifications and if they could remove the phone number and, in short, they said that they couldn’t do that since my account was flagged somehow, and that they won’t remove the phone verification…

(their email)

Now, what are your opinions about this? Should i use a free voip number site in order to replace my real phone number with the fake one? My concern is that i don’t know who could own that number so i don’t know if it’s safe to trust it, and i’m not willing to spend any money for this

    you just have to manage to not let your account flagged, but when that happens (and it will) then it’s either voip number or your real phone number

      That seems to be very easy. I’ve been using it for over half a decade, am a member on dozens of very different servers, interacted with hundreds of people, wrote tens of thousands of messages - I actually checked all those numbers - and participated in discussions about all kinds of topics. My assumption is that the threshold for this sort of flag is set really high. Either that or it’s different based on where you live, maybe based on laws or politics or such.
