I have my number registered with Amazon, but they blocked my account. I once read that it could be removed from that account and recovered on another one from the same company, but that was years ago when I read that in an e-book. Is there any solution for this? :,c ---

⛔ **Do not close the account.** Amazon’s own forum: _“Closing an old account won’t free up your phone number — you need to gain access to the old account to remove the number.”_ **First, one test:** open **[Forgot password](https://www.amazon.com/gp/css/account/forgot-password/email.html)**.

A new account on a freed number can still be pulled into the old ban — reinstating the original is the stronger outcome. Every link works on any Amazon domain: swap `.com` for `.es`, `.mx`, `.in`. The nodeId stays the same.
