If you’re a Twitter user now known as X, you may have received a message from the social network informing you that your account has been suspended for not meeting the minimum age of 13. This can happen for a number of reasons, such as entering the wrong date of birth when registering, changing your date of birth recently, or being reported by other users.
Whatever the case may be, don’t worry, there is a way to get your age-locked Twitter account back. In this article, we will explain the steps you should follow to solve this problem and enjoy the platform again.
Your account has been suspended: What should I do if Twitter has suspended my account because I’m under 13?
The first thing you need to do is find the link that Twitter sent you via email or SMS when it closed your account. If you are a minor there, they will ask you to prove your identity with a copy of your ID or your legal guardian. You must ensure that the document is legible and matches your account details.
Once you submit your document, Twitter will review it and send you a response within a few days. If everything is correct, you will be notified that your account has been activated and you can access it normally. However, you may have to agree to certain conditions, such as deleting some old tweets or restricting certain features until they are 13 years old.
How to Recover Age Banned Twitter Account (Step by Step)
If you don’t get a response from Twitter or the link they sent you doesn’t work, you can perform the recovery yourself by following the steps below.
Request your age-banned Twitter account back through this form. There, enter your username, full name (same as it appears on the ID document) and attach a photo of your ID document, driver’s license or passport. Twitter says you only see this document to verify your identity and then delete it, so in theory there’s nothing to worry about. Now you have to protect Twitter to verify that you are over 13 years old when you create the account. When you do, it will send you an email and if everything is in order, you can recover your account.
It is important to follow these steps and not try to create another account with the same email address or phone number as this may hinder the recovery process and cause you to be permanently banned from Twitter.
We hope this article is useful for you and you can get your age locked Twitter account back as soon as possible. Remember to abide by the rules of the forum and be responsible for your use of social media.
