Leave your phone number or email cancel. How to untie a number from a page in VK

The Vkontakte network is developing rapidly, covering more and more countries and people. Tens of millions of people are registered in it. In connection with such a huge number of participants, the question of security arises - how to save your personal data? How to make your photos and messages inaccessible to strangers? How to protect the page from spammers?

A function such as "link a phone number to your VKontakte page" can help with this.

How to link a number to a page

You must first go to the "Settings" section. In the "General" tab at the bottom of the page, find the line "link a phone number" and enter your number in it, which you will use for this page. After that, you will receive a code in the form of SMS to the phone you specified. Enter the code in a special line in VKontakte. The number is attached!

However, it happens that in order to perform some options on the network, you need to enter the phone number previously linked to the page. But what if you accidentally forgot it or you have several pages and you don’t remember where which number was tied? That is, how to find out the linked VKontakte number?

We go back to Settings, select the "General" tab. At the bottom of the page, in the "current number" line, your phone number is displayed. But it is not visible in its entirety, some numbers are replaced by asterisks. To view it in full, click the button below "change phone number".

Here, if necessary, you can change the number to another. But first, an SMS with a code will come to the current number, you must enter it to confirm and your number will be changed.

If you want to restore your page, and the number to which it is linked has been lost, then you need to contact the support service using the link

Good day to everyone, today we will solve another problem that may arise while using the Vkontakte social network. It's about unbinding the number from the page.

The fact is that in order to increase security, a separate phone number is attached to each VK account. You, in turn, may want to untie specific page from a specific no. How can this be done technically? Previously, there was such an opportunity, you simply indicated your email address in the field and detached the phone number from the page. I am writing this article in the summer of 2016, and there is no such possibility. However, it is possible to change the phone. So what to do?

My job is to explain to you how the number on the page changes, and give some tips on how you can use this to unbind it. Your job is to think a little and put all this theory into practice. And so, let's go...

To untie the number from the page, you will need another SIM card, so it's better to get it right away. You can buy it and use it to register on all sorts of services, it's very convenient not to shine your main phone.
We buy a SIM card and change our main phone number to a newly acquired one.

How to change the phone number Vkontakte

We go to our page and click on the link "My Settings" in the left menu:

We immediately open the "General" tab:

We find the section "Your phone number" and click on the button "Change ...":

Enter a new one and click on the "Get code" button:

You will be informed that the request for a change of number has been accepted and you will have to wait 14 days. We are also told that if we have access to our old phone, then the process can speed up. It's a shame not to take advantage of this offer. Click on the appropriate link:

After we will receive an SMS to our old phone. Confirm the replacement and you will see a notification on the screen that the number has been changed:

Everything seems to be nothing complicated.

How to untie a deleted page number

The fact is that if you delete the page, the phone number will still remain in the database and it will be linked to it. To remove it from the database, nothing new remains for us, how to create another VKontakte page and indicate the same number during registration. It will unlink from the deleted page and link to the newly created one. After that, change it to a new one from the newly purchased SIM card.

And now in more detail on the points.

1. Your number is 111. This is your main number. It's attached to the page you deleted. Buy a new SIM card with number 222.

2. Register a new page to your old number 111. During registration, you receive a message that this one was linked to another page. We click on the “click here” link and the number is unlinked from the old remote page and linked to the new one you just created.

Now you have a new Vkontakte page with the old number 111

3. Go to the settings of the new page and change your old number 111 to the new 222. How to do this, we already know from the first paragraph of this article. That's it, now your old phone is not linked to any of the pages. You only have a fake page registered to a number that you purchased specifically to register on such services.

In order to register on VKontakte, you had to enter your phone number (for those who registered more than two years ago - an email number, as an alternative) and a password for your profile. Regardless of how long ago you were registered, the question may arise, how to delete vkontakte number. Here are the main reasons:

You changed your number mobile phone, the old one will now be inactive.
Do you want to unlink a number from one page in social network and bind it to another.
The mobile phone number has already been used for some other page.

How to delete a VKontakte number by changing it to e— mail

If you need to delete the linked VKontakte number, do the following:

Create email for the page.
Go to the tab "My Settings" - "Alerts" on this page. Choose to have alerts sent to your email instead of your phone. To do this, simply enter your e-mail in the required line, and leave the line with the phone blank.
In a minute, a confirmation email will be sent to your email. Open it and click on the link confirming the changes. Done instead of telephone number an email address is linked to your VKontakte page.

How to remove a VKontakte number from one page and link it to another

Do the same as in previous paragraph(attach an e-mail instead of a phone number).

Now go to the second page (to which you want to link the number). If no number is attached to this page at all, follow the link.

If you already have an associated number, but you want to change it, you will need another link -

In any case, enter desired number, and then the codes sent via SMS.

Enter the number you wish to delete.
Get a code on your phone. It will need to be entered in a special field on the page (in the case when the code has not arrived, click the "Request again" link).
Ready. You can use the number for another page.

Do I need to delete the number before deleting the page?

Yes. Even after deleting the profile, information about you will be stored in the site databases for another 7 months, so the number must be unlinked in advance.

Hello, dear readers of the blog site. tied to a mobile phone number, not to mailbox as it was before.

On the one hand, this increases security (it is more difficult to hack and steal an account) and simplifies the procedure for restoring access, but on the other hand, it makes life somewhat more difficult for those who do not want to burn their mobile phone number () or want or several on different accounts.

In this regard, the question often arises - is it possible to untie the number from the pages in Contact? In principle, it is possible, although it is not entirely obvious. By the way, you may need this in different occasions. For example, you could buy a new SIM card and at the same time, for some reason, throw away the old one (to which access to the Contact was attached), or simply lose it. Also, you may have two VK accounts and you decide to link this particular number to your other account.

You may also need to unlink the number in the case that I already wrote about, when it would be desirable to unlink the number before deleting the account, otherwise it will still remain in the database of this social network.

How can I untie a page in VK from your phone number?

Starting from 2013, it will not be possible to simply untie a phone number from your account in Vkontakte (previously you could do this by specifying Email as the main type of binding). That is, now it will not be possible to simply delete your phone number and not offer a new one in return. This is understandable - VK has switched to a high security standard and the entrance to the site is tied primarily to the mobile phone.

However, you can easily change this same number to another, thereby unlink your page from the old number, to which, for example, you could lose access for one reason or another. In general, for starters, it would be nice to understand a few rules that moderators and administrators of Vkontakte adhere to:

You can use one mobile phone number. Thus, the system is trying to fight spam pages, which many people use to cheat and earn money, although all this is served under sauce, which, they say, is more convenient for users. So create new page the same number will no longer work.
However, if you already there is another account in this social network(for example, registered before 2013, when it was enough to link another Email address), then you can link to it the phone number that is already used on your other account in VK. Thus, from the first page you need number, of course, unsubscribe. True, then when you enter such an account (with an unattached number), you will be strongly advised to bind some phone to it in such a way that they already torture you, but this is the tenth thing.

From the above rules and conditions for working with Vkontakte, at the moment we can draw several conclusions:

It will be possible without any problem unlink the number to which you have lost access from the page(lost a SIM card, threw it away, gave it to someone, etc.). The official way (if access to the old number is not possible) will take you two weeks, and the unofficial (though somewhat risky) one day.
If you have another account in VK, then the number can be transferred to it, thereby untying it from the desired page (there may be a lot of reasons). Here, again, certain delays are possible at different steps, but in principle everything is feasible (I myself have done this more than once).
The third option in the series - I didn't tell you that. Spammers still bypass Contact's restrictions on the number of pages registered per person and use various services, which can be called as a "temporary mobile number" (you will get access to SMS messages coming to it).
The number obtained there can be used to implement the first option of decoupling (official), thereby deleting the real number and replacing it with a fake one. Of course, this will significantly complicate or make it impossible to restore access to the page, but in some cases it may be necessary to untie the number just before deleting the page, so as not to leave unnecessary tails later.

Where does the phone number associated with the page in VK change?

The unbinding process itself is implemented on the page " My settings" in the area of "Your phone number". To do this, it will be enough to click on the "Change phone number" button and enter it in the window that opens.

True, I recently transferred this number from this account to that one (unlinked), so I am offered to wait a bit (about two weeks):

In your case, this message most likely will not be. Usually everything goes fine and you are told that by default the process of changing the number will take a couple of weeks:

The process can speed up by official means, if you have access to the old number (just use the appropriate link, and after going through the steps of the wizard you will get the result much faster). The second way to speed up is to go through a rather dreary wizard, similar to the one you need to go through when restoring access to your page if it is lost:

How can I speed up the unlinking of a number by 14 times (no guarantees)

However, there is also an unofficial way to speed up the unlinking of a number from your Vkontakte page (up to one day), but, firstly, it may no longer work (it definitely worked six months ago), and secondly, it is associated with certain risks (for example, your page may not just be “frozen”, and banned for a long period of time).

Therefore, everything that you will do is only at your own peril and risk (I wash my hands, as they say).

The essence of the method is to use the Contact bug (logical inconsistency), which allows you to change the number associated with it when the page is frozen and immediately unfreeze it. In this case, the old number will get rid of from the page not a couple of weeks, but just one day. An absurdity that has not yet been fixed (corrected). Although it is possible that at the time of your reading this post, this cartoon will not work.

To start, we will need make our VK page “freeze”. It's easy to do. There is an exchange of likes, the mention of which on the VKontakte website is taboo and entails the immediate freezing of the page where this link appeared (thus, they are trying to combat the spread of spam and spammy methods of promoting pages on their social network). Just leave this link on your wall:

Literally a minute after clicking on the "Submit" button, you can refresh it in the browser, after which you will see a message about a temporary freeze:

But we needed all this circus only in order to use the button at the very bottom of this window "Specify another number". Actually, it is entered in the adjacent field after clicking on this button, and after you click on the “get the code” button below, you will see a message stating that another phone number is already linked to this page and the question of whether you really you want to destroy this whole idyll by untying your mobile phone:

Next, enter the confirmation code sent to new number. After that, you will be asked for more New Password come up with an account. All. Now all you have to do is press the button "Unfreeze the Stranger":

On the next page, you will be asked to take a short sanity test. But this is not the main thing, but what will be written at the very top:

Those. with such a feint with ears (freezing - defrosting the page) we have achieved speeding up the unbinding of the old and binding the new number by fourteen times, which is very important and someone can be very useful. But I repeat - the method is not one hundred percent working, so everything you do remains on your conscience, and bribes are smooth from me ...

Good luck to you! See you soon on the blog pages site

1. Do not link the number to a new page, but restore the old one

If you already have a page registered to this number, and you are trying to register a new one, then it is better to restore the old one. The fact is that one issue can only have one page. If you register a second one, then the number will be unlinked from the first page, and you will not be able to go to it. And it will be difficult (or even impossible) to restore access. This is serious, think about it! Do you want to restore old page number right now? Click here: Password recovery, VKontakte access.

And if you deleted the old page, then within a certain time it can be restored. And you don't need to register a new one. See: How to recover a deleted VKontakte page.

2. Use this number anyway (via the full version of the site!)

If no page is currently attached to the number (when restoring, it writes: No user found with this phone number), but VK does not give registration, which means that this number recently had a page, and it has not yet been released. VKontakte allows you to link your phone to different pages only a few times. When you bind to a new one, it unties from the old one! Perhaps you have the last binding left.

If the number is exactly yours and you will keep it, you can remove the error and register the page. Only this should be done not from the phone, but through full version website from a computer or tablet. It is important that it is through the full, and not through the mobile and not through the application. If you try to register from your phone, you will only receive an error message and a prompt to enter another number.

To enter the full version of VK, click here: How to enter the full version of VKontakte. How to use the number, read on.

Attention: if another page is linked to the number and you still need it, do not link the number to the page on which you are currently sitting or which you are registering! You risk losing the previous page. Here is the situation you will find yourself in: Two pages for one VKontakte number. Use another number.

Example: how to remove an error and use a number

So, you need to register a page for a number that was recently linked. Try to do this in the full version of the VK site. Go to the full version, preferably on a computer, laptop, and start registering. When you enter the number, you will receive a warning: This number has recently been used. The number has recently been linked to another VKontakte page. If this is your number and you would like to use it, please click here. This is a warning, not an error.

At this point click on the words "click here". A final warning window will appear: Each phone number can be linked to VKontakte pages a limited number of times. For the number left so much bindings(or last binding). Make sure you link the number to your own page. Now it will be possible to link it to another page very soon.

Here is an example of a warning - people read it poorly and understand it even worse:

Many people think that it is possible to create several pages and link the same number to all. But no, it works differently. One number, one page. The number will be unlinked from the previous page.

Read carefully, all this applies to you personally and to your number. Are you sure you want to register a new page for this number and lose access to the old one? Then press the button "Yes, use the number"— and then you can proceed with the registration. If you change your mind, click "No, I'll use another number."

In case the number belonged to someone else (this often happens) and someone else's page was created on it, see here what to do to untie the number from it: Someone else's VKontakte page and my phone number. The problem is solved in the same way when the number you bought is blocked - What to do if the phone number is blocked by VKontakte.

3. Wait

Perhaps after some time this number can be used again. Wait two weeks and try again. If it does not work out, then maybe it will be possible to use the number after one or two months. In the meantime, you can link the page to another number of yours (of course, if another page that you need is not linked to it).
