Old phone numbers

SMOZ · #1 06-17-2023

Can I re-use old phone numbers that were used on banned accounts in the past? Perhaps Egay know that many numbers get recycled.

Only unbiased answers please, not from the ChatGPT mods

I would say it is definitely worth the risk; you may not get banned but you could easily be linked to a banned account.

A new PAYG sim card is 99p so go with that.

I am overseas now, I brought some sims with me but forgot to activate them before I left. Yeah I don't know if they have wiped the number from their records or not.

Can you use the same numbers again...sure you can.

Should you...of course not. It's a simple link as I can't imagine they ever voluntarily delete old account details.

How much did those numbers cost you OP? Is the cost worth risking linking accounts via phone number...

You can always try it providing the numbers are active and not voip, let us know how you get along with it.

Ultimately it is the OP's choice...
