Request help restoring your account.

For detailed instructions on how to deactivate your account, please read this article. Still need help? Please choose one of the below:

• Deactivation is not supported on mobile devices. You'll need to sign in on the web, and deactivate from your account settings. Instructions for deactivation can be found here.

• It’s been less than 30 days since I deactivated.

  • Deactivating your account does not free up the username or email address for use on another account. If you'd like to use a username or email address on a new account, you need to change both the username and the email address in that account to something else prior to deactivation.

  • The username and email address associated with your deactivated account will be free for use 30 days from the date of deactivation. Or, you can reactivate your account so that you may change the username and email address to something else, which will free them up for use on your new account.

• It’s been more than 30 days since I deactivated.

  • Please fill out the form below.

• This is a personal account.

  • Sorry, we can’t help you. We require verification of either the email address and/or mobile number tied to the account in order to deactivate it on your behalf. If you feel your account has been hacked or compromised, please visit this form.

• This is a company account.

  • Please fill out the form below.

• In cases where you suspect that your account may have been compromised, please change your password before deactivating the account to prevent unauthorized parties from logging in and reactivating it. You can change your password at https://twitter.com/settings/password.

• If you no longer remember your password, you can request a password reset email at https://twitter.com/account/begin_password_reset. Be sure to pick a strong, unique password you haven't used before.

• You can check to verify that your account has been deactivated by visiting your profile URL. E.g. https://twitter.com/#!/Support

• If you're deactivated, you'll see "Sorry that page doesn't exist!"

• Did that work?

• Yes! Thank you.

  • Great!

• No, it's still reactivating without my permission.

  • Please fill out the form below.

• Although Twitter changes settings immediately, Google and other search engines may show cached results when a search is entered. Cached results may contain old information. Until Google updates the cache with new information and indexes current statuses, Google may display the old information in their search index. Any links to removed content that appear in a Google search thus lead to Twitter's truth-telling error page: "That page doesn't exist!"

• Google will eventually index updated Twitter information. If you would like it done sooner, this help page has additional information on how to contact Google with your request.

• As we do not control Google's content, we are unable to remove or affect content on their search results or other pages.
