How to Unlock Twitter Account without Phone Number
Getting locked out of Twitter has become a common phenomenon.
With any suspicious activity, Twitter immediately resorts to locking your Twitter account and asking for the OTP sent to your phone number.
Or, Twitter may ask you to verify your phone number before logging in.
Now, there are several scenarios when you don’t use the same number or you don’t own the same number anymore.
In such a case, you need to unlock the Twitter account without a phone number.
Also, there are times when you have never added a phone number, and now, you don’t have a phone to unlock the Twitter account.
