Why Can\u2019t I Change My Phone Number on Discord?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Sometimes, you might face challenges while changing your phone number on Discord.<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s common, and some users face this quite often.<\/span><\/p>\n

But have you ever thought about why this happens?<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re unaware of the reasons behind this issue, here are a few reasons that trigger this problem and stop you from changing your discord phone number:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Server Downtime: <\/b>If Discord is experiencing downtime, some of the features within the platform might not function properly, including the ability to change numbers on Discord.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Verification Problem: <\/b>Discord never adds phone numbers without OTP verifications. If you can\u2019t verify your phone number with OTP for any reason, your number won\u2019t be added to your profile.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Wrong Number:<\/b> If the phone number you are entering does not exist, Discord might stop you from adding that number. Double check whether the phone number you are entering is 100% correct.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Conclusion<\/b><\/h2>\n

    It\u2019s super easy to remove a phone number from Discord.<\/span><\/p>\n

    All you have to do is follow some simple steps, and your phone number will instantly disappear from the platform.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Additionally, instead of removing your number altogether, you can even change it by following the same steps.<\/span><\/p>\n

    If you have turned on two-factor authentication, it\u2019s better to have at least one phone number linked to your account for better security.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
