Facebook Account: Facebook is an integral part of our online lives, yet at times we lose access to our account due to forgetting our password and the associated email or phone number. Relax—following these easy steps, you can regain access. This tutorial assists you in recovering your Facebook account even when you are unable to access your number or email.
Find Your Facebook Account
First, remember the proper name you employ when you are on your Facebook account. Then, request your friends or relatives to look up your profile. It is a step that assists you to confirm your account and gives you the right information to begin the recovery process.
Utilize the 'Forgot Password' Feature
Now, go to Facebook and select the "Forgot Password" option. There, you will have a request asking for your email or phone number. Instead of filling in those credentials, enter your account name. You will then get a list of accounts with your name.
This method assists you in finding your account when you can't access your registered number or email.
Recover Using Trusted Contacts
It even gets easier if you have set up Trusted Contacts before losing access. To select the Send a recovery code from your Trusted Contacts option, click No longer have access to these?. Next, you will need to contact your Trusted Contacts to ask them to send you the recovery code. Use that code to regain access to your account and without much hassle.
Authenticate Yourself
If you didn't enable Trusted Contacts, then you can also use Facebook's Help Center. Complete the "Identity Verification" form found there. Then, upload a scanned version of your proof of identity, which can be your Aadhaar card, passport, or driving license. Facebook will check your details and regain access to your account after they verify your identity.
Use Your Old Device
In addition, if you logged into Facebook using your previous device recently, attempt to begin the recovery process using that exact device. Taking this step will hasten the recovery process because Facebook can identify your device and give you access sooner.
Last Tips for Future Security
Lastly, don't forget to update your phone number and email address in your Facebook settings. In addition, create Trusted Contacts for future easier recovery. By doing so, you lock down your account and prevent the same thing from happening again in the future.
