Can confirm this. Tried to set up a new Twitter account for business use, got the phone number challenge but wasn't able to go any further because the number I wanted to use was "already in use" i.e. my own number I already stupidly associated with my personal twitter account.
To add insult to injury I've been suspended permanently because Twitter's "offence" AI can't distinguish between black humour and a direct physical threat. But that's another story.
- 80386 7y agoThe same thing happened to me. But I was somehow able to create a new account on Microsoft Edge. It hasn't been disabled, but I don't plan to use it. If they want to kill their own business, I say let them.
- slig 7y agoThey insta-banned two new accounts from me (for side-projects) after I entered my phone-number which was associated with my personal account. They went from a no-law-free-spam zone to shoot-first-and-don't-ask-later.
