Telegram is one of the most secure and fast messaging apps with an end-to-end encryption system. It includes various interesting features like file/media sharing up to 2GB, phone calls, the recently introduced video call, and more. However, if you are using multiple messaging apps concurrently and have decided to leave Telegram, we’ve got your back. Closing a Telegram is a straightforward process as you don’t have to go through the app’s settings.
Note: Closing your Telegram account is permanent.
How to close your Telegram account
- Visit the Telegram Account Closure Page.
- Type in your phone number along with your country code and click Next. For example: if you are living in Nepal, enter +977 in front of your mobile number.
- Enter the confirmation code sent to your Telegram App and click Sign In. You won’t receive the code through SMS.
- On the next page, click Delete account.
- If you want to provide the reason for closing your account, type in on the “Why are you leaving?” field and click Delete My Account. As its optional, you can also click Delete My Account directly.
- A popup window will appear, select Yes, delete my account to confirm.
What happens when you delete your Telegram account
- All your data, including chats and contacts, will be deleted.
- If you’ve created any groups or channels, they will remain without a creator, but admins will still hold their rights.

HI sooraj,
If you still have access to this number, you can always deactivate Telegram account. But the problem on your case is you do not have access to Telegram account. Now you can use the Web version of Telegram to Log into and receive a deactivation code. On your PC, go to Telegram Web Version and Sign into Telegram using your Mobile number. Now go to Telegram Deactivate Page and follow the steps. Note: you will receive the confirmation code to delete Telegram account on the chat log in the Web version.
Thanks.

Hi John,
You can not contact Telegram by Phone, but you could write your problem using Telegram support page.
My mobile number is +9198******** and the telegram account of this number is hacked by someone and they used this account and they keep it in two-step verification code, therefore, they get trouble in a log in telegram account so I want to deactivate this account or send me two-step verification code or deactivate account permanently

Hello
I have a telegram service site for the people of Iran.
Hi i’ve recently deleted my telegram acc. Few times and how long should i wait till i can make a new account with the same number ?
7-10 days.
You can only create account for the same number no more than one time in two weeks. Also if you delete account again and try to register it again, ban time will increase.
