Dear WeChat Support, I am Julia, and I am encountering an issue with my WeChat account. My account currently has restrictions, preventing me from adding friends. I attempted to resolve this within the app by following the instructions. I entered my phone number, sent an SMS with a code, and now I am being prompted to find a friend who was recently active with me. Unfortunately, as I have just created my account, I have not been active enough to have interacted with any friends on the app. I would greatly appreciate your assistance in rectifying this issue and restoring full functionality to my account.

My phone with my Chinese SIM card was stolen, and I urgently need access to my WeChat account linked to the Chinese number (+86 [redacted] [redacted]). My WeChat ID is: wxid-v3m5ndj9iqpt22. My WeChat name is "Stefan Herrmann". I tried to log in with my German phone number (+49 [redacted]) but don't know my password, and all attempts to reset it through the app have failed. Please help me quickly to unfreeze my account, provide a new temporary password to my German number, so I can activate my account. I am flying to China next Saturday and need my WeChat for work.

Hello and good day. I am currently experiencing an issue with my account. I recently changed my phone number and forgot my password. Despite trying various methods to recover it, including reaching out to friends and submitting an appeal to WeChat, I have been unsuccessful. Additionally, my old phone number is no longer in service. Your assistance in resolving this matter promptly would be greatly appreciated, especially since I previously emailed WeChat about this last week but have not received a response. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Thank you.

I created my WeChat account 2-3 years ago when I only knew one person using it. Unfortunately, my account got blocked for no reason after 24 hours. I downloaded WeChat from the Apple Store on my iOS device. As I got to know more people using WeChat, I tried to unblock my account for months with no success due to poor customer service. The only option they suggest is to have a friend unblock me, but their official support page contradicts this by stating that a person from outside mainland China doesn't need to be on my friend list, which I never had the chance to create. Friends who tried unblocking me using a UK number received a system message stating we are not friends, which is opposite to what WeChat claims. I have many Asian friends and really want to use the app. Can anyone provide assistance?

Hello, I am reaching out for help with accessing my WeChat account. Unfortunately, I have forgotten my password and have been unable to reset it. I tried to get a verification code to reset the password, but I was unable to receive one. Consequently, I am currently locked out of my account and cannot view my messages or contacts. I would appreciate your help with resetting my password or offering any alternative methods to regain access to my account. Your assistance in this matter would be greatly valued. Thank you for your support! Best regards

My name is Frederick Wehbe. My WeChat account is Fredx15. My linked mobile number is +[redacted]3. My WeChat nickname is Fredy. My linked email address is [redacted] I initially signed up with WeChat in China back in [redacted] using a Chinese number and my passport number N[redacted], which has now expired (my new passport number is PB513819). Since returning to Australia, I changed my mobile number and email to the above details. I also switched my Android phone to a Google Pixel5 a few months ago. I was using WeChat without issues until it was mistakenly removed. Upon re-installing the app, I couldn't recall my password. I've tried various recovery methods but am stuck in the verification process. I cannot access the QR code scanner or have friends verify a code as I don't have their phone numbers. I filled out a password recovery form and emailed [redacted] with no response. I last used WeChat on Tuesday 25 April or Wednesday 26 April. I can identify two friends on my account, one named Tony ([redacted]3) and another named 'Clever'. I appreciate any help in resetting my password. Thank you. Fred Wehbe

Dear Customer Service, I am seeking assistance as my WeChat account has been restricted, and the reason is unclear. I am unable to connect with my contacts or send messages on the platform. I have reached out to WeChat security through the app, but the issue remains unresolved. I have been a loyal WeChat user for several years and have never faced such a problem before. As this disruption is impacting my business operations, I urgently require access to my account. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Sincerely, Geeta C. WeChat ID: GCowlessur Phone: +[redacted]3 Email: [redacted]

Здравствуйте. Мой аккаунт с номером телефона +[redacted]75, принадлежащий Александру Баёку, был заблокирован. Во время рабочей поездки в Китай 06.05 возникла ошибка, требующая повторного входа в приложение на следующий день. Доступ к аккаунту осуществляется через SMS, без установленного пароля. Находясь за пределами Беларуси, SMS с кодом плохо доходили или вовсе не поступали. Сейчас нахожусь в Беларуси, и SMS перестали приходить, предположительно, из-за большого количества запросов на получение кода. Могу ли я разблокировать свой аккаунт?

Hello. I've been unable to log into my WeChat account for quite a few years now. I created this account approximately 6 to 7 years ago. Unfortunately, I only remember my ID. I have lost the information such as the password, email, and full name I used to register on WeChat due to changing phones. Despite various attempts to recall my old password and recover it, I have had no success. I would greatly appreciate any assistance in resolving this issue as I wish to regain access to my WeChat account. My WeChat ID is Ayrien44.

Dear Sir, I am Waseem from Myanmar and I have been using WeChat for approximately three years. Recently, I encountered an issue where my account was unexpectedly blocked. I have been utilizing WeChat for trading with Chinese suppliers and have not engaged in any activities that may have violated the platform's guidelines. Last week, without warning, while communicating with my suppliers, my account was logged out and I have been unable to access it since. I would appreciate any assistance you could provide me with resolving this matter promptly. Sincerely, Waseem

I am having trouble signing up for WeChat because I need to be verified by a friend, whom I don't have yet. This issue is causing a frustrating cycle. I am looking for a better, faster, and easier way to sign up. I reached out to the WeChat Help Center through the app, but when they responded, they sent me back to the section on getting added by a friend. It seems like they may not have thoroughly reviewed my message. Can anyone offer assistance with this matter?

I recently began a new job that requires using WeChat for communication. Once I downloaded the WeChat app, registered with my phone number, and verified via email, my account was suddenly banned for a "suspected violation" even though I haven't engaged in any inappropriate activities. To unlock my account, I need a WeChat 'friend' to verify me. Unfortunately, I couldn't add any friends on WeChat due to the ban happening before I could do so. I'm seeking assistance on how to resolve this issue and unblock my account.

Hello WeChat support team, I'm encountering issues logging into my account due to a forgotten password. Despite attempting to restore access via SMS, I have not received the necessary message. Additionally, I am unable to recall my WeChat ID for alternative recovery methods. My registered phone number is +[redacted]58, and my first name is Marta. Unfortunately, I cannot provide my last name at the moment. I have a profile picture on my account. In an attempt to troubleshoot, I had a friend verify that my account is functioning properly. Thank you for your assistance.

I recently changed my phone after losing my previous one and needed to log back into my previous WeChat account. Despite having a linked email address, I was unable to log in through it. When attempting a password reset, the system claimed to have sent a message which I never received. I cannot sign in through my linked phone number as I am not receiving any messages in the United States. I have attempted friend verification with no success. I'm unsure of how to proceed in resolving this issue.

Two days ago, I traveled to China and, with my friend's assistance, set up WeChat for the first time. Shortly after sending invites to just two Chinese partners, who then met me at the station, my account got blocked. I've been attempting to unlock it for two days now using my Russian number to send the required SMS as per the instructions. Even though the messages are being sent and money is deducted, there's no response, and the platform indicates that the SMS wasn't delivered.

I signed up for WeChat on June 13th. Excitedly, I added over 5 family members as friends on June 14th, only to have my account blocked. I don't have any friends on WeChat. I've requested to unblock my account through WeChat's help center, but haven't received any response in the past 15 days. My account remains blocked. I was using an Android device in Finland. Thank you for any assistance you can provide.
