Kishan (@jan_jan_ki_baat) reported@WhatsApp you could review the circumstances surrounding this issue. I have always tried to comply with whats app terms of service and have not engaged in any activities that would violate your guidelines. Therefore, I suspect that ban might have been triggered inadvertently.

香港 (@esim8888) reported@WhatsApp WhatsApp blocked me from registering with a legit T-Mobile US number, calling it "invalid." It’s NOT VoIP. It’s NOT virtual. Just your outdated system refusing real users. Fix your broken verification. Stop wasting our time. Absolute trash.

Nora Wood (@Norawoodson1255) reported@Narendra3105198 @WhatsApp WhatsApp banned my number for no reason. I don’t spam, I don’t violate rules and still, they shut me down. Support was useless. @Drezfixx here on Twitter handled it like a pro and got it unbanned. 10/10 recommend.

WhatsApp Rubbish (@esim8888) reported@finkd @WhatsApp WhatsApp in 2025: Can’t register. Can’t verify. Can’t get help. It's not a messaging app anymore — it's a dead app store icon. If Meta won’t fix it, they should bury it.
-
D1g1t@l©0d3® (@edeiller) reported@WhatsApp @WhatsApp Please allow group admins to disable or delete accidental voice chats. After the first use, there’s no confirmation anymore, and it often confuses older users. This can cause real disruption. An option would really help. Thank you!
