Is it possible to register a new protonmail account without using a personal cell phone number? Spoiler: Of course it is.
The solution to your problem is a virtual phone number for registration
What is a virtual number?
A virtual phone number is a mobile number that you use to register with services and applications. You buy a number from a verified website, register with PayPal and activate an SMS code through the website.
The registration procedure for the number and registration in the service you want is reduced several times and saves nerves, money and effort. Also, the technical support of the store where you bought the virtual number is with you all the way.
If you decide to delete your ProtonMail account, follow the instructions
- Log in to your personal account using your username and password
In your personal account, select the «Settings» tab.
If you forgot your old username and password, use the restore function. Technical support service will help you restore the lost data. - Scroll to the end of the page in the «Settings» tab
The last line of the settings allows you to delete the account. Click «Delete account». - This is not the end of deleting your account
Next, you need to confirm your actions. A window will open allowing you to write the reason for deleting the account. This feedback is collected by the developers of the application to understand exactly what you didn’t like. You can also leave your email address there. This is useful if you want to restore your deleted account in the future rather than create a new one.
It may take up to two weeks to delete your account. This means that during this time your account may still be active because it’s going through moderation before deletion.
