Do you want to know how to completely delete or recover your Parler account?
So, you gave Parler a shot, but it just isn’t your cup of tea. However, instead of just uninstalling the Parler app and leaving your account as is, we strongly suggest completely deleting your Parler account. That way, none of your personal information, like your name or phone number, are stored on the platform.
Besides that, Parler isn’t a stranger when it comes to data breaches or information leaks 👨💻. In late 2020, many users’ information were leaked due to their third-party vendors’ servers being attacked by hackers.
Besides that, maybe you’re thinking about joining Parler again and need access to your old account 🤔. Or, you may have “accidentally” or unintentionally deleted that Parler account.
Well, if it isn’t too late, it’s possible to retrieve it. That way, you don’t lose your Parler username or phone number.
Therefore, this guide shows step-by-step how to completely remove all your traces from Parler or to recover your account.
Enough said, let’s jump right in.

I can’t log in and can’t delete my account. It is demanding I use a code sent to my phone, but didn’t send me a code. These jagoffs are as bad as fb. Zuck ’em all.
Won’t let me delete the account. When you click on “delete account,” it asks for your password. I enter and continue to delete . . . and it doesn’t move. I can’t delete this account.
Hi Sue!
That sounds like there’s an issue with the Parler platform. You could try again at a later time when the Parler servers and app is working correctly again. Also, you could try contacting Parler themselves, although it may take a while for them to respond.
Hope this helps.
