Snapchat Keeps Showing “Try Again in 72 Hours” Security Warning
I want to permanently delete my Snapchat account with the username “sule5591,” which I use on my Samsung Galaxy A31 Android device. The phone number registered to my account is 0538*******89. A few days ago, when I tried to delete my account, I received a warning that said: “Security alert, please try again from the same device after 72 hours.” Even when I tried again on November 7, 2025, I encountered the exact same warning and was unable to delete my account. Every attempt results in the same message, and the deletion process never completes.
My account is a standard, free account with no payments or subscriptions linked to it. I tried both Wi-Fi and mobile data, but the result didn’t change. I haven’t yet tried deleting the app and reinstalling it, nor have I tried from a different device. I also haven’t contacted Snapchat customer service yet.
Since I no longer use my account, I want it permanently deleted as soon as possible. I request urgent support to remove this waiting period and delete my account.
Progress
I opened my Snapchat account under the username “Sule5591” using my phone number. About an hour ago, when I tried to delete the account, the app constantly shows the warning “Try again after 72 hours,” and I cannot delete my account in any way.
I no longer want to use my account and request that it be permanently deleted. I ask that my phone number and all personal data linked to my account be removed from Snapchat’s system, that I am not asked to wait any additional time for this process, and that I receive a clear notification regarding the deletion of my account.
Hello, on the Samsung A31 phone we are currently using, when I previously tried to delete my Snapchat account named Sule5591, it gave a 72‑hour warning and my issue was resolved. Now it is giving the same warning again. What should I do?
I opened my Snapchat account with the username “Sule5591” using my phone number. When I tried to delete the account two days ago, the app kept giving me the warning “Try again after 72 hours,” and I cannot delete my account in any way. The same problem occurred two months ago and was resolved. I no longer want to use my account and request that it be permanently deleted. I ask that my phone number and all personal data linked to my account be removed from Snapchat’s system, that I not be asked to wait any additional time for this process, and that I receive a clear notification regarding the deletion of my account.
