I Can’t Log Back Into My Telegram Account Because It’s Tied to an Old Phone Number

I was suddenly logged out of my Telegram account, and now I can’t get back in. I’ve been using this account for a long time and had all my important contacts, messages, and personal information stored there. The problem is that the account was created using my old phone number, which I no longer have access to.

Telegram only allows sign-in through SMS verification, and since the code is sent to my old number, I’m completely locked out. There is no option to recover the account with an alternate method like email, and it seems like my account is about to be permanently lost.

I urgently need Telegram to step in and help me recover my account or transfer it to a new number. This is extremely important to me, and the lack of recovery options is unacceptable. Please provide a solution immediately—this is causing serious distress.
