Meanwhile, I am not a fan of third party or unofficial applications and never downloaded or have any official WhatsApp application on my phone, I have tried fruitlessly for days but all to no avail.

Na me get Malaria abi na you dey give me headache?

nuland:
That part was another way of saying I don't have any official WhatsApp application on my phone.

immortalcrown:
Meaning you have been using GB WhatsApp?

nuland:
No

immortalcrown:
You dey confuse me.

Do you mean you never used WhatsApp, whether official or unofficial, for the phone number?

If you have not used WhatsApp for the number, I am confused. How was WhatsApp able to detect the number and send you a notification?





If you have used WhatsApp for the number before the occurrence of the problem, was it the official WhatsApp or the unofficial WhatsApp?

I also faced the same issue. I guess your i.p has been banned. You can't use whatsapp on that phone via that number for now.

It's either you were reported, or you used a custom whatsapp.

nuland:
Thanks! What if I change my phone but retain my number?

stephinnoyewole:
This is becoming a trend now... my two WhatsApp accounts are blocked now and support arent doing anything about it

nuland:
Are you in a position to help me fix this?

thowbie7ven:
Just format the phone to factory settings....when i say format, i mean wipe any and every data on it off by going through and factory settings...After this, configure your phone and install WhatsApp

Is it thesame “you need official WhatsApp” issue or another issue?

nuland:
I got another phone('London Used'), formatted it before installing whatsapp... But the problem persists.

thowbie7ven:
Chai...then i guess it's the line then

LeOrlly:
Please, I have been logged out from whatsap for the past three days. Been trying to login with my sane phone number but I have not been getting the OTP code. Getting an error that we cannot send code to the mobile number because you tried registering. What can I do please.

Any one experiencing this too and has solution?

How were you able to sort this? I am presently going through the same dilemma. I will appreciate your response, thanks.

nuland:
The issue persisted and I resigned to fate but surprisingly I tried again after like 2 weeks from the last attempt and Lo and behold I was able to use WhatsApp on that number again but lost all my chats.
I can't say for sure what got me back my account as I sent countless e-mails(replies were automated), my candid advice is you 'lock-up' for a while and see how things pan out.

I have sent countless of emails and yet, nothing. Do you think using another phone would help with this? I am exhausted like this.
