Quite often I see how people delete their VKontakte pages and all that remains of a person’s full-fledged page with a reflection of his life over several years is a dead dog. If these are the pages of friends, I feel both sad and happy for the person. On the one hand, he seems to have escaped from the influence of the social network and plunged into real life, on the other hand, it will now be more difficult to communicate with him.
But time passes and in 95% of cases the deleted page appears again. A person simply restores a deleted VKontakte page and continues to use it as if nothing had happened.
How does this happen? The fact is that any deleted personal VKontakte page can be restored within a certain time. In this way, the social network allows users to cool down and return their profile, rather than recreating it, again adding information, friends and photos.
How long does it take to restore a page?
There is a lot of conflicting information published on the Internet regarding the time after which it is possible to restore a deleted VKontakte page, so I made a request to the technical support of the social network in order to dispel your doubts.
Official answer: The account will be permanently deleted only after 210 days, before which you will be able to restore it in the form in which you set it for deletion.
Almost the same thing is written in the frequently asked questions.
So, a deleted VKontakte page can be restored within 7 months, or to be precise, during 210 days. After this time, neither contacting technical support nor any other actions will help.
How to restore a page
Until 210 days have passed from the moment the page is deleted, it is essentially simply hidden from other users; you can log in to VKontakte at any time and restore it.
There is no need to remember the deadline for completely deleting a page, since you can always log in and view it.
If you can't log in
It happens that you deleted your VKontakte page, but another page is already registered to your mobile phone number. In this case, you cannot log into the account of the deleted page and restore it. But the solution is very simple. Link the new page to a different phone number. Now, using the old phone number, after logging in, you will go to your deleted page.
Odnoklassniki is a social network that was one of the first on the Russian-language Internet, and its popularity is still high. A user-friendly interface, news feed and many other functionalities that allow you to communicate, exchange photos and videos, make purchases, find the people and information you need.

If your trick doesn't work, you'll have to create a new account.
Important! You can register a new page to a number previously used in Odnoklassniki only after 3 months have passed after deleting your profile.
If you did not delete the page completely, but only removed all personal information, then no additional recovery actions are necessary. You just need to fill out your profile again.
Restoring a hacked page
Whether it is possible for you to restore a profile that has been hacked is decided by the administration of the social network. networks, but often the answer is positive.
Detailed instructions on how to restore a hacked page are described on the Odnoklassniki website itself.
You can log in to a hacked page simply by changing your password using a confirmation code received on the phone number linked to the page. If you lose your phone number, a similar confirmation can be made through the mailbox that is assigned to your account.
Restoring a profile without a phone number and email will be much more difficult; to do this, you need to contact the Support Service. Administrators will definitely help you and tell you how to confirm your identity.
Important! When contacting support, try to describe the current situation in detail and provide as much information as possible about your lost profile:
- login
- first and last name
- age
- place of residence
- link to the page
- other important data
How to revive an old page.
Often, users who registered a long time ago and have not visited the site for a long time lose or forget the data necessary to log in. If this situation occurs to you, then you need to follow the instructions described above. You can restore a page with lost access data in the same way as a hacked profile. Depending on the severity of the situation, you will be asked to recognize your friends by photo, or another method of identity verification.

Created: 12/18/2016 20:20 Updated: 10/28/2017 15:11 Published: 12/23/2016 20:33Good afternoon, dear readers of the blog site. Today we will talk about how to properly restore a page in Contact. You may need to restore your VKontakte page in several cases. The most common situation is the loss of access to a page on VK.com (forgot your password, lost access to the cell phone number to which your VK account is linked, and now you can’t access your page). It is also a common case when a contact page for some reason becomes blocked.
You could accidentally delete your VK page yourself, or someone could do it without your knowledge by hacking your page and gaining access to your account. It often happens that VKontakte admins block access to vk.com for violating the rules for using the service. A page can be blocked for sending spam from it, or for some other similar offense in the form of suspicious activity on the account. Your computer may have become infected with a virus, and then your VK page was hacked.
One way or another, if your page is blocked on VKontakte, you will need to restore access to your VKontakte page. How to restore access to your VK page will be discussed in this post.
How to restore access to a VK page if there is no access
Let's start with the situation when you need to restore access to the page if you have forgotten your password or you do not have the SIM card with the cell phone number for which your account was registered at vk.com. If anyone didn’t know, then you can actually unlink your VK page from your cell phone number.
Let's start with the case when you need to restore access to your page in a situation where you lost your password or mobile phone SIM card, the number of which was used during registration. Before you begin the procedure for recovering your VK password, try first looking in the settings of the browser you are using to see if there are any saved passwords. Many Internet users do not clear their browser history and save passwords, which are then automatically inserted into the login and password fields on sites where passwords were saved in the browser. This is of course convenient, but over time it happens that people forget their access data to sites from social networks. networks, postal services. Therefore, I never save passwords in the browser, plus I don’t save them for security purposes, since saved passwords can be “hijacked,” especially if you surf the Internet on a Microsoft Windows operating system.
If you still couldn’t find the data to access your VK page, then you can start trying here recover your page password(that is, get a new password for your vk.com account)
1. You can restore access to the vk.com page if you have access to the mobile phone number associated with the page, which was specified during registration, and which was used as a login to enter the VK page. To restore access using a linked mobile phone, you need to go to the access restoration page, and then simply follow the intuitive step-by-step instructions.
You need to go through several simple steps of the recovery wizard, then you will need to come up with a new password, and then use the new password to access your VKontakte page.
2. If your page in Contact was registered a long time ago, and you have not linked it to a mobile phone (the function of linking an account to a mobile phone did not appear in vk.com immediately, and therefore for old accounts this function may not be used if it is specifically was not included by you), you will need to contact access restoration service for logging into a page in Contact.
On the page you will need to enter the address of your page in vk.com.
1. If you don’t remember the address of your page, then there’s nothing to worry about. You can search for yourself in VKontakte. This social network allows you to search for people without registration. You need to find your page and see its internal address, and you can do this by clicking on the link at searching for people on VK . The search can be carried out by full name or other data. You can simply enter your last name and city of residence, and I think you’ll be able to find yourself right away.
When you find your VK page through the search, click on the button " This is my page" to proceed to the next step to restore access to the page.
The process of restoring a page in VK will be more complicated if during registration you indicated “fake” data (fictitious data). If you have just such a case, then you will somehow have to remember the data with which the page was registered. But one way or another, you will still have to disclose your real data, since you will need to send a scan of your passport. So it won’t be possible to run the social network vk.com...
2. The next step you will need to take a selfie next to your computer monitor, attaching a scan of your passport to the application.
3. The next step to restore access to the VK page will be to provide a valid phone number and take a photo in front of your computer with the page open in the browser on your computer to restore access:
4. At the final step of the recovery wizard, you will need to upload any document with your photo and full name. A passport is perfect for this.
After you click on the “next” button, you thereby consent to your data in the form of your last name and first name being restored, that is, replaced with your real data. Then you just need to click on the submit application button and wait for the VK moderator’s decision on the verdict, about which you will be notified by SMS message that will be sent to the phone number you specified.
How to restore a page in a contact if it is blocked or the page is hacked?
- Let's clarify the point that problems with logging into your VK page can be caused if your computer is infected with viruses, or your mobile device is infected. For these common reasons, access to a page in a contact may be blocked. Access may be blocked if you are suddenly asked to send an SMS to access your account (do not fall for this scam under any circumstances). If you have this situation, then you definitely have a virus on your computer or mobile device. It will be necessary to carry out work to scan and eliminate viruses on the computer, and thus normal access to the page will be restored by itself. On the VKontakte portal they even offer their antivirus software called Cesurity, which can be downloaded absolutely free from the link. With this anti-virus software you can scan your computer and restore access to the social network vk.com. To scan your mobile device for malware, you can install the application application from Kaspersky.
- Also, in the case described above, the page may be blocked by moderators at vk.com itself for any violations. In such a situation, a message will be displayed about the reason why your VK account was blocked, and there will also be links to security instructions, where you can read how to avoid blocking your VK page in the future.
It will not be possible to restore access to your contact account before the specified period.
You should not fall for “fairy tales” to restore your page quickly for an additional fee from any third-party craftsmen. Such services are an outright scam, nothing more.
The gradation of blocking may be different for different periods.
The lightest case can be considered the so-called “freezing” of a page in vk.com. Freezing of the page may occur in the event of some minor violations, and the page may thus be frozen until you visit the page and become familiar with the reason for freezing the page. Most likely, you will need to change the password for your VK page (when changing the password, you can also change the phone number associated with your page, if there is any need for this).
To unfreeze the page, you will need to enter an SMS message and enter your new password, and then you will need to click on the button "Unfreeze page":
Everything is ready, we can say that your access to your page on the social network vk.com has been restored, and it will be visible not only exclusively to you, but to all users of the popular social network. VKontakte network.
A page may be frozen if suspicious activity is identified on it:
The process of defrosting the page will occur in the same way as described above - i.e. a code is sent via SMS to the cell number linked to your account. Next, you come up with your new password and click on the “Unfreeze” button. That's all in essence, after these movements there should be no more activity of a suspicious nature, since you have changed the password for your vk.com page.
Your account could be blocked for more serious violations and then all that remains is to wait for the blocking period to expire (usually it is indicated). There is no way to restore the page faster - this is the policy of the VKontakte administration.
If you receive a message that your page is blocked forever, then the only option to restore your blocked page is correspondence with social technical support. networks. I would like to give you the following advice. Under no circumstances should you use those when corresponding. to be rude to support, and to download rights in any way. It is better, of course, to conduct correspondence in a constructive manner, telling your current situation. There is a chance that your offense will be forgiven and the page will be restored.
