00:00existing discord account is already using this number. Good day folks and
00:05welcome to the channel. If this is an issue that you're running into I'm going
00:08to show you how you can actually sort this out. So it says over here that this
00:12number that I've entered in to verify my account is actually already connected to
00:16another discord account. So the first thing you want to do is go ahead and get
00:20out of here and then you want to go in and on your left hand side over here
00:26you'll go down to the bottom left and you'll tap on the gear icon and that's
00:30your user settings. Now over here it says phone number so what you're going to
00:34have to do is get into the account where this phone number is actually being used.
00:39Now the way you can do this is going up onto the three dots on your Google
00:45Chrome and you can go down and look for password and autofill and you're going
00:51to go in and you're going to tap on Google Password Manager. Now right over
00:55here you can tap on discord and right over here you'll be able to see your
01:00discord password and the actual account that it's linked to. So you can see that
01:07is the email address and you'll see the password right. So what you're going to
01:11do is you're going to go back to discord and you are going to log out of this
01:14account. You can do so by tapping on your account over here at the bottom you're
01:18going to say switch accounts and you can then see that the current one that you're
01:23logged into which is this one and it'll have a check mark next to it. So there is
01:29an alternative account you can go ahead and tap on that and this will allow you
01:33to log into this account. Now if this doesn't match up you can just go ahead
01:38go back into that switch accounts tab and you go manage accounts and right
01:42over here you will see what accounts have been logged in with this device and
01:47then you can just log in and once you've logged in you're going to go in to the
01:51settings tab and you're going to change that phone number or you can remove that
01:55phone number. Now once you've removed that phone number you can go ahead and
01:58you can actually enter that phone number into your new discord account.
02:04Alternatively for whatever reason that you cannot get the results through that
02:08process you can go into quacker.io you can see that's the address right over
02:13there and once you go in here you can actually get a SMS number for free. So
02:19all you have to do is tap on the select on any one of the numbers there is the
02:22number at the top there you can tap on the copy icon over there and once you go
02:27back in here and you want to enter in that number you'll have to then tap on
02:32add and you'll have to enter that number in over there. Make sure that this
02:36dialing code matches this dialing code you'll have to just remove that over
02:40there and you're gonna have to just say send and what will happen is the SMS
02:45will come up over here and then you can just use that then to verify your
02:51discord account with that other phone number. There we go folks there are two
02:54solutions to making sure that that error doesn't occur anymore. I hope you enjoyed
