To recover your Strava account without email or phone number, you need to submit the Strava feedback form or you can create a new Strava account and report a problem directly on the app. Once you’ve submitted the feedback form or reported a problem, wait for a few days for Strava’s response.
If you don’t have access to your email or phone number, you won’t be able to reset your password. Hence, to recover your account, you need to contact Strava directly. Other than the feedback form, there is another way where you can contact Strava.
You can do so directly on the Strava app. However, you need to make another account first. Once you’ve made another account, log in to Strava, navigate to your profile, and tap on the three dots. Then, scroll down and tap on “Report a problem”.
Then, select a relevant topic, tap on “No”, tap on “Still have problem”, describe your problem, and tap on “Report”. Anyhow, below is a step-by-step guide on how you can recover your Strava account without email or phone numbers.
How to recover Strava account without email or phone number
Step 1. Go to the Strava feedback form
The first step is to go to the Strava feedback form. The Strava feedback form has two uses. Firstly, it allows you to share feedback that you have about your experience on the app. Secondly, you can tell them about a problem that you’d like to report. Any information that you provide will only be used to respond to your report. You can visit the form on a desktop or on mobile.
Firstly, search for “Strava feedback” on Google and click on the first search result. Alternatively, you can visit the feedback form. This is the official Strava feedback form. Proceed to the next step to learn what to do next.
Step 2. Enter your email address and username
Once you’re on the Strava feedback form, you’ll see a “Contact Information” header. Under the “Contact Information” header, you’ll see two fields. The first field is the “Email address” field which has an asterisk. Under the “Email address” field, enter any email address.
The email address does not have to be associated with your Strava account. Since you’ve lost access to your old email address, use an alternate email address that you have. Otherwise, you’ll have to make a new one.
Next, you need to enter your Strava username under the “Username” field. Although the field is optional, you need to enter it since you’re trying to recover your account. Hence, enter the username of the Strava account that you want to recover. Proceed to the last step to learn how to complete and submit the form.
Step 3. Explain that you lost your email and phone number
After you’ve filled in your email and Strava username, scroll down the form. Under the “Username” field, you’ll see a “What would you like to tell us?” field in asterisk.
This field is compulsory, and you’ll have to explain the problem that you’d like to report. Since you’re trying to recover your Strava account, you need to explain that you lost access to your email address and phone number.
Here’s an example, “Hi Strava, I forgot my Strava password but I lost access to my email and phone number. My username is @example. Can you help me to recover it?”. Under the “What would you like to tell us?” field, you’ll see an “Upload” link where you can upload attachments.
As you’re reporting that you lost access to your email and phone number, you don’t have to upload any attachments. Instead, you can simply submit the form. Tap on the “Submit” button to submit the form.
Once the form is submitted, you need to wait for 3 to 5 business days for Strava’s response. They will respond to you via the email address that you’ve entered on the “Email” field. Hence, make sure to check your email for their response with instructions on how you can recover your account.
