Hi I recently had an account and I deleted it then decided to create a new one. I was sent a cancellation notifiction. When I tried to create a new one it worked but it says that I am a member or something on another account, *The one I thought I had gotten rid of* why is this? it is very frustrating and I cannot log back in to my other account and on this account It wont let me connect to twitter. I have sent for various password receting emails but it still will not let me log in to my old account. whether I use my current account username or my previous account ussername.
I have not been suspended from twitter either so I don't understand what the problem is. Why is my other account still running when I cannot log in?

Hi, when you delete an account we keep a record of the twitter account that was linked to it and we don't allow that account to be relinked.
We do this to stop system abuse as it's a common trick of systems abusers to try and delete their accounts to clear their abuse history. Your account can be restored in the advanced settings.
