Once on the support page, create a ticket under the General Issue category. This will direct your request to the appropriate department at Riot Games.
3. Provide the Necessary Details
After selecting the “General Issues” category, fill out the required questionnaire. Include information about your account and reasons for wanting to unlink the phone number. Be thorough in your explanation to assist the support team in understanding your request.
4. Wait for Review and Action
Once your ticket is submitted, the Riot Games support team will review and process your request. Upon approval, they will proceed to remove your old phone number from the account.
Before proceeding, keep in mind a few points:
- 6-Month Waiting Period: There is a 6-month rule post unlinking your phone number, preventing you from linking the same number to any account for account security.
- Clash Participation: Unlinking may affect your ability to participate in Clash tournaments due to the closely associated phone number feature.
- Two-factor Authentication: Disabling the phone number link may also disable two-factor authentication, potentially compromising account security.
