Change Your Telegram Account
If your Kolo account is linked to Telegram and you need to change the connected Telegram account, please contact support.
For security reasons, Telegram changes are not available as a self-service action in the app.
If Your Email or Phone Is Already Linked to Another Kolo Account
Each email address and phone number can be linked to only one Kolo account.
If the email address or phone number you want to use is already linked to another account, you won’t be able to use it for a different Kolo account.
If you think this happened because you created another account earlier or lost access to your old login method, please contact support. Do not create a new account to bypass the issue.
If You No Longer Have Access to Your Old Email, Phone Number, or Telegram
If you can’t receive a verification code because you no longer have access to your old email address, phone number, or Telegram account, contact support. Our team will guide you through a secure verification process, which may include an additional identity check.
This may apply if:
you changed your phone number;
your device was lost or stolen;
you no longer have access to your old email address;
your email or Telegram account was compromised;
you lost access to your Telegram account;
you need to reset the Telegram account linked to your Kolo profile.
If you're writing from your registered email or from the in-app chat, no additional verification by email is needed. If you reach out from a different email or channel, we may ask you to confirm ownership of the account.
How Support-Assisted Changes Work
Contact [email protected] or use the in-app support chat if you still have access to your account.
Contact detail changes are protected by security checks. If we cannot confirm that you are the account owner, we may not be able to complete the request.
If you are changing your email through support because you no longer have access to the old one, additional protection steps may apply during the review process.
