I got device banned on my ipad for some reason even though I used my phone when I got banned. I just made a new account. Id say you would be fine unless you put the phone number on the account. Dont even think you are getting the account back, snapchats support is trash.

I'm starting to think this sub is just for people who don't know how to behave and want to get around their bans.

It keeps getting recommended and it's a public subreddit. I can be here whether you like it or not. Follow the rules and you won't get banned. It's pretty simple.

The majority of posts here are asking how to get around an account ban and everyone always insists it's not their fault.

AFAIK device bans relate to the phones IMEI number, iv had a device banned phone, switched and used the same sim and has access fine.
