Phone number already in use, but already deleted by previous user

I am trying to register with my phone number. I can't because it is "already in use". However, the person who used it previously has already removed it from their account. Could you make the phone number available again / update your database? Please advise! Thanks in advance!

What do you mean ... "the person who used it previously"? If you had another account, you cannot created a second account.

Maybe the same US number is being used to verify US location for more than one account...
