Can I Create a New Amazon Web Services Account After My Old One Was Deleted?
Asked by

Hey everyone! So, here's the situation: my AWS account got deactivated due to issues with my credit card. I submitted the required documentation, but a day later, I received an email stating that my account was permanently deleted, and they didn't provide any reasons. I'm really frustrated because I feel like my documentation was probably fine, and they could have just informed me if something was missing. Thankfully, most of my important files were self-hosted, but I'm still annoyed. Now, I want to know: can I just create a new AWS account, or will my email and personal information be blacklisted?

I get where you’re coming from! When accounts are deactivated due to non-payment, they can be shut down permanently after 90 days if not resolved. But since your old account is gone now, you’re free to create a new one without issues. Just check out the AWS site for the sign-up details.

I totally understand your frustration. It looks like it's been over 90 days since your account was closed, so it can't be reopened. However, you can easily set up a new account using a different email. For more info on the account closure process, check out AWS's guidelines.

Yeah, you can definitely create a new AWS account! It’s actually quite common for people to do this when they face issues with their previous accounts. Just make sure to use a different email to register the new one, and you'll be all set! Good luck!
