Facebook Web URL Problem

[rpwells]

Hi all,

I deleted my business page yesterday because it had an error when trying to add a new phone number. So I started over and now I can't recover my web address [www.facebook.com/(user name)] because it is "already taken"...

Any suggestions?

I can't find out how to contact Facebook about this issue...it seems like they are pretty unfriendly when it comes to customer support :S

What did Facebook say?

Can you not revive the old page?

I do not believe it's possible to get the username back.

Yeah, I tried to revive the old page but it basically blocked me out claiming it was already in use...I put in a support ticket but haven't heard back. Looks like from what others said Online that I am not the only one to experience this issue. Either way, I think Luke is right...once you lose it-- it's gone. I'll keep you posted on what happens.

I doubt you will be able to get it back if someone has a.ready taken up that username.
