Can a new subscriber who bought my old phone number enter my messengers?

As you know, a phone number after blocking will lie in quarantine for several months and then will be available for purchase to any new subscriber as good as new. Does this mean that a person who bought a new SIM card with my old number in the future will be able to log into the accounts of WhatsApp, Viber, Telegram and other services, which can be accessed only by phone number and code from SMS to this same number? And what should I do then? I now want, after a huge number of years, to block the current one and change to a new number. How to protect yourself?

The bottom line is that the newly sold number is no longer yours. There can be no claims to the operator.
It turns out that legal relations between you and information services remain. If you have not notified the service about the change in the way of contacting you (phone number), then this is your problem.

Before changing your number, ask support to delete your account. Otherwise, in any way, indeed, such a situation is the place to be.

You change in all services the old number to the new one. And there will be happiness. What's difficult?

It can, but at a minimum percentage.
In the one you listed - hardly: a long break, a new Device ID, IP / provider / location, etc. - usually this is all controlled using a behavioral algorithm just to ensure that this does not happen.
Usually they are asked to confirm a new device by sending a link to the mail.
You can try to immediately recover your password by sending a confirmation email (without a mobile phone). However, I'm not sure that this is available everywhere ...
Or you can send a letter to the TP and notify that the number is lost and needs to be relinked to another number. They will simply unlink the mobile from the account if you can answer all the questions about restoring access.

Some money was taken from my card. The bank did nothing.

In Google on the forum of accounts and gmail (most people think that the mailer and the account are the same) - 100500 questions about this.
How does Google solve this problem?
He solves it in the toughest and most inhuman way, not letting her into the account, and that's it.
In a Google account, there can be GPay, Google Play (also mercilessly confused by the inhabitants), buying movies, music, additional disk space, etc.
That is, there is something to profit from.
Mail.ru and Yandex, Amazon, Verizon, Samsung, Alcatel, and various "Chinese" and other giants, as well as opsos provide paid services, and somewhere there is a payment profile.
Our inhabitant, most likely a creature in terms of development, descended not from a monkey in the process of evolution, but from a marmoset marmoset, like a hike.
The layman treats everything that is now in communication and the Internet so easily!
There, marmoset, gnawed off the fruit, threw out the rest, pooped, jumped, and with a sweet twitter rushed on.
People are so careless about their data, so inattentive to numbers, accounts and passwords - that it defies any human description.
:(
How does it look in real life?
The reasons for losing a number can be different. Only a third of respondents in Europe and Asia are attentive to their data, and change all their online registrations IN ADVANCE.
The remaining two-thirds either put up with the loss of data, registrations and accounts, or slowly create new registrations.Consequences
and what to do
• Apps usually contain a cache and can be accessed if the device is the same.
And change in the settings to new data.
• Search for support of a particular site or application through a search engine, and read - what to do so as not to lose the entrance.
• Set up multiple login/recovery options
• Set up auto-saving of passwords in the device under an account / when using an account
• THE GOOD OLD WAY: a notebook with saved passwords and logins, and all the details.
• DO NOT forget to control everything.
• Do NOT have 100500 registrations, so that "yes, I'll take a look and go out, what" - you need to google first, and not climb everywhere.
About money
In order not to have problems with the loss of funds from a number or card, study the ways of protection.
And then such a bunny sits (a smoky man with a belly and a bald head, or the deputy director of LLC "Horns and Hooves", or all such frya, "bitch, otter and vabshche") and babbles about how cruel life is, lope bastards in it, and how they bunny hurt.
After all, this is not a zaykino business - read manuals and configure protection, no! Current sob and cry, and sniff.
It is impossible to prove anything to bunnies. They firmly decided that life is pain, and a complete fraud.

• Explore options for editing accounts in instant messengers.
• Learn from mobile operators how to protect yourself from unauthorized additions and debits
• Learn from banks how to protect accounts...
It does not require much time and mental effort, and the benefits are many.
