Telegram occasionally implements soft bans during login as a security feature. While rare, this can prevent 2FA code delivery.
Typical Resolution Times:
-
Usually clears after 30 minutes
-
Can occasionally last up to 24 hours
Recommended Solution: Enable Telegram's internal 2-Step Authentication (2SA) setting, which adds a second layer of authentication and often resolves soft ban issues.
Download Limitations: Because Telegram may throttle or cancel long download sessions, we recommend limiting data extractions to one month at a time.
