How to Open Blocked or Banned Telegram Channels

Telegram has become one of the most popular messaging apps worldwide, offering end-to-end encryption, self-destructing messages, and a wide range of features for both personal and professional purposes. However, certain channels may be blocked or banned due to violations of Telegram’s rules and regulations. If you find yourself unable to access a desired channel, there are several steps you can take to unblock it:

  1. Check Channel Status: The first step is to search for the desired channel using its username or ID and check if it is ‘blocked’ or ‘banned’. This information can be found on Telegram’s official website or by contacting the app’s support team. If the channel is indeed blocked, you may need to use alternative methods to access it.
  2. Use a Proxy Server: If the channel is banned in your country, you can use a proxy server as an intermediary between your device and Telegram’s servers to access it undetected by moderators or censors. There are many free and paid proxy servers available online that can be used for this purpose. Simply install a proxy extension on your device, enter the proxy server’s IP address and port number, and connect to Telegram using this new connection.
  3. Create a New Account: If you cannot join the channel using a proxy server, you may need to create a new account in a country where the channel is not banned. This requires technical knowledge and basic understanding of VPN setup but allows access to channels blocked or banned in your country. First, download and install a reputable VPN client on your device. Then, connect to a server in the desired country and create a new Telegram account using that connection. Once the account is created, you can join the channel as usual.
