Twitter blue tick verification comes back after bug: This is how
Since, Elon Musk has taken control over Twitter, it has changed manifolds and at times has created nuisance for its users. It seems like Musk is busy concentrating on his social presence rather than thinking of the wellbeing of Twitter’s users.
Recent uproar about the removal of blue ticks from verified accounts and how people need to pay for it, even the world famous celebrities, has only added more fuel to the fire against Twitter and Elon Musk. Some of the Indian celebrities like Amitabh Bachan, Shah Rukh Khan, Sachin Tendulkar were all seen without their Twitter verification badge.
How to get Twitter blue tick verification badge
In case you didn’t know, the Twitter blue tick is a paid feature now. But a Twitter bug has been detected which can give you the blue tick verification mark but also take it back within a few seconds.
A lot of Twitter users who previously had blue ticks, tweeted that if they added “former blue check” then the blue tick would suddenly appear after saving the bio but it would vanish even more quickly.
A lot of Twitter users tried this out and most of them who earlier had the verification marks, got it back for a very short interval and then it was fine again. So, this is definitely some kind of bug, which Twitter needs to fix, so that people whose verification badges were taken away, don’t see a sudden ray of hope and get disappointed seconds later.
I just wrote “former blue check” in my bio and then a blue check appeared next to my name. I deleted it bc it weirded me out but… coding error? Will someone else try this

It has been noted that people who never had the blue ticks, for them this bug doesn’t work. Even if they make changes in their bio, they didn’t receive any blue ticks.
As mentioned earlier, Twitter has lost its charm after Musk’s takeover and now this move of making the blue tick verification marks paid are just causing fresh acrimony and frustration within Twitteratis. People in different parts of the world even had campaigns against it.
The Twitter blue tick was a status symbol and allowed the world to know that the particular person is important in some respect or the other. But now, people don’t want it anymore and the blue tick is now forfeited.
