    If you deleted the account or it if was deleted due to inactivity, no, it cannot be recovered. If the account was part of a Business team and deleted within the last 7 days, the team admin might be able to restore it.

      No, sorry. 

       

      Inactive accounts are immediately not recoverable and business ones 7 days.
