  Hi there,

  Unfortunately, once deactivated/deleted, it cannot be recovered. It is saying it is unavailable because it has been previously used. There are warning messages throughout the process of deactivation/deletion. In some cases, if it has been two years or more and no conflicts, then it is possible.

  See here for more information:

  I’m sorry there isn’t better news.
