I started to create an account, but found I had already created one of which I have no record. How do I recover access? How do I tell CashApp to stop trying to set up a new account?

A: Uninstalling/reinstalling the app reset its state. (Clearing all app data would probably also have worked, based on this.) The app asked me for an email address or mobile number; I guessed that I had used mobile instead of email, since I haven't been able to find any evidence of emails from them -- and that worked.

While trying to create that account, I discovered that it will reject email addresses that contain certain strings (e.g. "flip"). In my case, I had to change the address from cashapp2021@ to cshapp2021 -- so maybe "cash" is another red-flag word. It doesn't seem to be anything to do with the domain or the email server at that domain.

Apparently although you can connect to an external bank account without a debit card, CashApp only supports transfers to such accounts. In order to move money from the external account into CashApp, you have to have a working debit card.
