They didn't ban your account for not having a phone number.

What else? I was creating this for Youtube videos for my son. When we were about to upload a video, it was already banned.

I dunno, but you weren't banned for not having a phone number attached to your account, because I and many others have accounts without phone numbers and are not banned.

It may depend on the time frame and geolocation. I tried to do this about 6 months ago.

I have also an old account that does not have a phone number and it is functional.

What I was describing was a creation of a new account.

I'm not Google customer support, but I'll repeat for a third time; you were not suspended because you didn't provide a phone number.
