FreeMarker if statement comparing two values

I'm trying to compare two values

<#if user.cellPhone != changedUser.cellPhon>
 <br><span class="changes">*$changedUser.cellPhone</span></#if>

I'm getting an error

freemarker.core.InvalidReferenceException: The following has evaluated to null or missing:==> changeUser

Tip:

If the failing expression is known to legally refer to something that's sometimes null or missing, either specify a default value like myOptionalVar!myDefault, or use <#if myOptionalVar??>when-present<#else>when-missing. (These only cover the last step of the expression; to cover the whole expression, use parenthesis: (myOptionalVar.foo)!myDefault, (myOptionalVar.foo)??

Why's there no changedUser (as the error message says)? Is that intended to happen? (Why doesn't the quoted tip help?)

Should be changedUser?? instead of changedUser != null. FreeMarker 2 has no null.
