Using textnow

I just had a brilliant idea. For anyone who uses phone number for 2FA you could use the textnow number. Just don’t give that out to anyone (I’m not smart. Just used textnow trying to do the heck voicemail but didn’t work but the time bought of this Laughing out loud)

@brettster99Simply dial your PM phone number - reject the call when it rings (this sends the call to voicemail) - press the * key to allow you to enter your password. - enter it followed by # - and you are in your voicemail account - Hang up when you are finished. No minutes used.

Stay safe.

Took a little bit of trial and error to get it right (and a couple more times trying to remember my password lol) but I did it. Finally. Thanks for that
