Cannot login my account to reactivate my service as OTP is required by text when I am in oversea now

[TristaC]

I suspended my account in May as I am traveling for four months... I know that I need to reactivate within 90 days, which should be around the end of Aug, while I won't be back in Canada until early Sep. When I tried to log in to my account today, I found that it required OTP through text or phone call, I don't remember whether I created Eversafe ID, I tried the methods in the forum to get the email OTP option but failed. 
What else can I do to log in to my account to reactivate my plan by the deadline to avoid losing my phone number? 😢

@TristaC 

PM just changed to a new EverSafe login system and you need to complete the setup on this new system. 

Have you login to My Account since EverSafe was introduced?

If you have already created an EverSafe id, you can ask the code to send to email instead
On the screen it is expecting you to enter the code, click Resend code and then choose Send email

If you have not created an EverSafe id yet,  you won't be able complete the part to link your My Account with the EverSafe ID, that needs a working phone with a working PM sim using SMS.  (Sending the code to email would not be a choice until  EverSafe id is fully setup) 

Try these workarounds, it could bypass the SMS in linking My Account with EverSafe ID

1. Reset your password to self service account. Once reset, sign in again with new password. Might be able to receive 2FA via email instead to gain access.
   (!!!You will need to click Resend Code and then Send email to trigger the 2FA to email)
   
2. Potential workaround (for some): If you don't have access to SMS OTP, try entering an incorrect OTP code 4 times. For some individuals, this is giving the option of an email instead.

If none of those workarounds helps,  please open ticket with support by direct message here:
