Lost Phone

[JGC82]

I've lost my Public mobile phone and can't login to my original account with the 2 factor authentication.  I have a new phone and new Public mobile Sim, just need to swap phones.  PLEASE HELP.

Thank you, I have opened a ticket. None of the workarounds worked.

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? Look like you didn't set up EverSafe login yet.

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:

Try a few times and if it still doesn’t work then your only option is to contact a CS_Agent.

[JGC82]

When I click, "resend code" the only options I have are "send text" or "send voice message" neither will work in this case.  How do we get to send to email????

It doesn't give the option to send to email or to try another option.

[JGC82]

It doesn't give the option to send to email, auto sends to the phone that isn't accessible.

@JGC82

The code will be sent to your email so you can access your account.

[JGC82]

Thank you for your reply. I no longer have the old phone, so the code won't be accessed.

Tap on Resend Code and it will give you the option of sending the 2FA code to the registered email then go to your Profile section and update the SIM card number and reboot your phone by powering off then back on.
