@Timer- I edited my post.

@dust2dust 

i'm not challenge anyone,.. i'm learning from other,

 

they will get verification code just by email ,, not by SMS, because @rala7417  lost SIM card.

@Timer- Oh that's a good challenge. No. Have you? I'm up for learning as always. Does it no longer pop up with a confirmation like it did before asking for either an email or text? Y'know...to defend against sim swap fraud.

Adding - Ah. Checking out Get Help. The new system knows whether the 2FA was done up front or not. If not then it will do it here. If so, then it doesn't bother. Ok then. I enjoy learning new things.

 

@rala7417- Did you do the 2FA when you logged in to the site this time to change your sim?

@dust2dust 

oh my... ok do you tried to change any SIM # in new system? if no then and keep quiet.

HI @rala7417   could be cache or cookies problem

 

I would try on another browser, maybe Edge or Firefox.  If you don't have another one, try to use Incognito mode or InPrivate mode and see if it works

is will be working.

@Timer- That's a confident statement to make when we don't yet know if they confirmed the sim change.

Does the new sim work now? Maybe refresh the page to see if the number re-appears if you haven't already. Did you get a screen asking to choose email or SMS? Of course you would need to choose email. Did you get the code and enter it?

Log in to your account and change the sim. Don't do a whole new activation.
