Plan renewal - not able to login to account

[Abs2]

Hello

I got an Account under xxxxxxxxxxxxx@gmail.com which I got the plan for my spouse. Now she is gone to overseas and I need to activate the plan.When I want to login it sends a code to the public mobile number that is on the account and I can’t get the code because the phone and SIM card is not here. She can not use that number or receive that code via text message outside Canada either. Is there any way you can activate OTP through email.

Log in to account. Let the code be sent to cell phone. Then tap to resend code. You will be given 3 options. 

1. Text to the number 

2. Voice call to the number. 

3. Email to wife’s gmail. 

Hopefully you know her password or you can obtain it.

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

Since 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 and have them to help in this situation:
