Once you login, go to profile, turn second factor OFF

@darlicious  Just an FYI: CSA will not disable 2FA for a customer. They will help one regain access to their account, and once logged in they can disable it. 😫

@ryryncoke2082 

My point exactly! If you cannot recieve the verification code via email contact customer support to suspend your service via lost/stolen. If possible have the CSA also disable 2FA on your account before suspending it. Depending on your location you may have difficulty finding a new sim card. Canadian Cell supplies had a limited number of pm sim cards for sale on Amazon.ca for $4.99. Otherwise use the store locator at the bottom of the page and if possible call ahead to make sure they have pm sim cards in stock.

Edit:

As noted by @Luddite below only you can turn off 2FA.

To contact customer support : Submit a support ticket via SIMon the chat bot Click here 

Or if you cannot submit a ticket via SIMon then Click here   ....for additional member supplied info.

@ryryncoke2082   2FA can be send via email or SMS, you have a choice to pick the one to receive

Once you logged in, you can suspended the account yourself easily by going to the Lost/Stolen from Quick Menu

2FA you email address works unless an email alias is used.
