Two step verification code not coming.
Hello there,
When logging into my account, the two-step verification code is not coming. "We sent a code to your number ending with xxxx" but no sms is received.
There is no device on which my account is open. So I can't remove two-step verification.
When I use the same phone number on another account, the code comes up.
I don't remember the security code either.
Your help is needed.

Hey burakckrrr, thanks for reaching out to our Community.
If the SMS takes a long time to arrive or doesn't arrive at all, you might need to use an offline code generator.
Can you check this article for some more info on what you need to do?
Let me know how it goes. - burakckrrr5 years agoExplorer | Level 3
I can't login to my account. Two-step authentication gets stuck while sending sms.
I will remove two step verification if I can login to the account.
I guess I can't generate offline code without logging into my account.
It just sends SMS confirmation.
