Hi Megan
You didn't understand what I'm trying to say. When I'm login it show me the error " sorry, an error occurred. Please try again later". Then I was reset password the password is successful reset but it ask me 8 digit emergency code and code was lost. Then I'm login with new password it's show me again an error "sorry, an error occurred. Please try again later". It doesn't send me the verification code on phone number.
I hope you understand what I'm trying to say.
