How to verify account via text or phone?
 

My account already was phone verified, but I no longer have the phone anymore. Now, when ever I log into the account, I get an automatic message saying that I gotta reverify it.

I have no phone! :O

So how do I get access to my money? :(

All Help is appreciated!! :D

Wait it out, might take a few weeks.

Another one of those people "I don't have access to the phone" just epic fail... how can one succeed in business like this....

Not everyone that uses a stealth account runs a business or sometimes people change their phone numbers and forget..like me.

Welcome to the forums - do you have an option to enter a new phone number?

Re: How to verify account via text or phone?
 

The only possibility you MIGHT have is to add a new number and wait it out. If you add a new number now and try to use it you will get this message:
"this phone number does not appear to be registered to you"

Now paypal has no clue who the phone is actually registered to. But they do know that you are trying to change that number and they probably have a good reason why. So the original number is toast and your only option is to add a new number. You will have to be patient, and there is still no guarantee that it will still work. It's really your only option though

only option you have is to submit your ID. Unfortunately I have personally never seen that you can add a new phone and it appears later. Only the First Phone number used for registration works for this issue.

You can also if your brave enough Ring in PP and have them switch the phone number in their system.
