Verify your account You're almost done! We just need to verify your account before we can create it.
Account verification helps with: - Preventing spam: we try to verify that real people, not robots, are creating accounts.
- Recovering account access: we will use your information to verify your identity if you ever lose access to your account.
- Communication: we will use your information to notify you of important changes to your account (for example, password changes from a new location).
Unless you explicitly tell us to do so, your phone number will never be sold or shared with other companies, and we will not use it for any purpose other than during this verification step and for password recovery and account security issues. In other words, you don't have to worry about getting spam calls or text messages from us, ever.
For more information, please read our frequently asked questions. Verification Options Text Message Google will send a text message containing a verification code to your mobile phone.
Anyone know if BT charge you for these messages, as I am sure they have a charge for them? |
