My mobile number changed a few years ago but I never updated my profile.
Now I can't log in as Paypal wants to send me a text on the old number to verify the account.
I've tried logging in from a different browser which doesn't work.
Also tried using the Help Chat system, but this also requires me to log in to proceed.
Tried ringing the help support number but spent ages going round and round in circles with the automated options, could not get to a point of speaking to an actual person.
Funny thing is, when I selected 'Ask the Community' to access this forum, it allowed me to log in to create this profile to do this!
Really stuck as to how to resolve. Would really appreciate if anyone can offer some help with this please?

Hey, i cant access to my paypal account (i have mail and password) because when i log in it asks me for a code sent to phone, but i dont own that phone anymore, so basically how can i recover my account with security answer or something? because it only ask me for the phone code and nothing more, anyways all i need from that old account its my "vendor id" because i need it to verify my account in a site which is not paypal, how can i get that if i cant access my account? sorry for my english and thanks for the help.

Hi There,
So I have a strange situation.
I have used an expired sim card so I can no longer access it and therefore cannot pass the SIM authentication when I am logging into paypal.
I called paypal to try and have it changed but they asked me for the last 4 digits of my card, and I used a prepaid card, so I do not have access to this.
It has been years since I used this account and when I last used it , I had incurred some sales and paypal put my account on a 180 day ban.
I have funds in the paypal account but cannot access them 😞
Can someone please please make any suggestions as to how I may go about recovering my funds or the account.

Lukas It doesnt work anymore. If I want to change paypal settings it asks for 2nd verification and its with old number...
I dont know what else to do. I can call to USA - it says that number is wrong, can not chat because you need to log in ... I tried to pay with paypal and just login without confirming payment it also didnt work..
HELP! someone who knows
