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?

My parents have a very old PayPal account that I'm helping them access. They have the user name and the password but because the account hasn't been accessed for years, it triggers the security prompt verification. This is set to very old telephone numbers which no longer work which makes it impossible to complete the verification in order to get into the account.
What is the process to reset or remove these numbers? There doesn't appear to be a way past that verification stage.
