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?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi @Nichavel
Thank you for contacting community.
I see you're facing issues accessing your account due to phone number change. In this case, you can contact PayPal over the phone and validate your account in order to login. You can find the contact details in the Link. I hope this helps.
Thank you
Punith

Is there any way to contact PayPal without having to call as in my case that would require a long-distance call from a mobile phone.

If you go to the 'Help & Contact' icon on the PayPal website. Then if you click the 'Contact Us' link at the bottom of the page. From here, if you click the 'Password and Account Access' option, then 'Login Problems'. On the next page, you will see a 'Call Us' option. You do not need to be logged in to use this feature.
