Hello.
I have no access to my phone number, but I have full access to my account email address ... when I'm trying to log into my account, I see PSD2 page with

Only "phone verification" option !!!! Even when I try to pay .... I contacted the Support department in Facebook and nothing !

I currently reside outside of the US. This means I don't have a US phone number. My US bank account is already connected to my US paypal account, but I can't transfer money from my bank account to my paypal simply because paypal can't text me. From my current, non-US mobile device, I can log into my paypal account, see my balance, send money. The compulsory mobile phone verification policy is unacceptable. I don't live in the US right now, but I'm still a US citizen with a US bank account and a US paypal. Why can't email or a non-US phone number suffice for verification? It certainly can't just be for security purposes, at least not for mine. I can for example, do my US banking online without my bank insisting on a mobile phone verification. What is the deal? Why is such a reasonable request such an impossible obstacle?

Dear staff,

Somebody has sent a payment to my PayPal account but I cannot access it because I do not have the phone number required for 2 step verification. It is my mother's old home phone number which she changed around 12-13 years ago. Please can you help me either disable this 2 step verification or change the phone number for receiving the code to my current mobile number?

Best regards,

Ross MacEwan
