Not Receiving Security Code Text Messages Anymore

As of the last couple of times I have tried to login I've been told to enter my security code, which has been texted to me, for it to never arrive. I'm in the UK, and it's always worked before. Any ideas?

 

If I try the website or the app, it's the same.

Resend makes no difference.

I can login with my personal details instead but I've always used security code no problem until now

 

Thanks in advance

how can my wife do your suggestion while she even can not login to do message you?? we already try many times,

and I dont understand your suggestion about linking to the card, this is not the car or linking the card issue. this is about we didn't received sms while we login using security code , do ou understand the situtation or not?

just focus about: when my wife login to her paypal account using her email address then paypal will send sms for securit code to her phone number, but the sms or security never eve come to her mobile. again do you understand this???

if you still dont understand, just give your paypal telephone number or customer service the i can speak directly by phone . unless other customer service don't have or cannot be contat by phone as usual.

you still don't get it do you? my wife can not message you , BECAUSE SHE CAN NOT LOGIN. BECAUSE SHE CAN NOT RECEVED SECURITY CODE TO HER MOBILE. IF SHE CAN NOT LOGIN HOW SHE CAN SEND YOU A MESSAGE. IF THESE EXPLAINATION YOU GUYS STILL DON'T GET IT. I WILL INFORME TO ALL PEOPLE , DO NOT CREATE SECURITY CODE TO ANY MOBILE OR HANDPHONE NUMBER SINCE ALL CUSTOMER SERVICE OR ALL STAFF OF PAYPAL DON'T UNDERSTAND AT ALL ABOUT THEIR OWN PRODUCT AND SERVICE. THANK YOU FOR NOT GIVE ANY SOLUTION.

AGAIN THIS IS NOT ABOUT PASSWORD ISSUE, THIS IS ABOUT YOUR SIDE CAN NOT SEND ANY SMS OF SCURITY CODE.

1. Go to our website 2. Click "CONTACT" at the bottom of page 3. Click " Password and account access" 4. Click "Message Us" at the bottom of the page NOOOO MESSAGE US , CHECK AGAIN YOUR TUTORIAL 5. Click "Chat with us about your password issue"

There is an option for your wife to contact us without logging in and open a chat as a guest user. The steps provided must be done on the website and does not require to login. We are not able to pull up her account from this chat and you need to open a chat as a guest user.

 

I just tried to go to PayPal Indonesia website and have clicked Contact at the bottom of the page and scroll down. I can see Message us as one of the option. Please use a guest chat servicing to help with your wife's account. Thank you.
