my suggestion to all , never use your mobile or phone number to get security code. it happens to my wife paypal account too. and these are the correspondence to staff of paypal that seems don't understand about their own product and services:
Hi! I'm your PayPal Assistant. Just ask me a question and I'll try to find an answer.

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.
