Hello @Aviv_ez
Welcome to our community forum and thank you for your post!
I completely understand your concern here. To deliver a secure service, the access and confirmation codes will be sent to your registered mobile number. If you don't have access to your registered mobile number, you can update your current phone number in your PayPal account.
I hope this helps!

Thank you sir for your fast answer.
The point is that I don't have a new number. (e.g. - while arriving to a new country (work/pleasure) and I don't buy local SIM card)
I'm available with same number via Wi-Fi only (for e.g. - What's up call or texting).
But so far so good, my solution is by sending code by 3rd application installed in my mobile (Microsoft Authentication app)
thank you again very much!
