To the person who suggested getting a cheap cellphone to use just for texts - you are missing the point. There should be a way to get a code sent via message to your landline phone without being forced to purchase even a "cheap" cellphone. There USED to be a way to do that, but they choose not to do it that way anymore, because they are assuming that EVERYONE has a cellphone. And "cheap" is a relative term. Some people live paycheck to paycheck and even a "cheap" cellphone is out of their budget. Especially elderly people on a fixed income.

I'm having the same problem - cannot log in unless I have a cellphone that can receive a code for verification. I was able to call the number on the back of my credit card and pay my account, but I cannot get into Paypal because my cellphone is a Consumer Cellular flip phone that does not have texting or Internet, I can only make and receive phone calls on it. So now I cannot get into my account at all. And it's Friday evening so I can't even call their customer service for assistance. Why did they do this? Do they think EVERYONE has a smartphone?

It's never taken this long before, and I need that money to pay a bill.
