    "It looks like someone else is using your account"

    I've changed my email address and phone number without being locked out from my account. Maybe it is the way you did it, IIRC, I added my new contact info and verified them before removing the old ones. Have you tried going to the web site to check and/or
    change your settings there?

    Good luck!

    Locked Account Without a Phone Number

    I would definitely do that but unfortunately with all the social distancing stuff going around, I can’t use a friends phone. That and my parents aren’t the greatest people in the world too.

    Locked Account Without a Phone Number

    It’s not the password I’m having issues with. I’m having issues with my account getting locked fro security purposes. It wants me to put in a phone number to get a recovery code from the text or voice message. However, I don’t have a phone like, at all.
    I’ve also already tried to reset my password, which did change but I’m still security locked.
