Question

can't sign in to my account, lost access to phone number

I'm posting from a temporary account because I can't sign in to my real one.

My password was reset and two-step verification is enabled on my account. The phone number on file is an old Ecuadorian number I no longer have access to and cannot recover. I have access to my email, but Adobe requires a second method.

I have an active, paid Lightroom subscription and years of professional photography work in my cloud storage. I'm a working photographer and this is my archive.

I've tried the support chat — it won't let me in because I can't sign in. I've called the phone line and the automated system disconnects me every time.

I can verify my identity with my billing card, billing address, invoices, and account details. I'm asking for help removing the old phone number so I can regain access.

Can someone from Adobe please reach out?

    Do you see this on the Creative Cloud sign in page after entering your email address?

    (I get my code sent to an email.)

    If this is not successful you will need to contact Adobe Support using this temporary account. Most volunteers in these forums have no access to subscription problems.
