Cannot update my phone number

Hello,

I cannot update my phone number now as the silly form will only accept mobile numbers.

I cannot use a mobile so my phone calls have to go to my old number which does not exist.

 

When did not using a mobile number become compulsary?

 

Thank you

John hardy

for 2fa i believe mobiles are required.

 

otherwise your message is confusing.  you indicate in the first sentence you need a mobile and in the last sentence you need a non-mobile.  regardless of what you wrote, you need a mobile for 2fa.

The first line is correct

I cannot update my phone number now as the silly form will only accept mobile numbers.

Second Line should read

The comment should say as I am not able to use a mobile.

I have in the past use a land line number but now the form will not accept my land line number.

I hope this clarifies my position?

Thank you

John
