I clicked "add phone number" on manage how to sign in with microsoft. I then added my phone number and recieved no text. I resent the code and yet recieved no text. I restarted my phone, reset the wifi and looked at other articles with people having this problem. Nothing helped. Please don't send me the microsoft help page on this issue because that hasn't fixed the problem.

    Hello Aronas,

    Good to see you in Microsoft Community.

    I suggest you try adding the phone number again by following the steps below:

    1. Sign in to Manage how you sign in to Microsoft. If you’re having issues signing in to your Microsoft account, see Microsoft account help for more info.
    2. Select Add emailor Add phone number.
    3. Follow the instructions to add a new email address or phone number to your Microsoft account aliases.

    I recommend that you visit the above link in your phone's browser (using cellular, not WiFi) to add a phone number, which theoretically excludes other distractions and allows the same ISP (Internet Service Provider) to minimize latency.

    If anything is unclear, please do not hesitate to let me know.

    Best Regards,

    I finally solved this issue for myself so I'm just providing what worked in case it helps anyone else:

    The problem was that I had my phone number set as a profile alias on an old Hotmail account I didn't use anymore. Once I was able to regain access to that account, I removed the phone number and was able to successfully add it to my current @outlook.com account that I use.

    What's crazy is that I had many contacts with Microsoft support about this and no one could figure it out/help. I am kindly requesting Microsoft send me $100k for my consulting fee. Thank you.

    D'accord, mais comment as-tu su à quel compte ton numéro était associé ?

    Okay, but how did you know account your number was associated with ?
