How to fix the "That verification method isn't working right now. Please try another method" screen.

Hi, I have tried again and again for using the verification method by SMS and it says it constantly says it is not available. There is no other way to recover my account. I have used various methods such as clearing my browser cache, using other browsers or internet connections etc. but it gives the same error again. The sms method is the only method setup on my account, and despite putting all the correct details (including the password and the phone number) I am sitll unable to access my account.

I have critical information saved on my account and unfortunately, I am unable to access it. Crucial websites are also linked to it, such as linkedin, facebook etc. and it is of significant importance that I recover this amount.

I have tried to talk to an agent or contact microsoft support but unfortunately there is no way that can happen.

Please help me out over here by reaching out to my alternative email (which I am using right now). It is of utmost importance that I recover my original email, thanks.

Hey derrick,

Tried all these thing but still not able to log in to the account. Can you please help. We are able to reset the password multiple times but not able to sign in even after password has been changed.

Same here.

I have tried all the possibilities. But still it doesn’t work. Even though i remember the recent Set Emails, Old Password, Personal Information but still it doesn’t. I tried same phone which one i’m always using to login. Same laptop. But still doesn’t work. I tried to make a gap of a week to login again but no use. Kindly help me if someone knows.

Same issue, stuck in a loop and none of the advice works. Microsoft support is non-existent, I'm paying for software I cannot use.
