I was trying to get my phone number off my old account that my brother was using, but every time I try to add my phone number its keep saying "That verification method isn't working right now. Please try another method", and the tab says "Blocked", and at first I thought my account was block [for Some reason], but I could still sign in, Then i tryed to refresh a few times. but that also didnt work, and the thing is I can put the phone number, back on the other account, but not on the other one i'm trying to get it on.

2024-12-01T11:23:07+00:00 None of this has worked for me. I am trying to recover a hotmail account which is locked and just going round in circles. The text message won't come through but then it won't give me an alternative way. I can't contact Microsoft. I have done the recovery form which said it has been verified. I click the link and it then says I've requested too many codes but this was the first request in over 24 hours. Even when I get past that it then said I need to request a text and again it then says this method isn't working right now and right back round again. I really need access to this email address especially at this time of year. I have cleared cache/cookies, I have done incognito mode, I have done this on Microsoft edge and Google Chrome. I am running out of options and really don't know where to turn to next. The self help won't work on the microsoft page, it just says checking and the little circle goes round and round. What else can I do?
