A user is based out in Thailand (Country code 66) and is getting repeated errors while setting up the MFA. We tried removing the extra "0" from the number but still the same issue

Problem: When trying to add a mobile number for SMS or call verification in Microsoft Authenticator, the process fails with the error message: “We ran into a problem. Please try again.”

Correlation ID Example: 311ee978-0970-4219-bdce-3ba859c3c777 Timestamp: 2025-11-20T10:00:05Z

We have tried other number from other tenants and same issue persists.

The user has used the same number before and was getting the code nut not this time.

When we enter a different number from a different country, it works fine Please help and advise
