Well, something seems weird with the number you entered...what do you think it is.
Also, aren't you a little short for a Storm Trooper? You have to use a a real photo or you are going to get banned.

I am creating a freelance profile, but cannot verify my account via text, as I'm traveling in Vietnam and w/o cell phone access at the moment. Can I verify my identity through email or another means?

Hello everyone. I recently registered on UpWork. I have a problem with my phone number verification. I've verified my phone number once, but it didn't work. Now I have this:
Then when I push "Go to Enter Code", I get this:
When I click the "Resend" button, I don't get any message. If I click "Change", I get the same result as on the first image.

I am in the midst of completing my profile. Upwork has asked me to verify my phone number. Upwork states that my phone number is in use already. I have no other accounts. Please assist in verifying my phone number.

I am trying to make a new Upwork account since my previous account kept leading me to an error screen. I am setting up my profile but can't get past phone number verification since I am using the same number as I was on the other account and am getting the message:
"This number is being used by another account. Please provide a different number."
It is the only number that I currently have and I really want to make an account so any help with this would be appreciated.

Creating multiple accounts is a violation of Upwork ToS.
You will need to work with Customer Service to eliminate the second or other additional accounts, and use only the first account that you created.
Oct 1, 2019 05:58:48 PM by Genesis Q
I agree, customer service actually deleted my previous account (I was able to start a new one again with the same email). Just a bit confused as to why they wouldn't let me do the same with my phone number.

Good day,
I was abroad without my cell phone service when I first attempted to sign up for upwork. When I got to verifying my cell phone, it sent me the text, which I obviously didn't get because I was on a trip abroad.
Now, back in the states, it tells me:
I don't have another phone number so I was hoping someone could assist me with resetting this so I can verify my phone number.
Thank you!
