Good Evening Everyone,

I am trying to set up my Upwork freelancer profile and I can NOT complete the phone verification step. I try to continue and it never sends the code to my phone. I have tried multiple browsers on my computer, multiple browsers on my phone, the Upwork app, and it never sends the code.

Please let me know what I need to do to get my profile up and running. Thank you.

Very Respectfully,

Zack H. Brady

Hi! When I type in my phone number for text verification it is saying it is in use but I have never signed up before! Anyone know how I can get around this?

Hello, I'm trying to complete my account and I cannot get a phone number verification code. I enter my number, click the "verify phone number" button and immediately get a warning message that I "Failed to verify phone number." No code sent to my phone. Seems like a website glitch.
