Hi there! I’m trying to create a profile as a freelancer, and the text isn’t being sent to verify my phone number. I’ve triple checked and I’ve put the correct number in. How can I get my phone number verified?

I'm trying to register my phone number to my account but it keeps telling me that my number is already in use with another account. Can this be fixed?

Hello, I am creating an account as a freelancer and I'm on the final step. It tells me my phone number is in use, but that shouldn't be the case. Now I am stuck and cannot seem to continue.

Hi. My name is Dilshod. I'm a freelancer.  I'm want to verify the telephone number.

Hi Dilshod,

 

Phone verification isn't an option available for all users on Upwork. If you are required, you will receive a notification requesting you to do so. Thank you.

I signed up for the wrong account, I signed up for a client account instead of a freelancer account. I closed the client account and opened a freelancer account but now it says that my phone number is being used by another account. 

 

How can I fix this?

I want to add for account verification my phone (one linked to PE) but I can't add it due to invalid country code.

Thank you, Bojan but I don't have changes after I clear cache - to be specific - I want to edit a "span.country-code"  element but it is locked and I can't edit it.

I created my account yesterday and it says my phone number is being used by another account--I used to have a different Upwork account that I went in and deleted yesterday, but it still won't let me put my phone number in my new (this) account.
