Hello,

I am trying to complete my profile, and every time I enter my correct and active phone number for a verification code, I am met with a message that states, “! Something went wrong. Please try again later.” I found other topics with similar issues but none of the information was helpful, they were only told that they would be personally contacted by an Upwork representative.

Thanks for your help,
Dylan Prince

I was a Freelancer on Elance (prior it becoming UpWork).  Now, I am unable to create a new profile on Upwork due to the message "This number is being used by another account".  How can I resolve this matter quickly,

Hi there, I've tried various browsers but the text message to verify my account is not coming through. Can someone help me with this so I can complete my profile?

 

Thanks so much.

PS. It seems as though hundreds of people have had this same issue... https://community.upwork.com/t5/New-to-Upwork/I-didn-t-receive-a-text-message-verification-code/td-p...
Should this be looked into by the developers rather than making support tickets each time? I feel sorry for the folks in the support team having to fix this on an individual basis. That's some serious triaging mis-management.
