I didn't receive a text message verification code

[Edward H]

I have a cell phone from outside the country and it's not receiving the verification text from Upwork. How can I get around this?

Set your location to your real country.

Hi Petra,

I'm in the US and I've got myself set up in the US, but the phone # itself is from Poland. When I tried to change over to my old address Poland, it just told me that it can't find my location.

Edward, if you live in the US, would it not make sense to have a US phone number?

My phone number says it cannot be verified saying it is being used by another account but this can't be correct because this is my first time creating an account.

Hi! It says a different account is connected to my phone number even though I don't remember making another account? Could you unattach the number?
