The issue in GetHuman2347897's own words
* factor authentication to access my user account for billing, etc is broken. Both my wife’s and my phone numbers are ***-***-****, and every time I try to access my account and get prompted for the * factor authentication text, my wife gets the text and not me. It doesn’t matter which number I pick:****-***-****or****-***-*****My wife gets the text every time. I am geographically separated from my wife at the moment, so this extremely inconvenient for me. This needs to be fixed permanently.**My phone number is ***-***-**** (primary) and my wife’s phone number is ***-***-****.
