Hello,
My account is old and is verified. I haven't logged in for a long time so I don't have a mobile number setup for it.
Today I logged in normally, added a new email address to my account, but I can't log back in afterward. Using either the old email address or the newly added email address to login result in the same error message. Trying to reset password also results in the same exact error message (screenshot below). I can't use the customer support feature because it also requires logging in.
Anyone knows how to fix this? How can I contact support?
Thanks!
