Windows 10: Shared Experiences Verify problem

Hi,
I keep getting emails from MS saying security alert asking me to recover my account. I am asked to fill out the last four digits of my phone number for verification but when I do this I get the following message. "There's a temporary problem with the service. Please try again. If you continue to get this message, try again later."
I have been trying to verify my account for several days but keep getting this reply. How do I get out of this catch 22?

I thank in advance all who offer help.

Thanks John

Sometimes I get to enter code which is the next page after the above. I then wait for MS or someone to reply by phone but nobody phones me.

Hi,

Shared Experience

Hi Zyxian,

By default, Shared experiences feature
is turned on in Windows 10, and your device is set to share or receive from your own devices only. But if you wish, you can disable it or change the settings. Here are the steps on how to have it disabled:

• Click
  Start.
• Select
  Settings.
• Click
  System.
• Select the Shared experiences link on the left-hand side.
  Here you will see a switch that lets you toggle the Share across devices feature to the On or Off position. If you do not think you will feel the need to share your experiences, you may if you wish, turn off this feature by toggling
  the switch to the Off position.

Do let us know if you need any other assistance.

Regards.
