How to fix the "That verification method isn't working right now. Please try another method."

My account is locked so i was asked to use another verification method, which required me to add phone number. I did but it still shows "Try another verification method

That verification method isn't working right now. Please try another method."

 

"The verification method isn't working" fix when you don't have another verification method

In microsoft account "*** Email address is removed for privacy ***" , the account is locked. When I tried to unlock it through the verification code sent in SMS, it says "The Verification method isn't working right now. Please try another method." But the problem is I only had the phone number as the method of verification due to which I can't login into my window.

 

How to fix "Try another verification method, that verification method isn't working right now. Please try another method."

Hello Sefkoo,

Good Day!!

I am Ramya. Thanks for Reaching Out.

The message "That verification method isn't working right now. Please try another method" usually indicates that the verification process via phone number is temporarily unavailable.

Please try with Different Verification Methods:

a.Clear Browser Cache and Cookies:

Sometimes, clearing your browser's cache and cookies can resolve these issues. After clearing them, try the verification process again.

b. Alternative Verification method.

If you have an alternative verification method set up, such as a secondary email address or security questions, try using that method instead.

c. Try a Different Browser or Incognito Mode:

There might be an issue with your browser. Try using the Edge browser then opening an incognito/private browsing window and attempt the process again.

d. Check the Phone Number:

Ensure that the phone number you are trying to use isn't already associated with another account. Some services do not allow a phone number to be linked to multiple accounts.
