    Hey,

    I was setting up my Unity Connect website yesterday and the Two Factor Authentication popped up asking me to secure my account even more, i was like "why not?", i entered my phone number and received an sms with a code, 2 actually, no idea why, but it was from 2 number: +4475090333278 and +4475090053555.

    Today i got an email notification reminding me to review an asset that i bought 4 days ago on the assetStore, and again i was like "why not? its a great asset let's give it 5 stars", i went to login, and unity is asking me to enter a code that it supposedly sent to my phone, well, I DIDN'T GET ANYTHING!! i pressed the "Re-send code" buttons a dozen of time now, nothing is coming, there is an option to use use "recovery code" which i don't even know what is it or how to get it.

    * I don't have access to my dashboard to setup the required Analytics which i need done for work TODAY
    * I can't access collaborate to pull or push any needed change!

    This broken system totally messed up my workflow and am very pissed off right now...

    EDIT:
    I just got a collection of SMS all at the same time... and am almost sure its not my phone provider cause my mobile internet was running fine when i was trying to login, i just disabled the TFA for good.

    Thanks

    The SMS 2FA issue was fixed earlier today (7/31 PDT), apologies on the inconvenience.

    Thank you but this is really the kind of issues where it should be extremely highlighted everywhere, like write in big bold red text in unity connect saying that "we are currently working on a fix, so DO NOT ACTIVATE 2FA"

    I don't want to sound rude but a lot of us make their living using unity, and being locked out of the platform is the worst nightmare ever.

    It's not fixed apparently because i just tried to login and it's asking me to verify using a code you've sent me... but i NEVER ENABLED 2 Factor Authentication. What am i supposed to do now? I have an update to push.

    Already made a post at another thread but looks like this one is the most up to date one, can't access my account as I never receive the code on my phone like many of you guys here.

    Sent support an E-mail, they then told me to send my phone number to reset it then they disappeared and didn't get a reply. Opened another support ticket now.

    I opened a ticked and confirmed some information they asked, and they got 2FA disabled for me.

    One thing to notice: I initially replied via email, but it seems the replies didn't go through to zendesk. It's best to click the link in the email and reply directly from the zendesk interface.
