Dear all,
I'm at a loss right now. I tried to log into an old account of mine which I haven't used in at least 4 years. The login itself worked but then I'd have to enter a 6 digit code which was sent to all former connected devices which aren't in my possession anymore. Is there a way to get this code otherwise or how am I going to be able to log into my account again? Every help is much appreciated!

- LPH2 years agoExplorer | Level 3Hello Walter,
Thanks for reaching out. Sadly this solution isn't ideal. Is it possible to receive a verification code via my phone number or to a new mail address? I still remember my login data for the account and am able to login. The only problem is the 6 digit code. But since I don't have access to the old mail address the only option is to receive the code otherwise.
I hope you can help me out with this matter. Thanks in advance.
