Unable to receive security code and lost backup codes

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi all,
    I have full permission to access a registered email of my WordPress account, but cannot sign in. The system asked for either security code or 1 of 10 backup codes. The trouble is that:
    1, There was no security code sent to my mobile phone. Many efforts, always failed. In 2018, my phone number was changed from (+84)167******* into (+84)37******* following the policy of Vietnam Government. It is likely a reason, but not sure.
    2, I lost all 10 backup codes
    3, I failed to summit the ‘Account Recover’ form to the support of WordPress, due to lack of Transaction ID and Activation URL. I was told to recover a new password. I did that, but still could not access the account, because of missing the security code and backup code.
    Hope that anyone helps me.
    Thank you very much.

  • Hi Jason,

    do you still have access to the email with which you created the account? If so, please write an email from that address to passwordhelp@wordpress.com. Our Account Recovery team will get back to you.
