I don't receive a text message to perform two factor authentication

Learn what to do if you don't receive the SMS code for two-factor authentication in Accountable.

Written by Simon

If you don't receive the SMS for two-factor authentication, there are a few steps you can take to resolve it. Accountable uses Strong Customer Authentication (SCA), a form of multi-factor authentication, to protect sensitive operations on your account by sending a confirmation code via SMS.

​

If you don't receive a text message, you can:

  1. Scan a QR code with the camera on your mobile device to consent to the operation.

  2. Resend the SMS to request a new code.

If neither of those options works:

  1. Check your SMS spam folder, as the message may have been filtered there.

  2. Restart your device to reconnect it to the nearest cell tower.

  3. Make sure you have a good signal, then click Retry.

If you still cannot complete authentication after trying these steps, contact us via the chat and we will handle your case with the highest priority.
