Btw whoever had issues like me and couldn’t detach an old mobile number and add a new one.
Go download the battle net app and add Authenticator in the app. Now when you try to remove the old phone number you can confirm it with the battle net Authenticator. I added my new number, logged into COD received my sms and confirmed. Now I can play again

Did anyone fix this? Still having this issue, smh
It’s been like 3 days for me and still won’t receive new SMS Code or tech help
I found a solution. First I had an iPhone phone number linked, then I changed it to a Samsung, but the default messaging system of the phone was google, I changed it to the Samsung messaging system and entered the game to send me the code, I got the code without problem. I hope this helps some of you. It took me 3 days to do everything that has been said on forums and other sites, the bots of battle.net didn’t help at all
I wish I could but I need SMS so can change number but it says too many attempts smh
Will there be a response from the developers? I haven’t been able to play for days

There are some restrictions on the phone number you can use. Not sure if it applies to anyone here.
Eligibility & Limitations
Battle.net Phone Notifications are designed for text-enabled mobile phones:
- Messaging apps like iMessage (iOS) or WhatsApp (iOS, Android) are not supported.
- Phone notifications cannot be used with Voice over IP (VoIP), and VoIP numbers that are transferred to a local provider are not eligible for the service.
A phone number can only be attached to one Battle.net Account.

So before that, we somehow tied the number to the game. The settings in the phone have not changed at all
Hello , i had the same problem for 3 days then i tried this and it Worked
1-Battlenet account settings
2- Go to Privacy & Communication
3-Scroll down to COMMUNICATION PREFERENCES and enable [ SMS Account Alerts ]
Good luck all <3
hey guys i am wondering if anyone has had the same issue as me. I bought the game on battle net durring launch and everything has been working fine. but then two days ago it has asked me to verify my phone number which was no problem until I could not get the code from battle net. I then decided to re put in my phone number on my account which went smooth and they sent me a code through my phone with no problem but then when I try to verify after launching MW3 it will not send me a code. Blizzards ticket system is a joke and barley responds and when they do its something ive already tried and then I wait another 8 hours.

this is ridiculous, i have no issue getting verification when i add and remove my number on the battlenet website. this is definitely not the fix. its upon launching the game that you do not receive a verification code.
