Verify Contact Information

I am in the process of updating our account information and when I go to setup a new auto pay method, I am getting an error that my contact information needs to be verified. I just changed the mobile number on the account to a new number so maybe this is why I am getting the error.

@Kellynarantic Thanks for reaching out to us via Forums. I would be more than happy to help figure out how to get your payment method updated. Just to confirm, are you logged in using the Primary or the account Manager's profile?

@Kellynarantic It seems that the error you're encountering is due to the need to verify your new contact information. When setting up a new autopay method, you must confirm your identity by entering a six-digit code sent to your trusted contact method. Since you've recently changed your mobile number, ensure that the new number is correctly updated in your account. Once verified, you should be able to proceed with setting up your autopay method without issues.  Click the link below for more info.
