I’m wanting to buy a new iPhone for my daughter as hers is no longer working. I sent her iPhone in for repair to Apple, they reported that it’s repair would be expensive. I opted to have them recycle her iPhone, so we no longer have it.
My issue has to do with the verification code sent from Apple as part of the buying procedure. Since her phone is no longer in our possession, I can’t receive the code to purchase the new one. Suggestions?

Hello Modesto Bruce,
Than, you for using apple Support Communities.
I understand that you are replacing your daughter's iPhone but are not able to received the verification code as she no longer has access to the old phone. I would recommend the following support article for the options to receive the verification code. If the presented options do not work for you, there is an option to request account recovery at the bottom of the article.
