Trouble with creating Apple ID

I am trying to create an apple id for my mom. I first used her phone number but when it came to phone verification, I entered the number and it keeps saying that password should include numbers and letters. I am confused as this is a verification code, why does it ask for letters? I tried using my phone number and it happens the same.


What should I do to fix this problem and create an apple id for my mom?

From the article below.


When you create a new password, keep the following in mind:

  • Your new Apple ID password must contain at least eight characters, a number, an uppercase letter, and a lowercase letter. 
  • You can't use spaces, the same character three times in a row, your Apple ID, or a password you've used in the last year.
