Hello J-Bents,


We know it’s important to be able to access your Apple ID, and want to help. If you don’t have access to the trusted number, we recommend attempting to use a trusted device instead.


Please follow the steps here, including starting account recovery as the last step: Get a verification code and sign in with two-factor authentication


You mentioned not having an older trusted device, but we still recommend reviewing the resource. We hope it helps. Take care!
