Sounds like you may need to add a Trusted Device.

  1. Go here: Manage Two-Factor Authentication for your Apple ID from iPhone - Apple Support
  2. Scroll to: Add another device as a trusted device


To Get the Phone Number Changed...

Contact Apple Support: Ask the Apple Rep to modify it over the phone. If permitted to do so, then inform to modify the Phone Number associated to your Apple Account, to what it should be. Important: Perform a Trial & Error login session with the Apple Rep prior to ending the phone call.

  • Proceed from there as Necessary
  • Why the Wait: Phone calls are taking a bit to go through at the moment, due to lots of calls. With the Coronavirus Pandemic, many are at home at the moment, with much time on their hands to contact Apple. So, just stay on the line, and you will get through :)
