You can also use your email address with iMessage and FaceTime. Sign in to your Apple ID account page and review all the email addresses you have on file, including the one that you're trying to verify. If the email address is incorrect, you can update it. Then click Resend next to the email address that you want to verify.
FaceTime isn't available in all countries or regions.

Yes, I did. It still didn't work. Moreover, the above link explains the steps only about activating through mobile number. My issue is regarding activation with Apple ID.
Thanks. I'll probably check with the Apple support team
You're welcome 🙂
Good Luck!
