Too many verification codes have been sent. Enter the last code you received, use one of your devices or try again later.

I manage several Apple IDs for development purposes, and interestingly, they all share a common trusted contact number. This includes my personal Apple ID, which I've configured to receive SMS messages from Apple for 2-factor authentication. However, over the past few days, I've encountered a frustrating issue where I'm unable to log in to any of my work-related Apple IDs. Each attempt results in an error message stating, "Too many verification codes have been sent. Enter the last code you received, use one of your devices, or try again later." The silver lining is that my personal Apple ID remains accessible, as I can reliably receive the authentication code on my trusted device.

This situation has left me perplexed, and I'm actively seeking a solution to regain access to my work-related Apple IDs. If you have any insights or suggestions on how to resolve this issue, I would greatly appreciate your assistance.

I have two questions

1) How can I enable two-factor authentication for multiple Apple ID on a single trusted device?

2) For what reason I'm receiving this error as I have never tried to generated too many codes and never received it on my device, also like the number assosiated to this account cannot be added as a trusted contact number to any other account, so I presume is my number blacklisted or is it some bug as I have seen multiple post on social media related to this issue.
