Just for the record. I do have my Apple ID password and a trusted device, lost my recovery key.
However I dont get any verification code into my trusted device. Called Apple help line thet said: Thats weird, you do have an active registered iphone but you don't get the codes. Sorry we can't really do anything about it.
Basically I'm locked out my Apple account in which I have 1500 + purchased songs plus Mac OS updates, etc.
Conclusion: Big fail, they seem to have released this feature just to say the "have tight access security options" however nodoby actually did the correct trial to see what could go wrong, even worse the only thing that can be fixed that I know is death, they should allow me for instance perhaps prove credit card ownership, etc and let me recover my account (specially since their system failed).
Regards!
