Hello asri_andrew,


It sounds like you are trying to make a purchase, but the two-step verification code is being sent to your old number. You can update your number using these steps:

Adding or Removing SMS Numbers

To add or remove an SMS-capable number from your account:

  1. Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com), click "Manage your Apple ID," and sign in.
  2. Under Edit Your Apple ID, select "Password and Security."
  3. Under Trusted Devices, select Manage.
  4. Click Add to enter a new SMS-capable number for your Apple ID.
  5. Click Remove next to the verified phone number associated with your Apple ID.
