Hello HEADshr1nker,

I'm not receiving the verification code via SMS.
- Make sure that you have a strong cellular network connection on your phone.
- Make sure that your phone number can receive SMS messages. You can do this by asking someone to send you a text message.
- Make sure that the correct phone number is associated with your account:
- In iOS 8, tap Settings > iCloud > Keychain > Advanced. In iOS 7, tap Settings > iCloud > Account > Keychain. Make sure the phone number under Verification Number is correct. If not, enter another phone number.
- In OS X Mavericks v10.9, choose Apple () > System Preferences. Click iCloud, then click Account Details. Make sure the phone number under Verification number is correct. If not, enter another phone number.
If you can't access a device that has iCloud Keychain enabled, contact Apple Support and verify your identity to get help completing iCloud Keychain setup.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
