iCloud verification code does not send to Android phone

Hi, I just got a 2017 iMac, I am struggling to resolve a problem. I am trying to verify my phone number to access iCloud and it simply does not send. I tried text messaging and prompting it to call me. What am I doing wrong?

As per this article Two-factor authentication for Apple ID - Apple Support

What if I don’t have access to a trusted device or didn't receive a verification code?

If you're signing in and don’t have a trusted device handy that can display verification codes, you can have a code sent to your trusted phone number via text message or an automated phone call instead. Click Didn't Get a Code on the sign in screen and choose to send a code to your trusted phone number. You can also get a code directly from Settings on a trusted device. Learn how to get a verification code.

You are clicking on call me inspite of getting text me , an automated call will come to your trusted number ( it could be your land line number or mobile number what ever you have added ) and speaking verification code for your 2FA account .
