Paypal security problem

This is quite bizarre but...I logged in accidentally from another IP on my stealth acc and now they require the security check. The problem is I put a fake phone number there so I can't receive the code.
I was trying to contact them, but you can only email them when you are logged in, and once I log in I can't get past the security check and whenever I want to go to contact us it logs me out. So wtf, I want to contact them to change my phone number but can't. What do I do

Is calling the only option here?

You should be able to change the verification method by selecting, 'I don't have my phone with me'.

I would recommend you calling PayPal by clicking onto Contact us on any PayPal page as they will be able to help you confirm the email address.

Rip stealth PayPal. Don't set fake numbers.

Shoulda thought of that before using the "fake" phone number.

If it's giving you that error when sendin money, just send low payments (under 50) every time and you're gucci

He can't do anything

He can't even log in to the account because of the security check.

rip in pepperonis, sorry. Just contact support and pray.

Is there a reason you can't call?

This one is a lost cause...I called, but I never saved the details (which I always do) like the phone number, address etc so that failed. Awful mistake, I dont think anything can be done anymore.

You failed again after calling them?

Another reason to ditch paypal.

You are fucked then, if you dont even have the details, would just have been a simple copy paste

Sorry :/
