Many users encounter issues when trying to verify their Outlook account, especially when verification emails or SMS codes fail to arrive. This issue can be caused by outdated recovery information, poor internet connectivity, or a temporary outage on Microsoft’s servers. If you're not getting the verification email, check your spam or junk folders. For phone verification, ensure your mobile number is active and able to receive messages. Also, check if your inbox is full, which can block new messages. Using a different device or browser may help, especially if browser extensions or ad blockers are interfering with the process. Clear your browser’s cache and cookies, then try again. It’s also recommended to use Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome for best compatibility. If the issue persists, use Microsoft’s official account recovery form and follow the guided steps to verify your identity manually. Staying updated with recovery options like backup email and phone number ensures your account remains secure and accessible.
