Troubleshooting Common Verification Issues
Encountering a hiccup? Most problems have simple solutions. Here’s what to do if you face an issue while trying to bypass verification.
Did Not Receive the SMS Code
If the OTP doesn't arrive within a minute, first try refreshing the page on our website. If that doesn't work, release the number and select a different one. Network congestion can sometimes cause delays, and a fresh number often solves the problem immediately.
The Number is Already in Use
Occasionally, a temporary number may have been used by someone else previously. Our platform regularly cleans and refreshes its number pool, but if you encounter this, simply choose another available South African number to proceed.
