It's a pretty low bar. I think if you know SSN you are good to go to do anything at Tmo, including a number port. Which means phone as a 2fa is very easy to beat.
- joseda-hg 4y agoI was about to freak out, then I remembered that there's no ID in the US I can't change anything about my phone without providing both a "Public" (Taxpayer Code: Doesn't change, commonly shared, also used as a state bank account number) and "Private" (Document number: changes per renovation, only shared for identification purposes) number
- kube-system 4y agoWell, it's not so much that there's "no ID" as much as it is that we have hundreds of IDs. Some carriers in the US have you set a PIN number for phone porting. Although, people still forget them.
- brianwawok 4y agoYou provide a SSN and they will give you the porting pin (or let you pick it more likely)
