Hey mosi3311, thanks for reaching out to us about this, and sorry to hear that you're having trouble.
Could you let me know the precise message you get, when you try to log into your account? Feel free to send a few screenshots my way too (just make sure none of your personal info is shown there).
Also, if I understand correctly, you still have access to the email address linked to the account, right?
Let me know more!

Sorry to jump in here, mosi3311, but where did you send your email?
Did you contact our support team and open a support ticket? If so, can you send us the ticket number, so we can look it up in our system?

Hi Future ndlovu, if I understand correctly, you're also having an issue accessing your account, because you've lost your phone.
Have you checked this article with some relevant info?
If nothing helps, I would suggest opening a support request with our team. You can do so, by following these steps:
- Open a private browsing/incognito window and go to this page.
- Choose your issue type and fill out the rest of the form.
- Click "submit".
I hope this helps!
