youtube won't recognize my mobile phone number.
Hi:
Forgive me for being so stupid. I want to sign up (register) in www.youtube.com and they ask me for a mobile phone number to send me a text message. I begin the phone number with the prefix 15, which in my country is used for all cellular phones (which I think is the same as a mobile phone). However, they reply with the following message: Code:
This phone number format is not recognized. Please check the country and number. |
They may not recognize country codes comes to mind, but easier way is just sign up for a gmail account and login using that... (to login to youtube)
|
Thank you rweaver.

When did youtube start demanding a phone number? Nosy gits. I registered a good few years ago and am pretty sure I never had to do that. Many people want to keep their "web life" somewhat separate from their "real life". Any site other than a shopping site that demands (as opposed to merely requests) my phone number for me to register is one I will not be registering with).

It was yesterday. I also was annoyed by this demand. But as I had never before seen the posibility of hearing so much music for free, except for the lengthly process of downloading .FLAC files, etc, I gave them the number, although they didn't called. What's a nosy git? Thanks for your reply.
Enrique. |
