Inability to receive a phone call for two factor authentication

Ive seen some people say they have to power off their phone and restart it, then the texts will show up.....Im so sick of all the technological glitches, I could scream!

I’ve always clicked No when offered to sign up for PS MFA….. nope… ain’t gonna do it…

I spend 1/2 the day logging into dozens of protected sites with MFA email, text,  phone, authenticator apps, and passkeys….the other 1/2 is spent fighting with 3rd world help desks that require voice recognition apps to transcribe the unrecognizable version of English they speak.

Time to retell the story of Jules, one of the IRS supervisors who ran the IRS intern classes at National Office back in the late 70s.  He was known for clipping his toenails while lecturing on management theory.  One of his favorite topics was why Service Centers had 6-foot chain link fences built around them.  Was it to discourage the "casual bomber"?  After an hour's discussion, his answer was:  It was not for security.  It was to create the appearance of security. 

If someone's 84-year-old mother can be hijacked from her home in the middle of the night, do you really think your computer is safe?  Do you think a daily phone call is sufficient to protect it from the "casual hacker" ?  

We are having the same issue.  Lacerte is not being helpful in fixing this issue.
