I have a bunch of unregs I'm excited to try my luck with, but Yahoo requires a phone number for creating an account... anyone have any idea how to get around this? Tried using the sites that give you a throwaway but Yahoo saw right through that one.
Thoughts? Methods? I'll +rep for help.
Sorry I can't be of more help, but I'm running into the same issue! From what I understand yahoo blocks you from using any voip numbers, and that's a lot of the free online ones.
I've gone through and deleted the older accounts I had made, hoping that if I deleted those I could make more. But yahoo takes up to 3 months to process those as well so now I'm just stuck looking for a way around it.
I'd be very appreciative to find an answer too.

Maybe instead of free you could look for cheap phone services or something similar. alternate phone # apps? maybe one that you can install and uninstall and then reinstall fo ra new number?

I've tried a few of the free apps with no luck so far.
It's an interesting idea, I think sprint or t-mobile offers a service for $3 for 30 texts. Obviously only 5-6 would be needed, but it's worth looking further into.
I always thought burner phones with prepaid minutes were more available but it doesn't seem that way.
I'll post again if I find anything

As stated earlier Yahoo blocks VoIP numbers. You can use a friend/family's phone number and ask them to text you the code. You can remove your current phone number from your other email addresses and it'll work then (takes 1-2 days to process, at least in my experience). I haven't tried it, but I know Gmail offers a phone service that you can use online/through your phone. You might be able to set up an email address and a phone number through them on your phone and you may have some luck.I have a bunch of unregs I'm excited to try my luck with, but Yahoo requires a phone number for creating an account... anyone have any idea how to get around this?

Yahoo has upped their security here recently, kinda sucks for the not-so-ordinary-user.
Why does it have to be Yahoo? I use Gmail for all my shells, last I was aware it didn't require (though does ask for one, but you can skip it) a phone number.
