Can't log in

Question

I logged out of Facebook on every device, because I changed my password. I also pressed X on every recognisable device, just to make sure, that I haven't left Facebook somewhere logged in. And I have had set two factor authentication on.

Now I can't log in, because it asks me for 6 digits code, which can only be retrieved when logged in.

I am using same phone and same 2 computers to log in, that I have used to be logged in for many years, but it still can't log in.

I sent my passport photo to Facebook support, but it only changed log in email, which doesn't help, because it still asks me to enter 6 digits code out of code generator.

Please advise what I should do? I am logged out for a week now and tried every possible way to log in.

Hi,

I suggest you try the methods described in this thread.

Hope that helps.

Thanks, HelpiOS! Looks like this could work. But the problem is that "Having trouble?" button is inactive and it's impossible to press it. I tried reinstalling Facebook app, but it didn't helped. Maybe you know another method to make it active?

Somehow I managed to get "having trouble?" button work. But still there isn't any "I don't have my phone > Contact us" option...

Log out from your mobile and access Facebook from your PC.

Log in as usual to your account and select Need another way to authenticate.

Yeah, this doesn't help either...

PC gives almost no options, except through "forgotten password", but it only changes password or log in email, and still asks for code generator.

Hi,

I found a form that you can use to confirm your identity in case you've lost access to your Facebook account. Here's the form. Once your ID has been submitted, check your email address (and spam folder) regularly.

Good luck.

Thanks again for the help. I tried submitting ID once, but they only changed log in email and still asks for code generator. There wasn't any "remove two factor authentication" or similar options and didn't replied to the email. I will submit ID again through our link. Will be back with the answer I get.
