Troubleshooting

If you are having issues verifying your phone number, please check these fixes:

 

You can't perform this action this frequently

If you are seeing this warning, this means you’ve tried verifying your phone number too many times in a small time window. Give it a few minutes and try again. If you tried this a lot, the waiting time can increase up to 24 hours.


This phone number is already in use

If you are seeing this warning, this means this number’s already being used on a different Medal account. Try using a different one, or log in to the account that’s already using it. If you are unsure, contact our Support Team so they can assist you on recovering that Medal account.


I'm not receiving any verification code?!

  • Check your number: Make sure you typed it correctly, including your country code.

  • Give it a minute: Sometimes SMS can take a few minutes to arrive.

  • SMS Restrictions: Some countries have restrictions on receiving SMS. If possible, try using WhatsApp to receive the code instead.

  • Your country is not supported by us: Sadly, due to some restrictions, we are currently not supporting every country.
    Here is a list with known countries, that are not supported by us:

    • China (+86)

    • Iran (+98)


If you still need help with verifying your phone number, please contact support for further assistance. You MUST have a phone number in order to finish any phone verification requirements for quests.
