Hi everyone
Are there any expats living overseas and have no US mobile number? How do you login on to Chase accounts? I have Google voice for all other accounts that can perfectly receive text messages. Chase on the other hand does not accept it and offered to take down my Swiss mobile phone. Somehow it does not send out text messages from Chase to international phone. The reason could be that nobody knows how the format should be for this ( 11041 / +41 ) The only way to login is by calling each time and request a code. In the past I had the code sent to my email but that also has been removed. Does anybody have a solution because this is driving me crazy like that.
Any experience and suggestions how to login with no US mobile phone ?
My dad does this but he has my US number hooked up to his chase account, I'm assuming he has a way to log in with email maybe but I can check with him and let you know.
Been there, done that. My phone got ocean-damaged so I had to get a replacement halfway through my trip. I could not request an email verification code when trying to log in from a new device. It HAD to be a U.S. carrier number, no VOIP or Google Voice. Chase is the only bank that does this. My current temporary plan is to enable a cheap $5/month Tello plan with ONLY SMS, and either
1) use Tello eSIM which can work overseas with Wi-Fi Calling enabled (you can even activate it overseas over Wi-Fi).
2) use Tello physical SIM, stick it in an Android phone with Google Messages app installed, and leave it in the U.S. Connect my other devices to Google Messages for Web so I can access SMS from other devices connected over Wi-Fi. This is untested, and somewhat riskier. I'll try #1 but have a backup in case #1 doesn't work. It should though, according to this post:

Hi,
For expats without a US mobile number, consider using a service like NumberBarn or Google Fi to maintain a US number for 2FA with banks. Alternatively, explore options to switch to app-based 2FA like Authy or 1Password, which may be supported by your bank.
If Chase doesn't accept your Google Voice or Swiss mobile number for login, try reaching out to customer support for alternative solutions. They might offer email verification or suggest international messaging options.
You should be able to receive this in other ways than a text message. I've used email in the past with no issues:
Why am I being asked to verify my identity?
We want to make sure you're really you. There are several reasons why we might ask you to confirm your identity:
How do I verify my identity?
You can verify your identity with a one-time code that we send to you, which we'll use to confirm that you're the one signing in to your account. You can receive that code in a text, email or voicemail. You may also be able to get verified by responding to a push notification.
How do I get a one-time code?
We can send your code by text, email, or you can call us to receive a code. To get your code, close this message and choose "Next," then follow the instructions.
How do I get push notifications?
We can send you a push notification to verify your identity. To get push notifications, close this message and choose "Send a push notification to my phone," then follow the instructions. This feature may not be available for all users.
To set up push notifications on your iPhone, go to "Notifications" in the "Settings" folder, choose "Chase," then "Allow notifications." On your Android, go to "Settings," choose "Apps," then "Chase." Next choose "App settings," then "Notifications," followed by "Show notifications."
