Facebook Login the page to Login to Facebook and Access Your FaceBook account with signin!

i have seen it, when logging on the first time on a new device recently (assuming it's the 2fa thing they do now - i just used google authenticate on my phone).

they had a thing where you could nominate 2 or 3 friends who would vouch for you. is that still a thing?

I thought I got it because I was an admin for a few of my company's publication pages. My "profile has a large audience!" Haha, yeah, ok.

Again, I don't have a cell phone and don't want one. I've used two-step verification before where they send a code to my e-mail address, or I identify recent comments, but they're not an option right now. I can choose "Authentication app," "Text message," or "Security key." None of them work on a desktop, or I'm not doing the right things.

I've seen the thing about having a large audience too, which my page most definitely does not. I've sent two e-mails this morning, but I know that getting a response is like playing the lottery.

Again, there are ways to get a phone number without having a cellphone. Assuming that it'd be the same for Canada as it is in the U.S. since we're all on the NANP. Just gotta ask yourself how badly you want to log into Facebook.

It is, unfortunately, important to me. There are a number of people I only have contact with via Facebook (the idea of switching our contact over to e-mail is not workable for a variety of reasons). There are a couple of things I need to post about in the coming months, and I need Facebook for that.

By "get a phone number," I'm not sure what you mean. I have a land line, of course, but I tried that for the activation process and it didn't work. Do you mean ways to get a cell-phone number without actually having one? Even if that's possible, how would I then retrieve the text message?

Sorry if I'm coming across as edgy. I'm just stumped. Photobucket's been contacting me about locked photos for two years--there, I don't give a fuck. This is different.

there's a "Recover your Facebook account from a friend's or family member's account" option mentioned in the FAQ. is that any use?

this, maybe? https://textfree.us/#/welcome

Both of those ideas look potentially helpful--thanks, I'll look into them.

Can you do Google Voice in Canada? That's how I got my business number when I didn't want clients knowing my personal number

First number is free, I think, but that was 2012 so don't quote me

Looks like it is, so that might work too--thanks.

I'll look into all of these this afternoon.

In a perfect world, Facebook is a company, and you can contact them, and they'll fix the problem. I think that world was still around maybe 10 years ago?

Absolutely nothing works, including the three methods suggested above.

I know this a weird request, but does anybody actually know someone who works at Facebook and can (not here, obviously, but via board e-mail) hook me up with an e-mail address?
