Creating a Microsoft account, or using Outlook or Xbox, may require verifying a phone number with an SMS code. Microsoft is a work and account service where the phone number is often a key credential for account recovery and security checks. SMS verification codes are sent when you sign in on a new device, change your password or register.

These accounts use many risk signals, so if Microsoft says the number cannot be used, it has usually been verified many times or sits in a virtual range. Try another country or number; a temporary number suits one-time verification only, so bind your own long-term phone and a backup email on important accounts.
