Hello, I am traveling and have switched to an Internatl SIM, but need to access a 2-factor code at my regular Verizon SIM phone number.
Can I simply switch my SIM back to my original, engage data roaming to invoke Verizon TravelPass (single-day billing) , get my needed auth code, then switch back to internatl SIM without requiring complex re-configurations other than data roaming?
Thanks, Litesmith

Hello Litesmith. That is a great question. You would need to get back on your Verizon SIM in order to get a text to allow you to access the account. You also have the option of calling our international support team at call 908-559-4899. ~Peter

All resources suggested in responce resulted in dead /disconnected phone lines. All other attempts to get help from Verizon (my provider... sigh!) resulted in absolutely no help whatsoever.
Re : the initial reply - Have you ever noticed that whenever a politician replies to a question with, "That's a very good question !", that he/she never provides an actual usable answer ? In essence,.. "that's a really valid and important issue,... you just go ahead and figure it out by yourself! "
I'll harness the misery that was provided by this problem and use the energy to move on to another provider. How do you make a provider move after years? "That's a very good question"! : )
