Ho Can anyone help??

It seems whenever I order anything (not AMazon) they want to send me a text code to my phone. It seems somehow via Goodle/Gmail??? I gave them a phone number. I have lost that pone and have another one now with a different phone number. How do I get in to whatever to change my number please?

Go into you account with them and change the number?
Or you could do a live chat or similar.

Just update the phone number on your Google profile.

To update your phone number on your Google account, you can do the following:
1 Open your device's Settings app
2 Tap Google
3 Tap Your name
4 Tap Manage your Google Account
5 Tap Personal info at the top
6 Under Contact info, tap Phone number
7 Next to your number, tap Edit
8 Tap Update number
9 Enter your new phone number
10 Tap Select

Thanks very much for the reply! I have cut and pasted your post and will try now.

Would you believe you even have to go through with the rigmarole when trying to change a n NHS password!!!

Hmm Cannot seem to find it (google). Mine is a vodophone very basic phone. I hope the technically able porter is in today and he can help me! My last phone was one of those swipeable Samsung Galaxy ones.

Open a Google app, e.g. Gmail. At the top right hand corner you'll see a round icon. Press that and you'll get "manage my Google account". Then follow the instructions above.

Thanks but do not have apps on this phone (told you it was basic!!!)

Will try to get manager or porter to help on Monday.
