Have been an inactive trader for a few years. Left some stocks and cash untouched in my Etrade account. Now that I want to start trading again, I could not log in. The platform accepted my username and password but then required a phone number after. Before I can just log in using my username, password, and a security code.
Steps done:
1. I tried logging in as usual with my username, password, and the given security code but could not get pass anything.
2. I tried just my username and password, it verified but cannot get in my account unless I gave my mobile number. That's fine since I did register my mobile number with Etrade. But now, it said that it is unable to match my name with my mobile number.
3. I tried calling the listed toll-free number in my country but it cannot even patch through.
4. So I called the international US number +[protected] as per Etrade's website. A Filipino man answered, said it is not Etrade but an emergency toll hotline and he is in the Philippines and not US.
5. Left a message on Etrade's Facebook messenger, no answer.
6. Wrote to [protected]@morganstanley.com.

Cannot get in touch with anyone from Etrade. Please help.
