That's what I've ended up doing, and then dialing in to my number to check the voicemail.

Though, happily, the places where I seem to have to do 2FA more often that are still US-based, either can use my Google Voice number, or send an e-mail.

Oh, on the note of annoying 2FA things, my mom had her investment account switched over, and they wanted my mom to sign some new things.

However, in order to do so, they required doing 2FA with the number they had on file. In my mom's case, this was her landline. And of course they _had_ to do it via text message, thus making it impossible.
