Good day, @RFT1.

 

Two-step verification is a setting in QuickBooks Online where you need to verify, using a code sent to your mobile phone, that you're the one accessing your account.

 

If you don't need this setting, we can follow the suggested steps that were shared by Just_me to disable it. 

 

The steps above are intended if you're still using the same phone number. If not,  you'll need to update your contact information so you can sign in to your account. Once it’s updated, you can then turn off two-step verification. Here's how:
 

  1. Complete the Email Change Request form. Make sure to enter your new phone number in the Recovery Number field.
  2. Attach a copy of any of your photo ID forms. Then, select Browse.
  3. Find and select the file, then click Open.
  4. Once the file is uploaded, select Submit.
  5. Once you receive a notification that your phone number is updated, sign in to your Intuit account.
  6. From the left menu, click Sign in & security.
  7. Select 2-step verification.
  8. Turn off the Use 2-step verification switch.
  9. Enter your account password, then click Continue.

None of these suggestions work. 

NO matter what I do, click turn off 2 step verification, change password, update email, change phone number, update phone number, nothing works.

Currently it shows 2 step verification is off, but IT IS NOT OFF. 

Everytime I log in, it is still asking me for a code.

I WANT TO TURN IT OFF!

There are 3 users on the account and I am the only one it does this to.
