Can't register with WhatsApp
DomAnow_3305153 Have you tried totally deleting the app and then downloading it afresh?
Did you read this article? : https://faq.whatsapp.com/1120385166078156/?helpref=search&query=troubleshooting&search_session_id=db6d66afaa8b78508a630f76ad4d6fbf&sr=7 It can take up to 24 hours to receive the code.
I’d try all solutions and still wouldn’t work as it tells wait an hour and try again. Been doing it since yesterday I got my smarty sim.This is bad!

See my other post with the solution on how to do it using the telephone call. It was tricky but it worked. That option lets you try it every four or five minutes.

Yep tried the phone call verif way too and it only told me “ press 1”. Then stopped.

DomAnow_3305153 Am I correct in assuming that you have activated your smarty sim and it is working and also shows on your account dashboard?
Are you changing the number on an existing account? Is the text going to your currently registered number?

Sim activated . Number in dashboard no number change . As we all say we tried EVERYTHING. For most people Smarty’s not compatible with WhatsApp. End of.

I’m only using the smarty sim and it’s activated but unable to receive code from WhatsApp

DomAnow_3305153 But I'm wondering if your WhatsApp account runs with the old number and they are sending a text to that number.
