What issue are you seeing?
I cannot log in to Codex CLI because it redirects me to https://auth.openai.com/add-phone and asks me to add a phone number.
However, the phone number associated with my OpenAI account is rejected with:
"This phone number has already been used. Please use a different phone number."
The same issue occurs on two different computers, including the account owner's own computer. ChatGPT web login works normally.
What steps can reproduce the bug?
No idea
What is the expected behavior?
