How can I unlock my Apple ID when I don't recall the answers to my security questions?

So my original apple id is locked for security reasons.it takes me to a place where i can unlock my account by either sending an email to that locked apple id or i could answer the security question. I dont remember the security question at all and ive seen some videos where it tells the person to add their phone number but that option NEVER comes for me . i need some help how else can i recover my apple id ?

Did resetting fail?


Did you get a "not sufficient information" message?


Did you try account recovery?


Did you try a rescue email address?


Could you not set up 2 factor authentication instead?


What did Apple say when you called them?


If all the above have negative results then have you reconciled yourself that the account cannot be used any more and you need to create a new account?

Your question has nothing to do really with the one being addressed in this topic. Out of courtesy to the original poster, you should normally start a new topic with your own question (which a search would also reveal has been answered hundreds of times already).


In any case, you might be able to request access to your account by tapping Request Access right from the alert. If that does not work, this link (versus one taking you to the general support page) is the most direct way to get to the people helping you with this —> https://getsupport.apple.com/?PGF=PGF63005&category_id=SC0245&symptom_id=23626
