2FA and changing to new phone ( old phone not available)

I changed to a new iphone yesterday. The Google Authentitator was not carried over on the change over. I am now trying to add 2FA to GA on my new phone.

i logged on to my account to reset the 2 FA and everytime it directs me to my log in and I have to furnish a authentitator code ( which I dont have as the GA does not have MYOB 2 FA ). I am going around in circles.

I do not have the 10 back up codes etc and I cannot seem to generate one at all from my account.

Pls assist

    Unfortunately my experience has been if your old authenticator is unavailable to switch over, you'll need to call MYOB to reset your 2FA.

      Thanks for the reply. I finally found the back up codes. And I follow exactly the steps ie log in but when I put the back up code in, it does not work. It wants the 6 digits authenticator codes and there is no other work around from the log in screen ( I go to my account, click security settings etc and it takes me to the page where I need to change 2 FA)

      Pls advise.

       

      Thanks
