    Hey Wahyudii, thanks for reaching out to us today.

     

    Just to clarify, do you mean that you tried to login to your account with your email and password, but did not receive the 6-digit security code?

     

    Have you checked your email's spam folder, in case it ended up there?

     

    Also, if you have any other connected devices, you should have gotten a notification with the code on those devices as well.

     

    Let me know what you find.
