MFA - Code

While it is nice to know that they have the alert telling us that Verizon, AT & T, T Mobile are down, what is being done to allow us to access our accounts.  We can not enter Lacerte without the code?

crazy day!  They didn't let me know!  How did you learn? @KristineM 

I knew years ago that this is a problem with hosted products but didn't think it would happen to me.  😐

I had logged into Lacerte community and they had a message at the top.  I understand that this was a nation wide issue, but why is there only one option to get our codes?  If we would have had the option to switch it to our e-mails, which I prefer to get codes from anyway, then this would not have had us down during tax season. 

Now that we know this is definitely an issue, I wonder what they are doing to be more proactive for if/when this happens again.  

"only one option to get our codes"

 

In my hosted product I use Duo Mobile, and I can get a phone call or a code from a text or a Mobile Push.  (I had to upgrade my phone last week to be able to use DuoMobile.)
