Let us talk about the 2-Step verification in the Battle.net account. Always remember the following points before you add a phone number to your battle.net account:

• Please don’t use one phone number for multiple accounts: It is very important to remember this as you have to use unique phone numbers for each battle.net account. You won’t be able to pass the verification process if you use the same phone number on different accounts.
