I changed my surname
I changed my surname because I got married. As it is not possible to change my yahoo e-mail address from old surname to new surname, I wanted to create a new yahoo email address. However I have only ONE PHONE NUMBER, and when I am creating the new yahoo email address I can not proceed as the phone number is already used with the current yahoo account. I of course do not want to delete the current account as many people (organizations, state authorities) will of course email to my current email and maybe it will take one year to transfer everything to new email, however which is not possible to create BECAUSE I DO HAVE ONLY ONE PHONE NUMBER.

Hi there. I'm sorry for the inconvenience this has caused you! You can either try using a different mobile number to register a new account or I would recommend updating only your Account name and sending name to your current one.
