Gmail verification

Every time I log in now on Gmail, I have to go through a '2 step verification' process. I'm sent a message to my phone, and have to click on a 'Yes it's me' button. I've done it umpteen times now on the same computer (I have 2), so how can 'they' not know I am who I say I am.

do you log out when your not using it???

Yes Peter., I do. I always have, and it's never been an issue before

I am with Sky and they use Yahoo E-mail and I am sent a 6 digit number to my mobile which I have to enter into boxes before I can open my E-mails ,I can tick a box to allow me to go into my e-mails for a month once I have entered the code

Things are getting a bit weird I fancy. Thanks for commenting though.

It's better that there are these security procedures in place, I for one welcome them

I take Visa payments and it's mandatory to use an Authenticator two step verification code so much safer than without

did you opt into '2 step verification' process with your phone number??

No I didnt, I use another email address, for verification purposes.

That two stage verification thing is a pain in the backside, but you can turn it off.

Thanks Tommy. I'll look into it.
