The reason for this is simple: it’s not possible to automatically perform a phone verification with an IVR-connected phone number. When sending the verification code to the phone number via a voice call, this call needs to be routed to an agent’s phone. To proceed with this, you will receive 2 CallerIDs from tyntec for the phone verification.
