    I switched phones, my phone number, and my phone company.
    I tried to get back into my Yahoo mail with my email and password but I keep getting a message saying because of new activity in need to use my. Recovery phone number to verify my account.
    I've tried the online help and it just keeps me in a perpetual loop.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    If you have that ID logged in on your phone or your laptop (that you use often to open) then there is a chance to reset the password or login to your ID again.
    Another way is to send the confirmation code on the ID that you have registered for the recovery purpose.
    If you do not have access to all the above-mentioned methods than you can't log in to your account again.
    BTW the number you were using before to log in to your account, you need the same number again to confirm it.

    Oh, that's awful, number portability wasn't an option? No suggestions, just commiserations!
