I do not want a mobile phone, and if I had one, I would not allow text, incoming or outgoing. So how do I get Yahoo to stop asking?
Hello Janet, To further improve the security of Yahoo! accounts, we've been prompting our users to add an optional mobile phone number and/or alternate email address to their Yahoo! account. By providing this info, you'll be alerted of any changes made to your account immediately via your mobile phone and/or alternate email address, and you'll have a quick way to recover your password should you need to in the future. If you do not have a mobile phone number or an alternate email address or would rather not provide that information, or if your country is not currently supported, click Remind Me Later rather than closing your browser window. This will ensure that you won't be asked to provide your mobile phone number or alternate email address again for another two weeks. I hope this helps!
No, this does not help, I want to opt out permanently.
Just keep skipping it. Don't be corned into giving anyone your cell number.
