when trying to validate my account through SMS it keeps giving the same "An unexpected error has occurred on Bungie's servers while trying to grab Destiny information. (1618)" i tried to even remove the phone # on my main account to try it there and it still gives the same error.
Hi there,
Thanks you for reaching out,
We’ve seen some recent reports of this when players try to add or re-add a number, and are currently investigating.
Please try the following steps:
Refresh your Destiny data
Log fully into Destiny 2 on the account you’re verifying.
On each character, equip a different emblem (swap to something else, wait a moment, then swap again if needed).
Return to orbit, then close the game completely.
Retry the SMS verification
Go back to https://www.bungie.net and sign in.
Go to Profile > Settings > Account Security (or the page you were using to add SMS).
Try adding/validating your mobile number again (no VOIP / app numbers).
