Question

Whatsapp Notifications Account SMS does not work

Hello,
I wanted to set up a Whatsapp Notifications Zap.

Zapier asked for adding this account to the Whatsapp Notifications Thingy via my phone number.

When I put the phone number with the correct format (+49XXXXXXXXXX) and try to get the SMS code,

it does not work.
When I try the “workaround” offered by Zapier (sending a pre-filled message on Whatsapp), where I have to accept the latest terms and conditions of Whatsapp, my confirmation seems to be not registered at all.

I am stuck in a loop of waiting for the SMS code, and accepting terms and conditions of Whatsapp on my cellphone. 

Any idea or experience on how to fix it? 
Is my German cellphone code wrong (perhaps Zapier expects US based numbers?).

Regards,

mando
