Locked out of my account after getting a new iPhone — no way to contact support?

I just got a new iPhone and am trying to sign into my account. The problem is that it keeps asking me to authenticate/approve the login through my old iPhone, which I no longer have.

I tried logging in through the website thinking I could fix it there, but I run into the exact same issue - it wants authentication from the old device.

What’s really frustrating is that I cannot seem to find any way to reach an actual person — no email, chat, or phone support that I can find. I feel like I’m stuck in a loop: I need access to my account to change the authentication method, but I need my old phone to access my account.

Has anyone dealt with this and successfully recovered access? Is there a support channel or account recovery process I’m missing?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I’m beyond frustrated at this point.

New to IBKR. Haven't finished my account yet. Do I have to do overseas wire transfers every time I fund my account?

Lot's of overseas companies just charge my account without a fixed fee my bank charges me when making wire transfers. But what I wonder is do I have to wire the money every time I fund the account?

IBKR Fund deposit from CBQ

As per my understanding, among the methods listed, few are applicable if we hold the bank account within US.

For Wire Transfer or Transfer via WISE, is there any intermediary bank charges ?

If I transfer 100$ from my CBQ USD account to IBKR, will I receive the full 100$ in IBKR ?

Jordanian considering IBKR for long-term ETF investing. How much do SWIFT transfers from Arab Bank usually cost? Any hidden IBKR fees? Given the transfer costs, would you still choose IBKR over CFI, AB Invest, or another local broker? Why?
