Hi,
How can i sign in to amazon.co.uk?
When i try, it sends me a website as a text message to my "bar of soap" phone.
(i dont have a smartphone).
It tells me to "tap" it...but i cant do that because i dont have a smart phone.
Is there another way?...the amazon website doesnt help with this.

Smart phones are useless to me.....because i read lots of component datasheets...and you cant do that on a small smartphone screen....so my internet payments go to my mobile router provider, which is EE

Thanks, I downloaded WhatsApp from Bluestacks. However, i still cant sign in to Amazon.
Amazon still sends me a long website address to my simple "bar of soap" phone.
Do you mean that i could somehow access this message via WhatsApp?, or via Bluestacks?...then i can click this web address there?

I can't help but chuckle at "Smartphones are useless to me" on a thread that is having issues because you don't have a smartphone. Clearly they're not useless.

Anyway, this is a question for Amazon support. That said I would expect they have a way to let you send a code via SMS rather than a full blown link.
