I turned on two-factor for my old email and got locked out for a day
I finally set up two-factor on my old Yahoo account from high school. I used my current phone number, but the backup codes were saved on that same email. When my phone died, I couldn't get the code to log in and reset anything. It took me a full 24 hours to get back in with customer support. Has anyone else had a backup plan fail like that? What's a better way to store those codes?

Been there, locked myself out of my bank account the exact same way last year.
