Greetings, I need MFA and a few other things for work. I’d like to swap to a dumb phone on my off times. I don’t want to constantly swap out a SIM as it eventually damages the card itself.

What are my options? And is there a dumb phone you recommended?

    Can you talk with the IT team?
    I was able to switch my MFA to a Yubikey.
    They rolled out the MFA policy quite recently and I immediately sent an email like “Hello. I do not have a smartphone. What are my options?”
    They also had the option for SMS verification, but I had been looking at getting a Yubikey for myself anyway so might as well get work to pay for it.

        I mean, that’s on the IT department in most countries. Like if you don’t have a smart phone, you don’t have a smart phone. If they want it for the job usually they would need to either provide an alternative or provide the device.
