Its an not a local issue its a external  problem . The verication emails come 5 hours our so later in the middle of the  night last night about 2pm  all at once . I have had to use a different email service as I require access to microsoft account for work . If you use another email provider such as Gmail the microsoft verication codes arrive immeadiately . I created some new virgin emails same result before switching to different service  the new emails resulted in the same issue long delays  this has been happening for 4 days plus  . May be the servers  are filtering out emails they wrongly believe are fraudalent . Its amazing how a small thing can blow your mind I have moved on  now may be your techinacal time could sort this out its not the service we pay for ......I am out of contract at present ,

Cheers

Peter
