I got locked out of Desktop version QuickBooks 2018 after the system forced me to reset password.

I logged into my account on line to verify the credentails.  

Am not able to reset the password manually or with the Automated password reset tools as the system does not recognize a Phone number I am putting into the dialog box. I am looking at my profile on liune and copying as is, and the system says " wrong phone number"   Need some help reseting password
