We had the same with Amazon, we created a new Amazon account but shared the telephone number. Support sent emails to the first account concerning the second account.

I have stopped giving out phone numbers to services. I can get throwaway email addresses (eg anonaddy.me, which is great) but burner numbers incur a significant time and cost, so I just don’t use services that demand one now.

Google Accounts fall into this category these days. Possible I’ll deprecate my use of those, as I don’t use gmail or drive any longer.
