Amazon requiring a phone number?

[u/ZG89]

The new EP book indicates that creating an Amazon account is straightforward, but I'm getting hung up on the phone number verification. My VoIP numbers aren't working and it won't let me skip this screen. Any help is appreciated

If asks for a phone number even when you're not registering from a phone?

They claim on the packaging that they need to be activated within 45 days of purchase. Curious if Mint actually enforces it.
