What Are You Doing Right Now

Is your problem that you're trying to restore your iPhone during initial setup? yeah, I'm guessing you're kinda screwed on that front. You might have to skip that part, then add it later, or skip it, get the phone working, then disable 2FA, then hard reset the phone again, than then choose to restore during the second setup.
It could be on the account. Apple has two types of two factor systems.
Aka, you can't set up a new phone without getting a code on another device.
Hopefully support with work with her. I looked online and it said it might take a while but they should.

Looks like I'm slowly returning to the land of the living.
Anyway, IT pro's version of Russian roulette:
Post #2 is my favorite answer:

In a chat with plusnet to find out why it will take over a month to transfer my Fibre service as it will leave me without internet for over a week!!!!
I was told before signing up it takes 10days - my current provider is switching my service off on the 3rd July so thought order now and it'll be done early. Order showing 5th for the phone switch over and 5-10days after that for Fibre!!!! -

We had an outage after a storm in 2009. I was without access to the internet for eight weeks, and all this started exactly 8 weeks before the day of our wedding.
Great to be without internet access shortly before the event - HSDPA/UMTS was not an option back then. -

You are mean
The very second I tried to reply with "Power cord missing?":

The good ones always get deleted, it seems.

I'm a little irritated at Apple right now. I had to factory reset my iPhone. I have 2FA configured for my iTunes/iCloud account. The second factor? Text message to my iPhone. So I can't login to my phone to get the text message that I need to login to my phone.
What ever happened with this. Did you get it taken care of? (Hopefully!!!)

Getting posts deleted like crazy over on SW for pointing out that people are claiming that I took a thread off of the rails when it was actually Dustin and a vendor doing it. They didn't mod people insinuating that it was me for no reason, but did moderate me saying who had actually done it when pointing out that it wasn't me. And their excuse? Cleaning up "off topic" items even though the moderator in question was the first one to post something that took us actually off topic.
Argh. No accountability. I've emailed the powers that be.
-
Amateur mod, I should point out.
-
@scottalanmiller I'm diving back into the cesspool for the first time in 1.5 weeks now. Sounds like the typical nonsense?
-
Just got moderated for pointing out that I'd be moderated if I corrected yet another "makes it look like me" post.

We're all just humans. But moderation requires some - how to say in English... - Looking at things with a distance or to be as objective as possible. With great power comes great responsibility. You know what I want to say an I guess

I live in the SW moderators' little time out corner.

Oh, now there are secret discussions to get the topic silenced!

No, just requires doing what the vendors tell you to do

Ah, we're talking about democracy 2.0

Finally after complaining to Sean AND the mod in question at least ONE of the ones pointing at me was removed. But not the other one. It takes zero time to mod me, but everyone has to sit around discussing modding someone else why finger pointing at me remains.
-
This has to be my one day record for getting modded... and it wasn't even my discussion. I didn't start it, I wasn't the main person. I've never seen a thread get removed like this before!
