Primary Account Recovery No OTP
The primary account associated with my company's seller central account as an OTP tied to the phone number of an employee who no longer works here. The "name" for this account in Seller Central is the company name so when trying to provide proof of ID, there is no correlation between my license and the company name. Please help to remove the OTP for this account as we have stranded inventory. This has been an ongoing issue for over a month.

I really don't understand how this happens but judging by the number of forum posts with this problem, it happens often. The primary account holder/business owner should have administrative rights and anyone else with account access should be a secondary user with limited access. Each should have their own login and OTP setup.
We have 6 people with access to our Amazon account: the business owner (not me) and 5 secondary users. We each have our own login, password and OTP setup. And rather than using a phone number, especially for the primary OTP method, use an authenticator app. You can always use a phone number for your backup method. For example, I use an authenticator app for the primary method and a voice call to my direct work phone line for my backup method.

So the Legal Entity isn't the same as your name, or your name isn't on the paperwork for the business?
Did you buy this account? sounds very odd.
