In the past I’ve recommended sms-activate for easy, quick and low cost phone verification. When you want to log in, they now force you to click on a verification link send by email, meaning you are f’ed if you used a single-use email address.

Are there any alternative options that accept monero and don’t have this restriction?

Why is there an issue? Your throwaway emails can on sites like https://tmail.link let you easily generate your emails, and you can access those inboxes any time. Perhaps you can save the email associated to a phone number or something sensible?

No, it was a throwaway gmail I used for multiple things. Yes, I probably could use some other service (your recommendation looks good btw), but if I have a balance on some site I don't what them to lock me out for any reason. This is not the kind of company I want to do business with.
