Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

User is returned to the enter email step

What is the root cause of that problem?

we don't change route when we navigate to verify steps

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

1. We should add new route for this page like we did with Add bank account

    SETTINGS_NEW_CONTACT_METHOD_VERIFY: {
        route: 'settings/profile/contact-methods/new/verify',
        getRoute: (backTo?: string) => getUrlWithBackToParam('settings/profile/contact-methods/new/verify', backTo),
    },

2. And move this modal to the new page

App/src/pages/settings/Profile/Contacts/NewContactMethodPage.tsx

Lines 161 to 164 in 3e27050

	<ValidateCodeActionModal
	validatePendingAction={pendingContactAction?.pendingFields?.actionVerified}
	validateError={validateLoginError}
	handleSubmitForm={addNewContactMethod}

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

We can customize VerifyAccountPage component to match the requirements on the contact page.

[aimane-chnaif]

Was about to say that 😄
I also reproduced in prod.

Just tested and reproducible in 1e81aa8

[aimane-chnaif]

From my investigation, the root cause is related to AccessOrNotFoundWrapper in NewContactMethodPage.
After removing this wrapper, the bug is gone.

[srikarparsi]

Nice, agreed, also able to reproduce this on production
