T-Mobile ID

Does any one know how to create a T-Mobile ID and access the account? I started T-Mobile 5G internet service on April 22 and have been trying since that time to create a T-Mobile ID. Despite numerous calls to customer service no one has been able to assist. The error message I kept getting was “We're sorry, we don't recognize this email.” Yet, I input the exact email I used when signing up for internet service, and T-Mobile has sent me several emails (including the "You're In" email, confirmation of order email, terms of service mail, as well as several marketing emails).

Finally (May 12), when trying to create a T-Mobile ID I received a message that there already is a T-Mobile ID associated with my email address. FINALLY (after more than 20 attempts at various times and using different browsers).

However, now the issue is that when I try to log-in I get a screen asking for my telephone number to link to my account and a confirmation code will be sent. When I enter my telephone number (non- T-Mobile) an error message pops up “Please verify your 10 digit T-Mobile phone number is correct.” 

I am stuck in a maze of never-ending loops -- first I could not create a T-Mobile ID since my email supposedly was not recognized, and now I cannot access my account because I receive an error message that I am not entering a T-Mobile phone number. I do not have T-Mobile phone service, and when I enter the phone number listed on my 5G internet gateway I get the error message that I was getting when initially trying to create a T-Mobile ID: “We're sorry, we don't recognize this email.”
