Need help in verifying freessl.cn account

AlanDS

Dear All, Until last year, I was using this service to issue 1 year DV SSL free certificates. But since the beginning of this year, they made it mandatory to verify the account using OTP sent to Chinese mobile numbers only. I don't have China number. So I am requesting help from someone who can get this done.

Thanks

Why not just use letsencrypt...?

Because they provide Encryption Everywhere and TrustAsia SSL for free + they are valid for one year... I'm aware of Certbot but some people just don't want to use it for whatever reason.

You can't unless you have a Chinese friend who can help, otherwise, your best bet would be Buypass SSL, it's free with a lifetime of 6 months only but you'll need to use ACME to get it. All the other free SSLs are 3 months only regardless its brand.
