...it asked from my mobile phone number to send me a code. I did that but no code sent. That doesn't sound good. I'm no techie, but I would be very suspicious about giving my cell number to a message that promised to unblock access to a free email account.
Hope it's just a system glitch, and that you haven't inadvertently compromised your phone security.

Well, I did type in “hotmail.com” in the URL so it must have been them. Also many others have the same problem.

Some people just don’t think while using their computer.
It never occurs to them that their computer has been compromised into being directed to “real” looking fake websites.
...and of course they give away their info when prompted...
Users who don’t think, the bane of IT Support.
