I submitted IRP5 and I got sms to verify my account number. I didn't get any email from SARS and there was no letter in my efiling. I only got sms. What must I do?

It says "Dear Taxpayer, verify your banking details for tax ref no. ***** at a SARS branch. Visit www.sars.gov.za/call 08000007277 for info on supporting docs

SARS are being incredibly difficult at the moment and we are seeing this happen more and more, unfortunately there is nothing that can be done without going into verify, I wish we had better news.
