Hey Lalane Baloch, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

Regarding your referral, can you please ask the person who sent you the link, to check this page and see what the status of the referral is?

As for the error you're getting, can you let me know what kind of option you see next to your email address when you go to your account settings here?

Does it say "edit" or "verify"?

Let me know and we'll go from there.
