Hi there @Henry lee - sorry to hear about this.

 

Could you try another browser to request the verification email and let us know how it goes?

 

If you still have issues with this, we will need to reach out via email to investigate further. 

 

Thanks!

I'm using mobile Gmail app & outlook app. Both refreshed multiple times for inbox & spam yet no new email.
