Hi there @umi1, sorry to hear about this.

 

Could you please send a screenshot of the exact error you're getting so that we can have a visual too?

 

Thanks!

Hi @umi1, this could mean that too many attempts have been made to create an account with that email address or from the same location.

@Jay  My friend just create a new email on new device and tried signing up using my shared referral link, it still says the same on his new device. What are we doing wrong here?

Hey @umi1, is this new computer connected to the same network? If so, can they try from a different one?
