I cannot create an account because the OTP is never being send to me

Is the verification code supposed to arrive by email or text message? After you request it, does the page say that a code was sent, or does it show an error? If it is being sent by email, which email provider are you using? If it is a text message, which country are you in? Please don’t post your full email address, phone number, or verification code here.

Avoid requesting many codes repeatedly, as that can trigger a temporary block. There is also a current Microsoft 365 service incident affecting Outlook connectivity and some email delivery, so an affected Outlook mailbox could experience delays. If the sign-up page offers another verification method, you could try an alternative email address or mobile number you control.
