I've been trying on and off for about 2 hours to verify my phone number, but it keeps failing with the message "something went wrong, please try again later".

 

I've looked at other threads on this, but there's no instructions, just an agent saying a ticket will be submitted. Please submit a ticket for me so I can finish creating a profile.

 

Thank you!

I have started the registration process yesterday and am unable to complete it, since I keep getting an error "Something went wrong. Please try again later." when I enter my phone number and click "Send Code". 
I refreshed the page, waited overnight, reentered my country and address, reentered phone - nothing helps. Please help me to register.

I'm currenlty creating my profile as a Freelance Artist, but when I get to the section where I need to verfiy my phone number I get a message saying "Something went wrong. Please try again later." I've tried using different browsers and have cleared my cache, but that doesn't seem to fix the issue.
