Hi Piets and Karen68,

Thank you for posting in the community! I understand that both of you have experienced delays with your verification code emails. I apologize for the inconvenience (sometimes caused by saturation in our servers). I’ll be glad to look for a solution with you.

@Piets, thank you for troubleshooting on your side. Note that when no newer version of the app is available reinstalling it is not recommended. Please confirm if you managed to resolve the issue and share with us the successful steps taken on your side, and let us know what your device is.

@Karen68, please share with us the error code or message that you receive that makes the code received not work, or if the issue was resolved in time. Also please indicate what your device is.

I look forward to hearing from you; I’ll be glad to have the issue resolved.

Regards,

Humberto

Hello Huberto,

I tried login on iPad Air from my wife. Verification code was ended outside the timeframe, more than an hour to late. Also I tried login on my iPhone. Same problem arises. So a server side problem still persists. Before we needed a verification code we had never problems login in on whatever Apple device we own. Looks like the business rules the server admin/database administrator implemented are not correct. There should also be more clients who have the same problem. For me looks like a simple process to send back a code to a email adress.

I hope you have enough info to inform the responsible IT techs that this problem still persists.

Greetings
Piet
