Question

Meta Developer registration loops after successful phone verification

Hi Meta team, I’m trying to create a Meta for Developers account to use the official APIs for my Facebook Page and Instagram.

 

The issue is:

Register > phone OTP received and accepted > Contact info > About you > Complete Registration > sent back to Verify account.

 

I have already:

 

-Verified the phone number and email in Accounts Center

-Enabled Facebook 2FA

-Confirmed the Instagram account is Professional and connected to the Facebook Page

-Tried both normal Chrome and Incognito

-Tried the Meta Pay phone-number workaround

 

The SMS verification itself works, but registration never completes.

 

I also cannot report this through Developer Support because submitting a support request appears to require an existing Developer account.

 

Could you please advise the immediate next step or redirect the issue to the appropriate support channel/team for this registration issue? Please keep in mind that I am unable to create a bug ticket in developer support as that itself requires a developer account, any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

how convenient of you to paste a picture instead of redirecting the issue to the right contacts for a genuine bug people are facing. Do some work.

LOL. I'm not your employee. Nor Meta's. Go take your entitled attitude elsewhere. Or do your own research šŸ˜‰. And maybe read the forum guidelines before posting.
