Do I have to sign in through some other endpoint or has the issue not been resolved at all when I still get the message?

Hey @pandaniell,

In our public community, we aim to answer open questions about anything SysAdmin, DigitalOcean and beyond. However, we make every attempt to keep personal information safe and so don’t ever access personal account information here. This means we can’t provide help with any account or billing-related issues.

If you’ve logged to your account and you’re not prompted to verify your identity, please get back to our support team who will be more than happy to assist you with your account issue!
