I've had 2 account created when I started using Digital ocean. One of them was really just a mistake. I create a account with another of my email but never used it (no droplet, no payment information, no credit)
Now I just happened to login to the unused account by mistake (both account pwd where stored in my password manager) and then to my actual account.
The account was flagged immediately.
I understand there might be some abuse with account creation but this is clearly excessive IMO:
I would understand if they flagged IP for creating too many account of maybe even for doing many logging to different account. But right now it seems excessive / not well tuned.
I hope this restrictions are only Limited to Sign up. Or is it related to day to day usage as well. Is any one still facing this issue ?
I am a services provider and handle multiple client Logins, I might be using same browser to access multiple accounts provided by my client . Also I might access multiple accounts from multiple browsers from a same system.
If this is the case all my clients who use Digital Ocean will be in a fix.
Jaykrsna,
we have a complementary enhancement to the DO dashboard, and it implements some features you seem to require, moving in and out of different client accounts from the same browser,

you can do that with our light weight organizations construct, that supports fine grained permissions, with just a click you can move from resources in one account to another.
