[image] I’m having the same problem.

You should type your student email with lowercase. I have already resolved by that way

I have the same issue, verification completed but no code provided

I also have the “Verification Limit Exceeded” issue, what happened is that when SheerID approved my uni’s email and then It went to checkout, I saw that it wanted to use the account’s email that I was using on the free trial not the actual email of the uni, I’m so dumb I pressed back and not confirm…

yeah. Same issue. The email came that studentId is verified but then it didnot apply the discount. Now I am logging in with the college email then it is showing this limit exceeded screen.

Same Issue here. I was never even signed up with uni email, so where did discount go? Its not on my main account

Same issue here. Unable to onboard to student offer

Guys i found the solution, go to ( FAQ Page ) and enter your edu mail to this section. This will help you to continue for discount. [ss]

I click apply discount button but I still see 20 USD per month in checkout page. Why it is not working? [Screenshot 2025-05-07 at 21.42.03] [Screenshot 2025-05-07 at 20.05.11]

Looks like we’re all having the same issue. It still tries to charge full price, the discount isn’t applied. I guess we just have to wait until they fix it.
