I'm having a really frustrating time trying to create a Google account lately. It seems like ever since they added this phone number verification step, things have gone downhill. I keep hitting roadblocks with SMS verification, QR scans leading to errors, and getting messages like 'try again later' or 'can't verify'—and it's just making me want to give up. Has anyone out there dealt with this and found a way through? I'd appreciate any help!

How many Google accounts are you trying to set up? Just out of curiosity!
I feel you on the frustration! I've had issues with the SMS verification, too. Sometimes the system just needs a break. Have you tried clearing your cache or using a different browser? That can sometimes help with these verification errors.
I had a similar experience and had to go through their support directly. It's annoying, but it might be worth it if you're stuck. Just make sure to follow their guidelines.
Just one, actually. I already have an old account that I use.
