We’re unable to validate your phone number

Using the mobile device associated with the phone number to register helped in my case, and others, too.

For a large company, I don't think this issue wouldn't be fixed quickly for users so they can register an account. So what kind of good customer service is this?

None of the workarounds work for me, trying from Netherlands.

This is pretty awful coding from a global player. I've got the same issue too

I ran into this issue today 23 Jan 2025. I tried different methods changing phone numbers and country codes but nothing works

I am facing the same error as of today. No luck talking to contact support. I am trying to sign up from the UK region. Has anyone been able to resolve this error?

Same problem here, i made a support ticket and no answer for a few days already.

Trying from poland.

No luck even after trying to register from phone

For me its not working neither using mobile browser nor laptop
what to do now ??

Tried last week and today again with Irish number. Issue was not fixed. Microsoft doesn't want my money will go with AWS. Disappointed!

@Nicolae Macari Please send me an email

@Ido A Please help us with the support ticket to review the status internally.

@Givary-MSFT How about the rest of us who have the same issue even after trying all the workarounds and unable to raise a support ticket?

I have similar problem, I can't validate my phone number and I can't create a ticket about that and when I try to inform about my problem bot is texting me and it gives me some links, over and over again the same ones, that don't help at all.

Same issue at 29th jan 2025, submitted the ticket, waiting for solution.

I tried to send email__. And it says:__

Address not foundAddress not foundYour message wasn't delivered because the address couldn't be found, or is unable to receive mail.There're a lot of people experiencing this issue and cannot register to Azure (and spend their money!!). Can you please priority fixing this issue? I cannot believe there have been a long time and it has not been fixed yet.

any answers for indonesian?

For anyone else experiencing this issue, you must use Microsoft Edge browser for this to work - any other browser that I have tried (Chrome, safari, firefox) does not work but if you attempt the sign up form on Microsoft Edge, it will work.

Issue with Phone Validation During Signup on Azure (Windows vs. Mobile Workaround)

I faced an issue while signing up for Azure on my Windows laptop—my phone number couldn't be validated, preventing me from completing the signup. However, when I tried signing up using my Android phone, it worked fine. After successfully signing up on mobile, I was able to log in on my Windows laptop without any issues.

If anyone else is stuck with phone validation errors on Windows, try signing up via mobile first and then logging in on your laptop. Hope this helps

Try creating azure account on mobile devices, as this worked for me

Do you manage to fix this??

@Hoang Nguyen Please create another post with Entra id tag and tag my name/id, will help you offline to fix this issue.

i am still facing this issue in April-2025 , why there is no solution provides by MS for such a big issue , are they sleeping ?

How dificulta can this be? It really seems like an accomplishment to make a signup process so bad that over the course of more than two years (these comments and others on similar threads go back to 2023) that it is neigh implossible to sign up.

I have tried:

1. One plus 12 on 5G and or on Wi-Fi
   1. chrome
   2. edge
   3. duckduckgo
2. iPhone 13 on Wi-Fi
   1. edge
   2. safari
   3. chrome
3. samsung a52 on wifi
   1. duckduckgo
   2. chrome
   3. edge
4. ipad pro on wifi
   1. edge
   2. chrome
   3. safari
5. windows 11 laptop on wifi
   1. Edge
   2. chrome

Phone numbers in the formats:

• 612345678
• 0034612345678
• +34612345678
• 034612345678
• 34612345678

2 phone numbers from Spain and one from the Netherlands.

3 different email addresses, one of which was not yet registered with azure / Microsoft at all, the other two already with an Azure account.

I have called the both phone numbers of Microsoft Spain. Both lead to the same answering machine, which makes you shout very specific phrases at you phone because “it is cool to have voice controlled menus on phone lines, especially if they are completely unable to convert any speach to text that is preprogrammed to have an answer” (please just “press 1 for.., press 2 for..). I work with Microsoft products (dynamics and power apps) every day, and everyday Microsoft reminds me that the world is stuck together by people that don’t know what they are doing in position that they should not be in.

It is either that or Microsoft really does not want people to sign up.

I can’t wait for this to be either ignored or for someone to come along and post a none solution with a reminder to mark their none solution as the solution “because it will help other find out”…

so Rant over
