I already tried to do the academic verification process, however I received the next message User's image

I already checked my Github student developer pack status and it is showing that was approved and that my benefits are now available I redeem the benefits on other platforms without any problem, I am just having issues trying to redeem the benefit on Azure. User's image

    Hello @Michael Moreno

    I suspect your education email does not have .edu at the end. I believe a solution you can try is as follows.

    1. Open this https://aka.ms/azure4students
    2. Click “Activate Now”
    3. In the upper right click “Logout”
    4. After logging out click “Sign in with different account”
    5. Then “Login with Github” from the sign in page
    6. Follow the process
    7. After successful linking, it’ll ask you to agree with the terms

    I believe that neither edu email nor verification code will show up.

    Hope this helps.

    Russell
