I need to create an Apple account since yesterday. At first I got the error message “Your account cannot be created at this time.” right away. So I waited until the Cloudflare outage was over.

After that, I could submit the request, received codes via email and text message. But when I enter the code from the text message, the error message “Your account cannot be created at this time.” appears again.

The service “Apple Account” is marked green on Apple’s status page. The email address and phone number are working, as they both received the codes.
