Validate domain to renew SSL certificate not working.
Hello! As the title mentions, I've received an email 6 days ago from CF asking to review the certificate for my SSL, and I have added the requested DNS TXT records. But through the website to verify I get a forbidden error every time I try to verify it, it's been about a week, and it still doesn't work.
Website is hosted through Pages, I'm not sure if that impacts it or not.
I have disabled any adblocker/privacy badger that might impact stuff extension-wise.
Any help?

DNS over Discord: NS records

Im having the same issue, i even used Powershell API and KEY script to force the values into the DNS. I think its by design to get paying support customers.
Yeah i tried Edge, Firefox, Chrome and Incognito modes as well - yeah i waited a while too. Try again tomorrow. Not going to be moving any customers to cloudflare

it would surprise me that it's made bad on purpose, there's a phone number to call on that page that I've yet to call which I intend to, we'll see if that can get me anywhere.
Still giving me the same forbidden error :(
tbh, just ignore that email. I have no idea what it's for, but your site's certificate has been renewed 1 day after you received the email.
How do you know/check?
Just want to make sure everything's in order and that the site doesn't break in a month
Open your site in a browser and view the certificate

these?

yes
Alright well thanks for the tip, just a bit annoying to deal with and a little scary haha
Just received another email about this issue, and still getting the same forbidden error while trying to verify it, any help?
