Project cannot be transferredProject can't be transferred. Failed to update project. What do I do?

I'm an owner in both organizations. But for some reason this is not working, not sure why, I get a Notification that says: Project cannot be transferred Failed to update project. Both orgs are on the free plan. The org receiving the project only has 1 active project, 2 paused projects. What can I do?

Do you have other projects in the account? You can only have 2 total free projects no matter how many orgs

Org Transfering the project: 2 active projects (one of those is the one I want to transfer) Org Receiving the transfer: 3 projects (2 are paused, 1 is active)

You keep saying Org. Do you just have 1 org in your account?

No, its two completely different accounts. I might've been referring to Organization incorrectly. The account transfering the project has 2 organizations, one paid, one free (this one has the project I want to transfer) The account receiving the project has only 1 free plan organization with three projects, two of those are pauused

How many projects live in the free org you are transferring from?

2. One of those is the project I want to transfer

I think the error is different if it is exceeding number of free plans. You might try creating a new org in the transfer from account. Move the plan you don't want to transfer there. Do not have the transfer to account a member of that org... Then try the transfer you were doing. In this case the transfer to account is only owner of 2 total orgs versus 1 + 2.
It is very unclear how they deal with this. If that does not work then contact support. You are always better having 1 active free instance in an org anyway as you get more database size, egress, etc. No one has reported any sort of issues recently with the process here or github.
