I tried three times to purchase the upgrade for my space, but each time I get blocked with a message that says something like: “Your account needs further verification, please submit a ticket to customer support.” What should I do?

I am not able to upgrade my account and I am prompted to contact support as my account needs further verification. This is a bit of a timely matter and I would love some help.
It also just is very difficult to even contact anyone in support, so it would be helpful if that was more easily accessible.

Seriously how can this level of platform have this issue that clearly needs to be resolved!!?? I am trying to upgrade to Starter to enable password protection for a client folder (fairly urgently), and I am getting this notification “Your account needs further verification, please submit a ticket...” --- absolutely ridiculous.
