Hi  @mahdipbi1 ,

Does the issue still exist? Normally, this issue is caused by:

1. Your current phone number has been used to register Office 365 service for many times. You could use a different phone number or email address to register.

2. You're under in an unsafe network environment. You need to change the Internet environment.
