I'm having exactly the same problem. Already tried the steps suggested in last post, but didn't work.
Any other suggestion?
Thanks in advance

Upgrade to Microsoft Edge to take advantage of the latest features, security updates, and technical support.
In my HP Spectre x360, after installation of Windows 11, my system had problem with all inbuilt interfaces. Therefore, I had to factory reset my notebook.
Now in Windows 10, I am reinstalling Office Professional Plus 2021, but the activation fails mentioning maximum installation count exceeded. I never installed / activated this license associated with my Microsoft account in any other systems. I try requesting transfer license to this computer option, that ends with Virtual Agent unable to get Call back service.
My Office Product is named as 'Office Professional Plus 2021'.
I access Activation from MS Word - Account section, where it says 'This Product is already installed on another device'.
There is a option for 'Contact support to transfer your license to this device', which takes me to Virtual Agent.
After failing to activate, it offers to 'Talk to a person' - 'Call me back'.
But, once I give my contact number, it says 'Something went wrong on our end. We're working on it.' - 'Try Again'.
Before selecting my country, it shows some minutes waiting time for US. May be non-US numbers are not supported.
Moreover, I don't see any link for 'Activate Office by telephone'. But still I call local support number twice, after brief discussions with primary support executives, I have been transferred to technical support team, who didn't answer even after ten minutes waiting. I am not sure, where to reach next.
Any Help here is highly appreciated. Thanks!

Do you find the Activation wizard when you open Office apps?
If yes, then you could find the way that "Activate by telephone".
For more, you could checkout "Activate Office using the Activation wizard".
