I am visiting the setup page
https://partner.microsoft.com/en-US/dashboard/Registration/Hardware?step=GetStarted

When I sign in with my Azure AD account (with global administrator privilege). It returns me back to the start page and I can't progress at all pass that point. I have an EV certificate from GlobalSign, I'm not sure why it wont let me pass this point.

    I have the same problem.

    I have tried three different browsers. I have tried creating a new tenant and I also tried creating a brand new account. For the new account, when I tried to add it to the authenticator app, the app has no response when reading the QR code. So I tried authenticating using a phone number and I get the error in the attached screenshot (phone number is removed).
