Hello VISHAL V, I understand you're having a tough time with your Azure for Students account verification and the credits not being applied. Here's what you can do:

Verify Academic Status: Make sure you verified your academic status using your organization's email or any required documents as stated in the Azure for Students eligibility criteria. If you believe that you've already done this, it might be worth trying again or checking if there were any issues during the process.

Check Status: Log in to the Azure Sponsorships portal to confirm your verification status and see if there are any notes regarding your account or credit application.

Re-validation: If your status shows as not verified, follow the re-validation steps outlined in the relevant documentations. Sometimes, it might require proof like a student ID or transcript.

Contact Support: If all else fails, the best route might be to contact Azure for Education support directly for assistance. They might be able to manually check your verification status and help you get your credits.

Hopefully, this helps you resolve the issue! If you need further assistance, feel free to ask.

Hey there, VISHAL V

verification status is showing not verified even though i have verified it.

Please can you tell me if you verified it through the email link sent to you when signing up for the Azure Student subscription?

Sometimes the verification process can take some time if the system can not detect that your email address used was a valid email address for your educational institution. Please can you confirm that the email domain was ending in a .edu ?

If may be worth signing into the Azure portal on the cost management service here: https://portal.azure.com/?l=en.en-gb#blade/Microsoft_Azure_GTM/ModernBillingMenuBlade

If you look towards the bottom of the page, where it says 'Your subscriptions', you will notice the table showing your subscriptions attached to your tenant.

Please can you check that you have the subscription attached to your tenant?

Thanks,
Nathan
