Account Verification Email for Shopify Store

[ThePeopleStack]

I just tried changing the email on our store. I keep getting a banner that says I need to verify the email, but I am not receiving any sort of email verification. I've tried several times and even clicked the resend button. What is going on?

If you're not getting the email, then it's likely that the email is bouncing, or your email is blocking the verification email from getting in. If you're using a custom email, then I'd check to ensure that you have it set up correctly. 

If your email is set up correctly, then I'd recommend contacting our Support so they can speak with our Technical Support. They can look into the logs to determine if the emails are being sent and if they are bouncing back. Once they know that, they can provide additional steps on how to troubleshoot this further. 

While we’re not able to provide account-specific support via the Shopify Community at this time, we’d be happy to continue assisting you through live chat, email, or callback. Please visit https://bit.ly/3cJkx8V and log in to your account to create a support request.

Since this is the next step I've marked this reply as the solution for the benefit of others who may discover this topic. Thanks!

I tried contacting support for this. You no longer offer phone support and chat support is broken/not functional. Pretty disappointing, and considering moving our site elsewhere since you don't really support your paying customers!

I am aware of how to access chat, but it is buggy and broken and the chatbot runs you in circles and won't let you talk to a human.

The link I sent is not the default support link and you will not have to engage with the chat assistant at all. You will be able to bypass that and it will connect you with a human advisor right away. Please try connecting to our support with the link I sent at your earliest convenience so our team can help you as soon as possible.

Hello - I just wanted to weigh in and say that the direct link provided worked like a charm. I was able to share that I wasn't receiving the verification email and have it resolved in less than 5 minutes. The link from above that worked for me is this link.

The Shopify tech said, "I can confirm that your email address was internally bounced. I just removed the block, so you should be able to receive the email confirmation now." Success. Thank you.
