Add site error “zone name provided is subject to a hold which disallows the creatio

When I am trying to add a site via add new site its throws error as following “The zone name provided is subject to a hold which disallows the creation of this zone. Please contact the domain owner to have this hold removed.”

My domain: wyethallbrands.com

I contacted Cloudflare, they sent me a Record TXT and asked me to add it to the domain name. I did that and still can’t use CF. I need some help?

This means the domain is active on an existing Enterprise account and they disallow it being added to other accounts. As it says in the error you can contact the domain owner. If you own the domain you can change the nameservers away from their Cloudflare account to try and force deactivate their zone. If those approaches are not viable you may contact support.

After adding the record you need to reply back to support and tell them such. They will then proceed.

After I updated the TXT record, I still haven’t received a response from CF
