Cannot Add Domain - Domain Previously Registered to Another Cloudflare Account

What is the name of the domain?

nightingaleforgovenor.com

What is the error message?

could not run legacy post zone sub request against new zone products: failed to update user subscription: failed to apply object products: You cannot add or modify subscriptions or services until the outstanding balance is paid. You should be able to do so in your Billing page.

What is the issue you’re encountering

Hello Cloudflare Support, I recently purchased the domain nightingaleforgovenor.com from an expired domain marketplace. When I try to add this domain to my Cloudflare account, I receive the following error: “could not run legacy post zone sub request against new zone products: failed to update user subscription: failed to apply object products: You cannot add or modify subscriptions or services until the outstanding balance is paid.” It seems the domain is still associated with a previous Cloudflare account that has an unpaid balance. I am now the legal and current owner of this domain, and I would like to request that it be released from the previous Cloudflare zone/account so I can manage it on my account. Please let me know if you need proof of domain ownership. Thank you for your assistance.

What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?

The domain itself would have been removed from the Cloudflare network long before you had the chance to buy it. (Previous registrar was GoDaddy.)

But any previous history (eg outstanding bills, ToS violation, etc.) remains in Cloudflare’s database to prevent account hopping and further abuse.

Unfortunately, the community cannot help with account or billing-related issues. You need to open a support ticket for Cloudflare support staff to assist you with this: https://dash.cloudflare.com/?to=/:account/support

Good luck!
