What is the issue you’re encountering
We purchased a Cloudflare plan for our website via our host, Liquid Web. Unfortunately, they created the account under an email address we previously used for a free Cloudflare account. We have been unable to activate the new plan - at least not in a way that actually works. And when I sign into Cloudflare, it says we have a free account which doesn’t allow for tickets or direct tech support communication. This was the only method I could find to reach out for assistance. (Liquid Web tried a variety of measures, with no success.)
What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?
We redirected our nameservers, but our free account continued to state the status was “invalid nameservers.” Cloudflare appears to be active via our Liquid Web dashboard, but making changes (such as changing the security risk level to “high”) doesn’t appear to have any effect on the site. After a lot of work from Liquid Web tech support in hopes of fixing the problem, thy eventually informed me the best course of action was to reach out to Cloudflare support to address the multiple accounts under a single email issue.
What are the steps to reproduce the issue?
Logging into our Cloudflare dashboard shows two accounts, both of which are listed as “free” accounts. Neither of the two accounts have been activated - one because there is a nameservers issue, and the other because it requires that I finish the set up by signing up for a plan.
