    Aug 26 · 11:29 PM Buffer

    We're aware of an issue affecting login for some customers. Verification codes sent by email may not arrive, or may not be accepted when entered. If you're waiting on a code, request one and wait rather than requesting several, as only the most recent code will work. It's also worth checking your spam folder.
