Just my expire date. Nowadays it’s valid up to 6 months.

Just my personal update.
1 week of waiting for the OpenAI credits

Let's see if the limit is 2 weeks.

When did you request them? It didn't took longer than 5 business days for some users. Maybe we just flooded them

Same here

Guys, I immediately opened a ticket at OpenAI on the first day by soliciting; I don't know if that's what it took to get my API's credited, possibly do that too if you want.
Just my 2 cents

<Open a ticket and inform them that you have applied for $2500 worth of credits. Request them to expedite the approval?

Request Access to Azure OpenAI Service (microsoft.com) I used this direct link and fill out the details and they approved for Azure OpenAI service. Azure OpenAI credits give access to even GPT-4 32k model.

excuse me? When you submit the form to Microsoft to apply for the Azure OpenAI API, is the email you submit a corporate email? Does the email need to match the submitted website domain? Or is it acceptable to use an educational email? If the application is rejected, can reapply? Thank you.

Yes, I used a business email that corresponds to my website domain. They mentioned that we can't apply if we are a agency, edu institution, and so on.

And yes, we can reapply if the application gets rejected.

Thank you for your reply. It seems that I need to apply for a domain name, create a website, and set up a corresponding email address.

I had a different email to the domain, and I got accepted after a couple of hours.

Is the submitted website domain different from the email domain? Is it a business email?

Guys, I have another question about activating Azure. I pretended to be an American and applied for the Microsoft for Startups Founders Hub, so my Azure account should also be in the U.S.

Can I activate it using a regular VCC? Do I need to get a U.S. residential IP, or is a regular VPN sufficient? I'm afraid of messing up my account. Thanks.

Yes, it was different, and I used a business email: [email protected]

I had to use my Credit card, they didn't accept any other normal card... at least in my experience. Dunno about the VPN, I just used my real country and some random address

This is the reason why there are selling/buying linkedn accounts happening especially in Facebook.

I just applied for my PodSwap startup for Instagram. Fingers crossed as I'm using up a lot of Ai credits.
