Ask HN: What is happening with the Meta Ads dashboard?

I had to set up an account today to look around, potentially setting up Meta Ads for a customer.

Through-out the onboarding, almost every step I was met with some kind of generic error or loading page that was stuck. I had to manually refresh the pages multiple times.

The ads table (which contains zero rows) is met with a toast and a banner, both stating there was an error running the query, and that I should change my (non-existing) filters.

I then wanted to login from another device, it asks me for an MFA code sent to my phone number. I did not receive one. I hit "re-send confirmation code", which then shows an "error while trying to resend your confirmation code".

What is going on?

Edit: I tried contacting support, only to be met with an auth.meta.com link that returned a broken redirect. All their support links go to the quest, which is unrelated.

Edit edit: My account is now suspended. Awesome. I cannot contact support, and I need to login to submit a re-approval. I am soft-locked. 50 euros down the drain, I guess.
