HELP!!!! can’t finish my assignment, my free AWS account can’t create an ALB
I’m using an AWS Free Tier account, and everything else seems to work fine. However, when I try to create an Application Load Balancer , I get the following error message:
I suspect this might be because I initially added a prepaid credit card when setting up my account, which may have caused some restrictions. I have already replaced it with a normal credit card, but I still cannot create an ALB.
Because of this, I’m unable to complete my assignment before the deadline. I’ve already submitted a support case to AWS, but I wanted to ask here as well, is there any other quick solution?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much!
