Hello NVIDIA Support,
I am trying to verify my account to get API access, but I keep receiving the error: “This phone number has exceeded limits, please try a different phone number or try again later.”
I have waited and tried multiple times, but the issue persists. My account email is: victor9123@163.com
Could you please help me verify my account manually or look into this issue?
Thank you for your assistance.
There is no fix for this for one.
NO NVIDIA STAFF HAVE REPLIED IN ANY OF THEM with any solutions.
This is terrible for one of the world’s LARGEST companies worth $TRILLIONS.
New tools released when their tool NemoClaw is supposed to run agents 24x7 to identify issues and resolve them. What hope do we have of developing their Hype if a $TRILLION company can’t solve it ???
The screen you’re seeing (phone verification for API key on build.nvidia.com) is required before you can generate the NIM API key that Brev/NemoClaw and other cloud deployments need.
But right now (as of the last few days in March 2026), their verification system is broken. NVIDIA Developer Forums are flooded with identical reports:
Exact same error: “This phone number has exceeded limits”
On first attempt with brand-new real numbers
From US (+1, including people with American numbers), China, India, Canada, UK, Korea, etc.
Specifically when people try to get an API key for NemoClaw/OpenClawGo home and wait for them to get back from celebration vacations. Good luck.
I tried again this evening. It is still not working on some version of Chrome browser. So, I tried Edge Browser and IT WORKED !!!
