Title: Cannot receive verification code (OTP) for Atlassian account login

Hello Atlassian Team,

I am unable to log in to my Atlassian account because I never receive the verification code (OTP) email.

Details:

• Account email domain: @powergatesoftware.com

• Account type: Free Atlassian Account

• Login method: Email verification code (OTP)

Issue:

• The login page indicates that a verification code has been sent.

• No verification email is received.

• I have clicked "Send code again" multiple times.

• No OTP email arrives in Inbox, Spam, Junk, or Quarantine folders.

• Other emails are being received normally on this mailbox.

Could someone please check whether:

• My email address is on a suppression/bounce list.

• There is a delivery issue with OTP emails for my account.

• There is any issue on the Atlassian side preventing verification emails from being sent.

As I cannot log in, I am unable to create a support ticket through the normal support portal.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi @Thang Phan

It sounds like you’ve done the right thing by checking with your IT team. Since they’ve confirmed the emails aren't even reaching your company servers, the issue is almost certainly a 'Hard Suppression' on Atlassian’s side.

This happens when Atlassian’s mail provider (SparkPost) flags an email address as 'invalid' after a single bounce and stops trying to send to it entirely.

The best way to fix this is to raise a ticket that doesn't require a login:

1. Go to the Atlassian Support.

2. Under 'How can we help you?' select Your account
   
3. Under 'Choose a topic' select Log-in issues

4. Select 'Account login issues'.

5. Click 'Need more help?' (you may have to do this twice)

6. In the 'Your question' field you can copy and edit the below wording:

"I am unable to receive OTP verification emails for my account ([Your Email Address]). My company IT team has investigated and confirmed that these emails are not reaching our mail servers (they are not in spam, junk, or quarantine).

Please have a support engineer check Mailtracker and the SparkPost suppression list for my email address. If there is a 'Hard Bounce' or 'Invalid Recipient' status, please manually unsuppress my address so I can receive the OTP and log in."

This should get your ticket to the right team who have the tools to clear that internal block.

Best,
Samuil

Hi, @Thang Phan 

Welcome to Atlassian community!

In such situations you need to contact Atlassian support, to check it. 
https://support.atlassian.com/
Community members can't make such research.

But in current case, when you can't login under your account, I called support to ticket, but usually they are answering in 3-5 working days.

P.S.
Also try to ask powergatesoftware company email administrators, maybe there are protection rules for incoming messages. Atlassian emails can be blocked by these filters.

Hi @Evgenii ,

Thank you for your response and for reporting this issue to the Atlassian Support team on my behalf.

Our email administrator has thoroughly checked our mail system and confirmed that emails from Atlassian/Jira are not being blocked, filtered, or quarantined. We are able to receive other Atlassian emails successfully.

I also visited the support page you provided (https://support.atlassian.com/), but I could not find any option to contact Atlassian Support directly via chat, email, or phone regarding this issue. It is possible that my Atlassian account is on the Free plan, which may limit access to support channels.

Could you please help connect me directly with the Atlassian Support team or escalate this case to the appropriate team for further investigation? I would greatly appreciate any assistance in resolving this issue, as I am currently unable to access my account due to not receiving the verification code (OTP).

Thank you very much for your help and support.

But I also called support to ticket (and I was wrong, they answer in 2 business days):

We received your request. Help is on the way! An Atlassian Support Engineer will review the post and respond on this thread within 2 business days.

Chào @Evgenii  ,

Cảm ơn bạn rất nhiều vì sự giúp đỡ và đã chuyển vấn đề này đến nhóm hỗ trợ của Atlassian.

Tôi đã truy cập vào cổng hỗ trợ mà bạn cung cấp. Tuy nhiên, tôi không thể gửi yêu cầu hỗ trợ vì biểu mẫu yêu cầu URL trang web (xxxxx.atlassian.net), và tôi chỉ có quyền truy cập vào tài khoản Atlassian của mình. Vì hiện tại tôi không thể truy cập và không nhận được mã xác minh (OTP), nên tôi không biết URL trang web nào được liên kết với tài khoản của mình.

Tôi rất mong đội ngũ hỗ trợ của Atlassian có thể trực tiếp xem xét tài khoản của tôi và kiểm tra xem có bất kỳ vấn đề nào liên quan đến việc gửi mã OTP, danh sách chặn hoặc các vấn đề khác về tài khoản có thể đang ngăn cản tôi đăng nhập hay không.

Cảm ơn bạn một lần nữa vì sự hỗ trợ. Tôi mong sớm nhận được phản hồi từ nhóm hỗ trợ của Atlassian.
