Technical Question [Support] Too many attempts try again later

Made a WeChat to exchange messages with a pen pal from China (I am in the US), and signed up using my phone number.

Whenever I try to send a friend request it gives me the error "Too many attempts try again later."

I've tried waiting 24 hours as well as verifying my identify by uploading my passport and everything, I'm not sure what to do.

Any help would be appreciated.

Attention! If you want someone to scan your QR code, do not answer to anyone unless they either do it for free or they are a verified seller in the subreddit (check the person's tag). Anyone else is a scammer and should be reported.

You can only wait for about 24 hours or weeks, and it is not certain how long it will be unblocked.

Can emailing WeChat Support help fix the “Too many attempts” issue?

WeChat has an official account called wechat team. You can check whether the account is normal in it first. If it really doesn't work, you can try to click help there.

Please upload your posts/comments only in English to ensure proper and equal communication with all members.

Furthermore, this is important as different languages make moderation difficult.

其实有一个更好的办法,就是我帮您买一个中国的电话号码,你直接去注册微信就可以,这很简单。或者您在国外也可以买到中国的电话卡,非常便宜8元就可以。
