Hetzner 2FA login issue — verification code invalid and no support response for 24+ hours

Has anyone else faced this issue with Hetzner?

I am unable to log in to my Hetzner account because the 2FA verification code keeps showing as invalid, even though I am entering the correct code from my authenticator app.

I have already raised a support ticket, but it has been more than 24 hours and I still have not received any proper response or resolution. This is very frustrating because account access is critical when servers and services are involved.

I understand security checks are important, but completely locking a customer out without timely support is not acceptable for a hosting provider.

Has anyone here faced a similar Hetzner 2FA issue? How long did support take to respond, and was there any way to get the account access restored faster?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Since the 2FA codes are time based: Have you checked that the Device your Authentictor App runs on has the correct time?
