Linode keeps rejecting the signups on their server saying the account is fraudulent. I am sure many users are facing the same.

Moreover even after mailing support, I don't receive responses from them. There are many cases like this

How are we going to participate?

hey Muhammad Shahzad Ali, I did also write to them but they won't respond.

However, I found out that debit cards don't work (clearly mentioned on their signup page in a footnote). I finally succeeded after using a credit card. You need to use a credit card while signing up. Also, probably a renowned credit card brand like Master, Visa, or Amex is required. For us in India, Rupay doesn't work.

Lastly, using a business email might help better than regular ones like Gmail, Yahoo, or Live.

Chilarai Actually I used a debit card issued by a USA bank and it worked :)

Omar Moustafa I have tried 3 times they still rejecting the request. I see many of the users facing this issue and don't understand on which criteria they are rejecting the request.

I am very super exiceted for partcipatting in the hackathon which as organizing with linode and.

Are You Ready for this amzing hack?

Wow, Hashnode is back with hackathons!!

But this time I will not be able to participate because of school work.

And thank you Hashnode for featuring my thoughts on hackathons :D

All the best to all the participants 👍, waiting to see all the amazing projects.

Syed Fazle Rahman Eleftheria Batsou Participating in this Hackathon is a problem due to the strict signup process of Linode. My debit card isn't accepted on their portal. It might have happened to others too, but I cannot participate in this Hackathon. Linode should have had some way for people from Hashnode to signup without debit & credit cards.

Anyway ooking forward to the next one! 🎉

This will be my first hackathon contribution in Hashnode 🤩 I'm very excited to work with Linode and create something unqiue 🚀

I already won Deepgram hackathon on the Dev Community and it was fantastic experience that I can't wait to have again ❤

Can we participate as a team?

Unfortunately no, the Hashnode Hackathon official rules permits only individual participants and no teams unless it is stated otherwise.

Hello Syed Fazle Rahman, I am unable to sign up to Linode and get the credits to work using it. The sign-up gets canceled as probably I had an account previously with the same address and cc details for billing. Kindly help me get the credits.

Looking forward to the hackathon, But I have a small question is a team submission valid ?

Super excited to participate in this hack! Thanks Hashnode and Linode for hosting this awesome hackathon!

Another great Hackathon 🔥🔥🔥

Sweet. Looks like a fun hackathon. Going to start brainstorming some ideas later today.

Another month and another great hackathon by Hashnode😍😍. I think the winners would be announced in the second week of July instead of June. A small typo that I noticed. Looking forward to build something cool 👀

There's a typo mistake, shouldn't the winner announcement be 2nd of July?

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking RN

We've fixed the typo. Thanks for pointing it out. Zujaj Misbah Khan

Syed Fazle Rahman You're most welcome.

Another awesome Hackathon. Thank you organizing such amazing hackathon which motivate us to learn new technology and services.

Hackathons are back! Thank you, Hashnode. I am definitely participating in this one!
