Hi @CU13031106-1,

Root Causes (based on Microsoft’s explanation)
Microsoft moderators explained that 50001 commonly appears because:

1. Your phone number may already be tied to another Developer Program account
Microsoft enforces verification limits on a phone number.

2. The Developer Program signup service is experiencing an internal error
GitHub issue #222 shows users getting Code 50001: internal server error during signup.
Microsoft acknowledged this and asked affected users to contact internal support.

Ref:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/5817088/error-50001-when-signing-upto-365-developer-suite

https://github.com/OfficeDev/office-dev-program-docs/issues/222

To fix it:

1) Try a different phone number.
2) Remove or reset any old developer program profile tied to your number.
3) Try via https://make.preview.powerapps.com.
4) If still failing → email kalyaniverma@microsoft.com (official escalation contact).

@Sunil Kumar Pashikanti

I was trying to get the developer program, even though we are eligible as part of unified support, and used the new number, but we are still getting an error, not able to get the tenant. We have raised the case and it's been open for months with no resolution except the standard response "we are working on it ... "
