After a few repeated attempts, I usually get in.

Occurs from time time... Plain page refresh resolves this issue.

Password reset code can be received via SMS instead of email, even if the account is suspended, but logging into the account using "+" email alias isn't a problem.

I've been getting the unauthorized message on a somewhat regular basis recently.  While cache clearing and using incognitco mode can't hurt, I've found it to usually not be necessary.  When I see this message, I simply refresh the Self Serve page and try logging in again.  After a few repeated attempts, I usually get in.

Get some normal format email and ask agent to change it for you.

The + sign as part of e-mail aliases has to do with the inability for the peson to receive the 2FA messages.  However, someone could still log in if 2FA was disabled, and the e-mail alias itself wouldn't cause an that specific "unauthorized message".

Hi @rhine001 I think you can still receive 2FA with this email address.  But if you ever need need to receive 2FA code for password reset, you won't get it

 

So, it is better to change the email for long run
