    Hi Sohail, 

    Can you try these tips and see if it helps?

    Some of the related issues that we encounter has to do with spaces or special character (such as using the dash symbol) being entered on the required field so you want to make sure to enter your complete phone number with no spaces or special character. 

    Hope this helps!

    All the Best,
