It said my code is inactive and I should wait. Looks like it got activated sometime over Shabbos.
so then I'm probably doing something wrong

Yeah, they seem to be doing some sort of manual verification.

I still can't figure out why I never got my code. I've been verified since Friday.

Had the same issue. Chatted with them today through the business account and got the following response:

"I do apologize, it seems we would have had to send you an invitation email in order for you to receive the free Echo Dot. If the offer was not extended to you via email it is not valid"

As of late, Amazon offers are mostly targeted. The OP should put either a "targeted?" notice or a "YMMV" notice when posting about an Amazon offer. I went through the process of opening a verifying the account for nothing.

I wasn't targeted and yet it worked fine.

Updated the title though.

Same here but let's see it actually ship
If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

Update: the rep contacted me via email and said that she looked into it again and that it can take 72 Hours to get the code...

Does the Business account email address have to be the same as the email address that the code was sent to?

+1 wondering the same thing, I got the code from one email but don't want to use it to create my business account.
