Adding a billing method with google cloud results in "unexpected error" - google-app-engine

I've been trying to add a billing method to my google compute engine without any luck. After inserting my Visa card details and clicking the submit button, I always get the following message:
An unexpected error has occurred. Please try again later.
I am trying to create a google compute engine instance, but without billing enabled, this is not possible. I already tried contact google cloud billing support by filling out the online support form. However, it says responses usually take 2 to 3 business days. Now, is the problem I am facing limited to my account or is everybody else facing the same issue ?

The problem got fixed several hours after I posted my question. It seems that the problem was from google's end.

You currently do not have a developer account in QBO

I am trying to obtain my production keys for my QBO app following the steps in this link
here
However, when I try to start the "App Assessment Questionnaire", I get the error message below:
You currently do not have a developer account, please click here to complete setting up your developer account. Once that is complete you will be able to access the help pages.
This is what I see, and I DO have a developer account. It won't let me continue.
Please help!
UPDATE
I see this error in the address bar:
ErrorCode=ERROR_CREATING_USER&ErrorDescription=License+Limit+Exceeded
UPDATE #2
I tried creating a brand new account, a new app, on a different PC and the same thing happened. So this is not a cache issue.
UPDATE #3
Created 2 support tickets for this issue
#00114423
#00114415
I had to use a different account to access the help site
https://help.developer.intuit.com
I've the same issue since Friday (02/18) and spent hours to figure out what's the problem.
tried from different browsers and different IP addresses
made a brand new developer account to test with it
had a 1+ hour chat session with QB support (but not developer support)
sent an email to an address received from the chat assistant
sent a feedback at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/AppAssess
According to the browser's developer tools:
the Start questionnaire button opens this URL:
https://developers.intuit.com/app/developer/appdetail/prod/questionnaire?appId=xxxxx:UUID_of_app
then it redirects to:
https://login.salesforce.com/services/auth/sso/yyyyyyyyyyy/Intuit_Enterprise?community=https://help.developer.intuit.com
finally, SSO to salesforce fails and it redirects back to:
https://developer.intuit.com/app/developer/qbpayments/docs/qbms-payments/hosted-paypage/faqs/help-redirect?**ErrorCode=ERROR_CREATING_USER&ErrorDescription=License+Limit+Exceeded**+-+Customer+Community+Login&ProviderId=xxxxxx&startURL=%2Fs%2Fquestionnaire%3Fapp%yyyyyyyyyyyyy
So, it seems to be, QB have reached a license limit at salesforce, which prevents new logins to create and the questionnaire from to load.
And the funny part is: the same thing happens, when I tried to create a support ticket and used the "Ask a question" button at https://help.developer.intuit.com/s/
Which means, I can't start the questionnaire and can't start a ticket about the error either.
I guess, if QB developer accounts whom created support tickets previously or started the questionnarie before the license limit has been reached, they have have a SSO login account at salesforce and able to fill in the form or start new support tickets, but others are stuck because of the license limit.
If somebody have a working QB developer account and able to start a support ticket, please do it, and link this page in it.
Or maybe, we should contact salesforce support to let QB know about the license limit.
I'll give it a try.
This seems to have been fixed. I tried running the questionaire and it worked.
I have also been having this problem the last several days and had the same lack of success with QB support. The URL callback error I see is:
ErrorCode=REGISTRATION_HANDLER_ERROR&ErrorDescription=Please+sign+the+terms+of+service+before+you+login+to+community
I don't see anywhere I can sign a TOS in my account page - it's possible that in fact QBO hasn't signed a TOS with Salesforce. What a joke.

Where do I find my fullfillment URL to the google home action?

I've just been started integrating assistant to smarthome project that i'm working on. And I've initially experimenting the assistant by implementing account linking flow and sync intent. I tested the account linking by testing with the google developer tool for oauth flow and confirmed it worked. Whereas, in the smarthome app, upon account linking, as soon as it completes the account linking flow I keep receiving an error message stating "Couldn't update your settings, Check your connection". Didn't find much clue with the logs for troubleshoot. And also, the solutions they were on the other posts does not seem to be working out for me as well. Would appreciate if anyone could help resolve this.
Also, I'd like to know the place where I can find the fulfillment URL that needs to be entered when creating the smarthome action. I've been using firebase to deploy my cloud functions. Moreover, I suspect weather the fulfillment URL I entered that was provided by codelabs sample were invalid thus assisant unable reach the fulfillment.
Your fulfillment URLs are the functions that you've created. For Firebase, there's a specific pattern that you can follow. If you visit your Firebase console, in the functions section, you'll see the full URL which you can copy and paste into the Fulfillment URL input.
In my example, I have a cloud function named "about_info" with the pattern https://us-central1.PROJECT_ID.cloudfunctions.net/FUNCTION_NAME. So you can use a similar scheme to identify what your function names will be.

"This page can't load Google Maps correctly."

I have an active Google Cloud Platform account for the purpose of integrating the map functions into my website. Currently I have a map on my contact page (https://voltfuse.com/contact) and on my dealers page (https://voltfuse.com/dealers).
Until recently, I noticed that the map on my dealer page is no longer working, telling me that it was unable to correctly load. You can see an image of this in the attached "Broken Map.png".
It's strange because the map is working perfectly with the same API on my contact page, which can be seen on "Working Map.png".
The code for the broken page can be found here: https://codeshare.io/5w0ez7
I am wondering if anyone has any ideas as to why the map is not loading.
Thanks,
Alex

Google has recently imposed strict limits on the Google Maps JavaScript API. You must now enter your billing information in the Console to enable higher limits for your account. As of the date of this answer, after entering your billing information, you will receive $200 worth of free usage per month.

Google App Engine - Can't Update Budget

I have billing enabled on my project, and have even issued a $10 payment just to test out the process (it works). But I am unable to change my daily budget on the google app engine dashboard.
I go to "Billing Status" section.
I am entering the new daily budget and I hit the "submit" button.
I am getting the not very informative error: "There was an error processing the request".
So I'm stuck without being able to update my budget, and my quota has exceeded for instance hours. My users are receiving errors and I am losing money, without any option of reaching out to Official Google Support (tried to email support - it can take up to a couple of days for them to get back to you, and the phone number requires a PIN that only premium customers get. becoming a premium customer also takes a couple of days...).
Any suggestions?
I have already tried:
making sure I have only one Google account signed in while changing the budget
replacing payment method
adding another user as a billing admin and changing the budget with that user
Nothing seems to work.
UPDATE: After reaching out to a developer advocate from Google, I found out that they are aware of this issue. They claim to have solved it last night, and for me the bug is now solved.

Has anyone had problems registering a SECOND app with Google App Engine?

I've registered one app on Google App Engine, and it works fine. I want to register a second app now (on the same account), and every time I click the "Create an Application" button, I get forwarded to the SMS account verification page. My number's already been used to register my first app, so of course it doesn't work. Has anyone else seen this? I'm using Google Apps on my domain, that seems likely to matter here.
Oh, and I've seen a number of "workarounds" for this issue - wife's cell number, prepaid cell from Wal-Mart, that sort of thing. I'm hoping for something a little more sustainable (for my third app, etc.)
Thanks!
I know that this has happened to others. It seems that the app engine team sometimes has to address these manually. Try filling this form out...
https://appengine.google.com/waitlist/sms_issues
You should be able to create 10 apps per account, but you can only have one account linked to each phone number.
