Upon entering my phone number and completing the captcha, an error occurred during the process of requesting a call from AWS

Question

When I attempted to add my phone number, including the country code, and completed the captcha, I encountered an option labeled "Call me now step 4 of 5." However, an error occurred shortly after, stating: "Sorry, there was an error processing your request. Please try again, and if the error persists, contact AWS Customer Support." I kindly request assistance in resolving this issue promptly.
