Sorry, you've reached your maximum limit of Lightsail Instances

Question

I can't create another "Instance" as I get the following error, "Sorry, you've reached your maximum limit of Lightsail Instances : 2. If you're new to Lightsail, please try again later. If the issue persists, please contact Customer Support."

Why is this and how do I fix this?

Answer

You can request quota increases if your usage within a region exceeds the Lightsail quotas. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/lightsail.html .

Answer

I have the same issue, but I am unable to contact customer support as I'm on the Free Tier. Is there anything I can do?

Answer

You can contact AWS Support regarding account-related matters and costs.

Please contact AWS Support by opening a case under "Account and billing" to increase limit.
