@eghale Worked for me with those same details. The docs, suggest

Wait several minutes to see if you are able to successfully sign up with the email address or try a different browser. If your browser has an auto-fill setting, try turning it off—it can fill a hidden field that we include in the code to prevent spam signups.

We can remove the said hidden field, but it increase the changes of spam sign ups.

Yeah it's the same issue we faced last time. I don't think it should be too much of an issue if we remove the spam filter... Perhaps worth a try anyway. I'd rather do that than get more people trying to sign up and emailing us when they can't (which is as annoying as spam imo).

Sure thing, have removed the hidden field https://github.com/TechforgoodCAST/cast-website/commit/da8b9ec2be56e12917d12d1fc8d2b3a295ddd444.
