when entering a license "error contacting server request was invalid"

A RPi3B+ that has worked for years starting showing an invalid license. I tried both the license number and email to activate the device again. Both failed with the following error.

"error contacting server request was invalid"

I pulled the flash card and reinstalled the OS from scratch and during the setup when promoted to enter my license email and password I get the same error.

What can I do to get past this licensing issue? There doesn't seem to be any support option even for paying customers.

    I've created a free starter subscription for you and moved the device to the corresponding group. Please try to reactivate your device with the same activation code or your credentials now.
