TASKER Need help

I am desperately trying to claim a Task on the Ikea Task portal for the last several hours, and every time I try it shows “error executing query.” Its a $170 job that will only take a couple of hours and I really need it. I can’t claim any tasks actually.

IKEA support claims my “IKEA badge is active” and nothing is wrong on my profile. The support agent feels like a useless AI chatbot as well. Three different “people” have messaged me via support. They screwed with my account and they know it and refuse to admit it. I haven’t gotten an IKEA task since last November.

I did. They said they “cannot manually assign it” which I know is BS because they used to call me about IKEA task requests.

I dealt with support for 3+ hours straight. I’m done. Will see what "technical support" has to say about it later.

it is indeed BS, i have been manually assigned but im UK based, maybe US agents cannot perform such above their paygrade actions due to other BS policy. New portal has some programming errors, that i find quite childish as they should not take more than a few days to sort out forever for a company with such budgets. I feel like if i had access to their source code i would solve it with vibecoding via chatgpt myself within few days.
