@GeminiApp Hi, I am a student trying to sign up for Gemeni Advanced free offer during finals. I have been trying to sign up for the past week and everytime I do (using this link: https://t.co/GIJN7V3fPa..) I get a "something went wrong, we couldn't load this page message." Can you please let me know why this offer isn't working?
