I'm attempting to create a new Apple ID with a new @icloud.com email address from a new Mac user account.

I enter the required information, including a new unique iCloud email address. Attempting to use an already-used iCloud address gives a different error on a previous screen.

I also enter a phone number and receive a 2-factor code from Apple. I then agree to the terms of use.

However it then gives the error:

There was a problem creating your new Apple ID.

Your account cannot be created at this time.

What is the problem? Why can't I create an Apple ID?

This is a new Mac (provided by work), so I am 99% sure I am not hitting the per-device Apple ID limit.
