Purchased LC Student for $99 but premium content still locked

Hello,

This is my first post here, so apologies if this isn't the right place to post my question.

I just happened to stop by the students page an hour back, and saw there is a limited time offer which said -

Gather 50 or more of your schoolmates, get LeetCode Premium annually for a continued lifetime of only $99!

I read through the offer details, but found conflicting information. On one hand it said -

If your group registration does not reach 50 people then no action will be taken. No one will be charged for the premium.

While it also said -

All users who have a school email are able to register and purchase the premium at the discounted price before the deadline.

I didn't understand exactly what the terms were - if I sign up, do I get access to the premium content, or do I need to wait for the 49 others to sign up (and pay)? The limited time offer was ending on 10/13 (today), so I didn't have much time to research this offer in depth. I also couldn't find any info online about how exactly this offer works, and the LC twitter acount promoting this offer also had someone else ask this exact question, but there was no response from LC.

Anyway, I signed up with my school email, and paid the $99 fee. I got the bill receipt from Leetcode and Stripe in my student email too, but surprise - when I go back to LC - the premium content is still locked.

I read through the FAQs, which advised to check the subscription page and the billing history, both of which are empty in my case. I've also waited 15 minutes as suggested in that article, in case there's a delay in applying the premium content, but nothing yet.

Here's a screenshot of the offer page (which now says "0 days left") -

What do I do next?
