Need Help: Cannot activation for New Mac, too

I am a Parallels Desktop 17 user, upgraded from V16 and have keys for V17&V16.

Parallels Desktop has been logged out of the old machine.
However, when activating on a new machine, there is a problem that "the old activation key has not been accepted by the license service" .
 
5 days later no further response from Parallels. They are blocking registration of legally obtained legacy product licenses, no doubt, in a effort to get users to upgrade.
 
I'm going through the same problem. I needed to format my Mac and I can't activate Windows

Hello @hugo13
Thank you for your feedback.
Please note that you purchased an Upgrade license(Will require a previous key to confirm the upgrade key) instead of a Full key (Do not require any previous key).
For more information regarding key types, please consult this article https://kb.parallels.com/en/115399.
As checked on our side, your purchase has already been refunded. If you would like to purchase a full key, kindly follow this link.
Thanks
 
Cannot activate upgrade license key that had been in use on old mac. Have a new mac and don't have the old (Parallels 14) license key available to activate the Parallels 17 upgrade license key.
