Yes, I have this problem too, which is why I ended up giving up, but there is a strategy for using Veo 3.
It works like this: you log in to your main account, then register on Google Flow, and say you are a student (there are tutorials that teach you how to create a fake student account, which you can link to your main account). With this, Google gives you 18 months, and you can cancel it when the 18 months are up for free).
So once you log in, you access Google's AI studio, where you can make videos on Veo 2 using images as a base. I don't know the exact number, but I believe it could be about 10. The problem is that if I upload an image that they consider invalid (like a woman wearing a low-cut dress), it counts as one video... But the good thing is that sometimes it bugs out, and when it turns out that I've reached my video limit, if I wait about 10 minutes, I can make another one. And for Veo 3, just go to Gemini, there you can make 3 videos per day on Veo 3.
It worked for me, I saw a tutorial in Portuguese on how to do this, I believe there must be one in English and other languages too.
