Earlier this year, my amazon account was hacked and my cc compromised. The bank changed it but when I tried to use it, authorizations were declined repeatedly. Had to call the bank, found out there were still a few "red flags" that needed to be removed. Once done, problem resolved at amazon.
However, when some time later I tried to make a purchase on ebay, the card was declined again. Call to the bank confirmed everything was fine on their end and the declined requests were in fact authorized! Contacted ebay, after some foot dragging they had to put on a techie to check my account, do some "fixing" at their end to get the issue resolved.
Moral of the story: First contact the bank to ensure everything is ok with your account, then contact the merchant (PM) to ask them to fix whatever glitches at their end.
As mentioned by @softech vouchers from London Drugs, SDM, 7/11 and Shell stations are all immediately valid and loadable via 611 upon purchase. Dial 611 and press (1) and (1) again then enter the 12 digit pin code #. It will tell you once loaded successfully and pm will send you a text confirming it as well.
RTP (real time payments) are also available at Mobil and Canadian tire gas bars (retail outlets have vouchers at customer service but have delay of up to 12 hours) for a $1 fee.
Additional info on vouchers contributed by community members and their personal experiences can be found here:
I just click on one time payment and in the middle of the page you can click on manage my card. Then I follow this procedure....
Follow this method when making a manual payment/adding a card to the account....only use the emboldened portion of the instructions if the payment card is already on file.
Reboot your device.
Clear your browser, use secret/incognito mode in firefox, chrome or safari.
Choose replace card rather than remove card.
Copy your address from your billing statement.
Add your apt/unit/suite # to the street address. ie. 101-123 1ST AVE W, CITY, PROV.
Do not put a space in the postal code. X0X0X0 not X0X 0X0.
USE ALL CAPS if necessary.
Do not use autofill. Type everything manually.
Once you successfully update your card do not attempt your payment immediately. Log out/in then go to make a payment to pay for your renewal. Otherwise if you were not suspended I would recommend a $1 test payment. Follow my further instructions for a successful payment to unsuspend your account.
Do not try more than two attempts at adding a card or payments ( successful or not) or you will continue to get this message. Wait at least 1 hour to try a third time another hour for your 5th try....and so on....and do not make more than 4 unsuccessful tries with the same card in a 24 hour period or you will trigger a fraud alert lock out requiring assistance from customer support.
Go to make a payment. Choose the "other amount" option and add $1 more than the amount owing and submit the payment. If that is successful go back to your overview page and if it does not say active click on the reactivate button. If that works log out and reboot. If that does not work and your payment is in your balance rather than showing $1 then go to the usage or plans page. Click on lost/stolen and suspend your service. Log out/in. Resume your service. Your balance should now be $1. Log out and reboot.
@Nova77 you might want to get your voucher from London drugs and Shell , vouchers from there can be loaded immediately, while voucher from other retails might have a wait time of 24 hours
or you can do instant top from most Canadian Tire Gas, Esso, Gateway Newstands, and MacEwen locations.
@Nova77 , it is likely the payment card is being blocked due to potential fraud concerns. If your payment card is known to be working but is being rejected, click on the chat symbol on the lower right corner of the webpage and initiate a support ticket. The CSA will help to unblock it.
@Nova77 it could be PM system failing instead of on the credit card side. Autopay does fail from time to time
You can try to do a manual payment on My Account once more (don't try too many time, too many failure attempt will have it locked).
if you are in a rush to renew your plan, you might want to get a voucher and load the voucher for now. You can get a voucher from most retails like Shoppers Drug Mart or Esso or Shell. Or you might do a direct Retail Top up , but there is a $1 surcharge.
