Credit card issue

[po]

Hi - I have a new credit card that I was trying to use to pay public mobile with.

I thought it was activated (I used it on an ATM but apparently also had to call a number up) but it was not. I have since activated it and successfully used it on amazon.ca - it still wont work with PM. Is there a grace period I must wait after trying it prior to activation?

With the exception of cards from the U.S., no international credit card will work at Public Mobile.

If it's an international credit card that you have, it won't work with PM.

While you are waiting for moderator, try to add your credit card again. 

The edit function does not work.  Delete the old entry if any and add it again.

Make sure the credit card address matches on your statment.
1. If you live in multi-unit building, don't use the unit # or apt#. Just use the building number.
2. If the postal code on your statement has a space in the middle, left the last digit out. PM check the first 6 characters of the postal code only including the middle space.

Good luck.

@po  Yes, if you try to add it too many times the PM system might trigger a lock that might need to be cleared by the moderator team to be able to add it. If you wish you can ask them to add it for you.
