Credit cards unable to process when activating SIM

[Deit]

I'm trying to activate my SIM and have tried two different MasterCards but both give me:

We were not able to process your payment. Make sure all information is correct or try again with a different card.

How can I get this working?

Glad you resolved it, same goes for if you have this issue in the community or in your self serve account when you are trying to purchase add ons or update a cc

Going incognito fixed it;

Thanks everyone for the help!

@Deit  - so you never got past the payment section of the activation pages?

Maybe try activating this way and by using this link to use the: Public Mobile Online Activation Assistance

Let them know you have been having issues, incase there were charges made somewhere.

Usually using different browser or incognito more resolves this issue.

Do not try to use same card multiple times due to failure to process as you might trigger fraud lock.

Sometimes failure to activate SIM might cause multiple charges on your CC so be ready for that; it is easy resolved talking to agent but you are not there yet (and hopefully will not be ever).

@Deit   Try again in another browser or Incognito mode and see if it makes a difference

If still fails, you might need to open a ticket with PM support and have them to check if any Fraud lock was on the account:
