Hi there, @Jasonsdad1956 - were the activation steps in the resource listed above able to get you where you need to be?

[Memphis_Sound]

The information given in their own article on card activation is incorrect!

How terrible.

[AHQS]

I was able to activate my card by clicking on the link within the email I received telling me to activate my card. None of the other links mentioned previously showed up for me otherwise. Hope this helps.
