Promotional Mastercard Not Working

I am unable to use my promotional gift card. It says it is blocked and I can’t use it.

Good morning @user_qmd0i1 thanks for joining us here at the Xfinity Forum. You have reached the right person and I can help get the answer that you need.

 

That must be frustrating, that happened to me before as well, but it was a quick fix! 

 

You mention it is a promotional Mastercard:

-Are you getting the "blocked" error in the My Card Wallet app or have you also tried to make a purchase elsewhere?

-How long ago did you receive the Mastercard?

 

 

Thank you, this will be helpful to get started.

I am getting the “blocked” error in the app. I’ve had the card for a few months I believe.

@user_qmd0i1, are you using a VPN or any ad blockers on the device?
