Gift Card not Activated

Hi, I received a iTunes Gift Card as a gift from a friend. I have entered the code but got a message that the card was not activated. Is there anything that can be done to "save" US$ 50 ?

    Unable to redeem iTunes gift card not activated

    Is the store that you bought it from closely so that you could try asking them to activate the cloud properly ? If not then try contacting iTunes Support (you will probably need to give them images of the front and back of the card, and possibly its receipt) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then iTunes Cards And Codes

  • ITunes App Store Gift card not activated properly

    I have purchase more than $1000 (thousand) gift cards and redeemed them successfully, but my last 25$ (Can) App Store could not be redeemed. I used camera to scan the code, and then also tried manual to input correct code. But I get error message on iPhone App Store - " your card/code is not activated properly"!
    I am not sure what it means. Any help is much appreciated. Contacted apple customer care, waiting for their reply.

    When you buy a card the store has to activate it (they usually swipe it through the till) so that it can then be used - are you able to take it back to the store that you bought it from and ask them to activate it proplerly ?
    If not then how did you contact Support ? I usually say to contact them via this page for gift cards : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then iTunes Cards And Codes (and they may want images of the front and back of the card, and possibly its receipt)

    how i can active my apple id in first time?does it have need to gift card for activity?

    Either add a credit card or maybe another payment method will work
    or
    Create a NEW account using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.

  • Why is i tunes gift card not going to email address I sent it to ?

    I tunes gift card not going to email address I sent it to. Why ?

    Sorry, I must have missed your last response, but can you calrify what feature do you want to use in FormsCentral? There are email receipts and email notifications. If you want the user to receive a copy of the date he entered in the form, then the user needs to enter an email address in the form and submit the form, but if you want the user to receive all responses he and others submit to a form, then it's email notification. It sounds like email receipts in your case. For email receipts to work, you need to have an email field in your form and set up Email Receipts in the options tab, by selecting the email field in the "To:" field.

  • Itunes card not activated and noone seem to be able to belp

    I have been dealt with 8 different people.
    I tried activating my itunes card through online process back in Dec 16, 2013. Follow# 304731545 - junayed, nothing from him until
    Jan 3- i emailed for update - "Your inquiry is very important to me, so I have requested assistance with the issue you reported. You will receive an email after the matter has been investigated and further information is available."
    Jan 4- " I wanted to send a quick note to see if you are still experiencing any difficulties with the iTunes Store. Resolving your issue is important to me, so please don't hesitate to reply if you need any further assistance."
    THAT WASN'T MY ISSUE.... THE ITUNES CARD BEING NOT ACTIVATED NOT THE ITUNES STORE. I replied advising him again what issue is and sent him AGAIN all the attachments he needed.
    Jan 6 - "Jaimy, we are sorry for the inconvenience. As per the Apple policy, we are unable to process your query any further. I would like to request you to contact the Apple store from where you have received the gift card." (I did in jan 10th)
    - the same day i called explained my situation and was transfered 554529946 - chanile, she was nice seemed she was trying to help me but we got cut off. She didnt call me although she knew my number.
    I called again 554616314 (didnt get his name was again nice) advised to make another claim online.
    So I did 308483126- ajitesh. Submitted the receipt and picture of the card.
    Jan 7 - same email like junayed asking " I wanted to send a quick note to see if you are still experiencing any difficulties with the iTunes Store. Resolving your issue is important to me, so please don't hesitate to reply if you need any further assistance."
    Jan 10 - finally decided to go to the store (45 mins away with the winter driving conditions). I asked  a guy to help and i was directed to someone else. I believe his name was scott. Told him my situation. He said he cannot help because it was outside the 30 day from purchase. Adv to call because nothing he can do, he didnt even bother to look into my situation.
    Jan 11 - i called, spoke to a lady, about 40 mins later i was transfered to a gentleman. All in all 53 mins later, online is the only way to go about resolving this. Even thought Junayed had already said he cannot do anything and go to the store.
    I am so helpless and disappointment at the level of customer service. The effort i have to put in to getting an issue resolved.
    Noone seem to know how to help me other than "online" when the "online" had asked me to go to the store, which then advised me to call, which then advised me back to go "online"
    Can anyone help??????

    We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    If the store that you bought it from can't/won't help then only iTunes Support can potentially do so. When you've been contacting online support you've been referring to your case numbers and what you've been told each time ?
    And this is the link that you've been using : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ , clicking on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then iTunes Cards And Codes

    Hi Maura,
    You can attempt to guess the missing characters. There are only 1296 possible combinations...
    From iTunes Store: Invalid, inactive, or illegible codes: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1292:
    If you're still unable to redeem your code after verifying the characters in the code, you'll need to contact iTunes Store Support for help. You'll need to provide the activation code and serial number from the back of your iTunes Gift Card.
