I put my Koodo Prepaid plan on hold in the end of April because I was leaving Vancouver for 3 months to fly back home. Now, the deactivation date is coming up (August 16), and I need to reactivate it again because the plan has a lot of student bonuses for a great price. When I tried to reactivate it, my payment never ends up being accepted - always the same error! (The screen shows "Oops! Something went wrong please try again later" and it never worked later on) I have tried with multiple cards many times, still the same situation. I will be arriving in Vancouver after August 16, so please help me out!!! Need that ASAP

Are you currently outside Canada? Koodo prepaid only works in Canada and the US, and subscribing or changing service while staying overseas has been a common cause of that payment error. As well, prepaid Self Serve only accepts Canadian credit cards, Visa Debit and MasterCard Debit, so a foreign card would fail every time no matter how many you try https://www.koodomobile.com/en/help/online-payment-methods

People here can't access prepaid accounts, but you can reach a prepaid agent through the prepaid portal www.koodo.com/prepaidchat

Since you won't be back before the 16th, if possible, I would also ask a friend or family member in Canada to do the top up for you.
