Is there a trick to registering the Visa cards online? I am getting an "Internal Error, please try again." message each time I try to register a card.

Got my first shipped order from Simon. Shipped by UPS, and they just left the package on my porch where anybody can take it. Should I get UPS to hold it for pickup? Or is the fact they don't come activated enough of a security measure?

Yea, I wouldn't worry about it. It would be hard for them to activate them.

Can I add spouse/P2's (different first and last name, same address) card on my simon account and place an order with it? Will they approve if I add a card on a different name? We dont live in a simon state and only P1 (me) have a approved online account. Anyone has experience? Just need to use for 1 order to hit MSR
Adding me as an auth user to P2 and waiting for a card is not an option since we totally forgot about MSR and needs to be met by Monday : (

my on-line acct is temporarily deactivated after >1 yr dormancy; simon insisted that i must visit a local store, more than 50 mile r/t, to buy a minimum $3k first before they will re-activate my online acct claiming that everyone has to do the similar… so wait, for those folks don’t have a local store in the city or state, simon also denied or refused requests for service or to sell as well?

Thanks for the reply. When entering card information, can I ask if you entered your name (to match simon account name) or P2's name on the card?
