Hello Crystal, I cannot speak as to why the code does not work for you but, after reading a previous message stating that the code does not work, even though it works just fine for me, I asked 5 other A T & T Wireless customers around the country to enter the code and they all reported that it worked for them, as well.

I wanted to be sure about my upgrade status, and get no message back after entering the code. I tried several times to no avail.
