Hi Peter, Have you tried a hard reset on the iPad? First try resetting your device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple logo appears (up to 30 seconds).
Once the Slide to Unlock screen redisplays, see if the option appears under the Send and Receive section. If that doesn't work, try what you mentioned below 'erase the iPad and set up as new device'. Sign out of iCloud and turn off Find My iPhone, then Go to Settings>Reset>Reset All Content and Settings. This will completely erase the iPad and allow you to set it up as a new device.
