Can't activate new phone

I'm a longtime Virgin member. I just upgraded my phone (to a Samsung s23). I login to my Virgin account, go to activate my phone but nothing happens. When I click "activate" I can see the button highlight, as if it reads I tapped it, but nothing happens at all. No moving to a new screen error message or anything. Any ideas?

Super frustrating. I restarted it, logged in and out. Even tried going back to my old phone again but nothing works. Please help.

Hey there @Bmuzz and @munro

Welcome to the Community and thanks for your posts. 

As the Community is a peer to peer assistance channel, it would be hard to determine the cause, however we will be happy to help where we can. 

To get started, a few clarification will be needed; 

  • Which browser are you trying to use? Have you tried a different browser (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari, etc.)?
  • Is your pop-up blocker turned off? If on please turn off and try again.
  • Have you tried to clear your cookies and cache and try again? If not, give that a try.
  • Have you tried turning your browser in incognito mode? If not, give that a try.

Looking forward to hearing back from you.

Do you finish the install at your end?
