Confirmation

Once you have submitted your request for credit you will receive a reply requesting three random digits from your PAC.

You must reply with the three digits within 15 minutes of receiving the PAC request otherwise your request for credit will be cancelled.

The three digits must be submitted without any space between them.

For example, if your three requested PAC digits were 3, 5 and 2 you should reply to 50131 with 352
