I need activation help with pre paid.

When you activate a new pre-paid service, you get up to $40 in credits; $10 at time of activation, and $5 / month if you spend sufficiently large sums.

I went online and registered my new prepaid account and then I received a text from telus saying "You have 7 days to qualify for activation credits, call #123 for more info. If you have a rate plan, the first credit will be applied within 3 days. For details on the program, visit telus.com/prepaidpromo. Free TELUS msg"
I called the number and there is NO option for the activation credit, so I then clicked the link provided on the text and I cannot find where to redeem the credit. It just asks me to set up another whole new account. HELP PLEEEASE!!

The credit will show automatically on your file within 7 days following the activation.
