Thank you for using TurboTax.
I purchased 2020 turbotax standard from Shoppers Drugmart.
I used the turbotax website to activate the purchase.
It does not accept the 16 digit code in the carton.
I retyped the code 3 times. I am getting the following message.
"Something's not right, try re-entering your code."
Please help to activate the purchase.
Can I talk to a live customer support person to help me activate the purchase
I am having the exact same problem. I will post IF I get a solution from Customer Service.
Licence code not working, and can not find a phone number to talk to someone
I bought the Turbotax Standard program at Shopper's Drug Mart. I created an account and user ID but I can't complete activation because the license code keeps being rejected. The message "Something's not right, try
re-entering your code" keeps coming up. I am entering it accurately. As I don't use Twitter or Facebook, I am unable to contact your Customer Service. This has not happened any of the other years I have bought the program but after this, I doubt I'll ever buy it again. Money wasted!
Yep, complete waste of time and money thanks for nothing!!!!!!!
had the same problem! it doesnt recognize code so i cant download product.. the code is clear as can be.. total waste of money and time!
I downloaded the paid version and my license code is invalid. It take forever to navigate the site to get the corrected code. NOT AMMUSED

Second, if you bought TurboTax at a retailer (Costco, Walmart, Staples, etc…), please make sure that you are using the code that came in the package. It may be on a slip of paper or on a scratch-off card. It is not on the outside of the box or on your receipt.
