I currently am a instant ink user and have been for years. I still use a printer that isnt even eligible for warranties, repairs, etc.
I just now seen this platinum instant ink so i immediately tried to take advantage because im also currerntly in final process of getting a home based business started as an extra income.
I couldn't find any option within anywhere of my instant ink account regarding upgrading or even mention of it. I planned on creating a new instant ink account later on for my business and would cancel this one but i went ahead and created it after initiating instant ink platinum on the hp site. No issues creating account, i get through all the steps given on starting instant ink platinum, hit sumbit and it keeps saying "failed to submit request. So wondering if i can get answers for both variations i spoke of. 1 being if there is an option to upgrade current instant ink account to platinum how do i do so.
The next would be what it the issue regarding trying to start on my newly created account. Could it be a payment related error for example, do i need a particular amount of money on my account? It says my card wont be charged upon submitting for platinum service but getting down to fine print stuff, is there a pre authorization type request its using when accepting my payment method, if so what amount needs to be in there so it comes back as i have enough money to cover the service and included printer. I can easily make my debit reflect having any particular amount its looking to see.
Then if not what else could it even be ?

Ive been trying for a whole month to switch from instant ink to platinum instant ink plan and came on here asking for help. Was told to contact instant ink by phone. So i have 3 different times, ive been told use a different browswer, different card, different account. Ive tried 3 different browsers, 2 different cards, created other accounts, used different emails and it does same thing no matter what i do, i enter all the enrollment info hit submit and it just sits there with the loading symbol and doesnt change. This is ridiculous, every time i call i get absolutely nowhere with support just told the same things over and over. How do i file a complaint, im over it. I been a long time customer and instant ink customer, my printer quit because its really old and im a low income father of 4 so i cant run out and buy a printer. This platinum subscription sounded like i would be able to keep my subscription and keep up with what i need to print but of course its always something with hp and support usually never ends up doing right by me when i have issues. Want to file formal complaint.
