Example Template
Subject:
Apply Code Button - SplunkWork+ Issue
Body:
Hi support,
I'm currently applying the code received by ACT Now Education for my SplunkWork+ account. When clicking submit on the "Apply Coupon" button, it does not Apply the Coupon. Please see the loom video below for better visualization of the issue.

After applying the primary code to SplunkWork+, you will need to allow up to 72 hrs to for your account to be synced with ACT Now Education. This happens on Splunks backend. Splunk will email you when your account is ready to go. This is also mentioned in the guide. Sometimes you receive the email before 72hrs.
All this to say is that you need to be patient and wait for Splunk to email you that your account is ready. If it has been longer than 72 hrs, then at that point you should email [email protected] notifying them that it has been more than 72 hrs and you have yet to receive the email stating your account has been synced with the organization ACT Now Education.
Request for Vouchers
Exam vouchers are available exclusively at select ACT Now Orientations or through our ACT Now Education Cohorts. Direct Messages or Emails are not an option for requesting and obtaining vouchers. No exceptions!
