I have not found a way in the new "Enhanced+" interface.
I'm sure it's there but buried inside the interfaces so only a witch with
three eyes can find it, or the designers at IBM that thought they were so
clever with the new interface........

Of course, all mine expired today. So I looked at the directions which say
something to the effect if you think this is wrong then select one system at
a time and click send help and IBM will contact you.
To enter in the CoD codes you will need to use the Classic interface unless
someone else can find it in the Enhanced Version. I cannot.
