  1. Good morning, I already purchased two scratch cards to register for my kids, they will be 15 in January but the registration portal is not allowing children born in 2010 to register. What can I do?
    Can someone else use the scratch card

    1. Yes, you can register anyone with the card or contact me on 08020611295 if you don’t have any one to register
