Thingy:91X - Wireless Logic - claiming additional 45 MB pretty hard

Question

I tried to claim the "additional 45 MB" for the Wireless Logic SIM included in the Thingy:91X delivery. 
 Unfortunately, the "claim code" seems to be only available via the printed QR code, and even more unfortunately, that QR code is printed in a too light grey. 
 That hardly works ;-). 
 I scanned it and tried to make the grey darker, so finally it works. But I would guess, quite a lot will fail.

Discussed this with our PMT and they confirm that this is an issue. My SIMs are older, and therefor have a sticker on them. The newer SIM have QR printed directly with a too light ink. They will reach out to WL with this feedback. 
 Achim Kraus said: But the page it points to has a input field "Claim Code". That's filled by the QR code. 
 Yes, you are 100% correct. This is also something that we will fix. 
 Kind regards, Øyvind

We've verified that this QR scanning issue mainly occurs on some Android phones, as their native QR scanning can struggle in certain conditions. As a workaround, we recommend using an alternative app like Binary Eye, which scans the code quickly and consistently. 
 That said, future production runs will have improved QR code quality (darker print and better resolution), and we&rsquo;re also looking to print the claim code directly on the SIM as a backup. 
 Thanks again for bringing this to our attention!
