    Has anyone gotten this message when trying to update, I've tried twice and gotten the same message. I have fiber so my connection should be pretty fast. Thanks.

    I'd click on Details and Restore Defaults to remove yourself from the program. Restart, and then download and install the program to re-add yourself to the beta program to see if that fixes the issue. My guess is that it's a SW glitch with the Software Updater, not your ISP bandwidth.

    Thanks for responding, It ended up working after a while, like you said, it probably was a SW glitch. Thanks though.

    Does anyone know if this new iPad has the same pressure sensitivity capability as the iPad Pro for use with the Apple Pencil?

    5:30pm EST, running 11.2 on an iPhone X and still no signs of Apple Pay Cash. Getting annoyed now. Why are we still waiting when 11.2 has been out?
    Please see, @deh2k, post below that I quoted. It looks like it will be rolled out this week over the next few days device by device. Hang tight, we will get it soon.

    The toggle and Apple Pay Cash card has appeared on my iPad Pro today, but not on my iPhone 7.  I called Apple Support and was told that the feature isn't fully rolled out yet and it will be enabled by device gradually over the next few days.  That may also explain why some people get a "Not Available" message.  I think that if it doesn't work for you now then you should wait for a few days until there's an official announcement that it's really ready.  Until then YMMV.

    The toggle was there earlier in Settings, but I kept receiving the “service not available” error. Now the toggle is gone. 
    I got this too, It showed up earlier today and when I tried to toggle it on, it asked me to login with my password. After a while withthe spinning pinwheel, it said service unavailable. Now it’s gone completely.

    Im not seeing Apple Cash card in wallet ? Am i missing anything ???
    Yes, you are missing something. Enable 2 factor authentication.
    1) I have 2FA enabled, which I again just verified by signing into appleid.apple.com. That link even shows my Apple Pay Cash balance, but no virtual card in Wallet. I also have a passcode (and Touch ID) set on my iPhone, so that's not the issue.

    2) If I go to Wallet & Apple Pay in Settings on my iPhone there is no option to turn on/off Apple Pay Cash to the black card. However, if I go to the Watch app, and then to Wallet & Apple Pay Cash those options exist. Except for the black card being available on my Watch all the other CC and debit cards I have stored are synced. Finally, despite that existing in the Wallet app for my Series 3 Watch after a screen or two of agreements during the setup it says you can't use it until you update watchOS, which doesn't have a non-beta update that supports Apple Pay Cash.


    3) Since they were rolling out Apple Pay Cash in stages to those using the 11.2 beta, not making it an available part of all 11.2 beta users, it's likely that Apple is still doing the same thing.
    Okay, according to Rene Ritchie the code is in the 11.2 release but the service won’t be made active until next week.
    I just got off the phone with Apple Support, confirmed that the service is not available yet.
    Does anyone know when the service will be available? I've chatted with Apple twice and they don't know, so I hope someone here might have an ETA.
    @lkrupp stated that Rene Ritchie stated "the service won’t be made active until next week." That seems like a viable timeline, but we still see the rollout happen in waves, even in Ritchie's sources are correct.

    You noted that you don't have the same "Apple Pay Cash" info on your appleid.apple.com page, and I haven't seen anyone else state that it's showing up in Wallet in the Watch app, so it looks like my rollout may have begun. If I get it before they open the doors for everyone else I'll try to remember to post it to this thread, which may help establish some sort of timeframe.
    Great, thanks. Please keep us updated when you get it.
