What is your source that Regions is active? Myself as well as many others are not able to add our Regions cards. Still saying not supported.
Got a tip for us?

Well I got one person after long, long wait. She seemed to know what she was doing, and shortly said you are verified, well it still shows I am not. This is not simply working, yes bugs to be expected but I have other stuff to do today, so the heck with apple pay, got the phone for camera, for me at moment apple pay is a frigging bust...
I think its only a MasterCard issue (not a Barclay's issue). Seems like Visa and Barclay is not an issue.
You are confused.
Apple is never going to have trouble getting credit companies to sign up, because Apple locks in their insane fees.
Apple is having major issues with retail acceptance. So load all the cards you want, you won't be able to use them anywhere.
If US retailers don't accept it (NFC in general) they'll just continue to slip behind the rest of the world. I happily use contactless payments all the time in the UK. A system like CurrentC would just be laughed at in any other country.
So even if Apple Pay somehow flops in the US there's still a big market for it in the rest of the world.
There's no Google Wallet in the UK either so hopefully Apple Pay will give Google an incentive to launch over here and it'll be good for both iOS and Android users.
It is a Visa; used

. Friend at work has the same issue as others here with her Barclay Mastercard in regards to the verification message within Passbook/Apple Pay staying there. Hers would NOT work even after she talked to them and confirmed it was verified, so issue is related to MasterCard as mentioned before.
I have just a debit card and had to do the same thing. Was pretty simple anyway. Glad that one is now on.
Same with my Barclay card, but I have to speak with a person.
Barclay Card NOT working
Just tried to add my Barclaycard Rewards card and it is NOT working... after the terms and conditions, I tap "Accept" and after about 20 seconds I get the message "Card Not Added. Contact your card issuer for more information."

You don't need to do that. When you activate your card with the bank, you will not need to change anything in passbook as it will update the card info automatically.
Call their Mobile Banking department. My card added without verification, but the wife's required a phone call. If you just call the number they suggest and say you want to activate it with Apple Pay, you will go 'round and 'round until someone sends you to Mobile Banking.
Were you expecting them to?
They weren't one of the banks announced by Apple; they were one of the 500 banks added between the Apple Events. Only the banks announced by Apple as launch partners were ready on Oct 20, the banks added today were listed as "later this fall".
All the other banks will, apparently, be coming at a later date.
I checked my (FL) Regions card anyway.. And it's a no-go.
Yes, as a matter of fact we were expecting it to. A previous poster in this thread stated that Regions was working as of today. Unfortunately, this is not the case though.

My Arrival+ MC activated with no further verification needed. Only "issue" is that it shows as a "regular" Arrival card without the +. Not an issue to me. Probably because my account number was assigned before my card was upgraded. I have a new card on the way because of Home Depot breach, so will be interesting to see if it shows up differently.
I did add it as soon as I saw the post on MacRumors this morning, so maybe the problem started later.

Did not know that....will see if that works!

Barclays US and Barclays UK are different banks. Same for any other US/non US banks under the same name. Apple is only working with US banks at this time. I'm sure worldwide rollout will be as soon as possible and Apple will probably go country by country. I would think the next tier will include countries where NFC payments are more the norm....Canada, Australia, etc.
My PNC debit card is now saying "Your issuer does not offer support for this card yet". I have a debit card with one of the optional team logo designs. Others on twitter also reporting their logo cards don't work. Hopefully this is resolved soon or I will opt to stop paying the $10/yr fee and go back to a normal PNC debit card.
Did you always have a "Plus" account? I had a regular Arrival card until they issued the Chip cards and they upgraded me to "Plus" at that time without changing my account number. I'm wondering if my number is still somehow coded as a regular Arrival card. Will see what happens when my new card with new account number shows up.
