Default Just got a new fishing licence... with a new WIN

So I bought my fishing licence a few weeks ago at Cabela's and today I got a brand new card in the mail. I checked my licence and yup, I now have a new WIN number different to my old one, which I didn't pay for (although I paid for the licence).

Has anyone else ever had this happen? I'm thinking I can probably just use the new one, but no idea why this happened (although I remember the girl at the till had problems looking me up by my DL#)...

I had something similar happen to me, they just couldn't find my account and made me a new one.

I ended up speaking on the phone with one of the girls from albertarelm and they were able to merge my win accounts.

If you have any draws are priority points I would check on that make sure you're not losing them

This was my first thought and concern as well, but it should be easy to fix as mentioned.

Good point I hadn't thought of that. I'll give them a call. Thanks!
