Cannot add cards back to apple pay after restoring.

I had all my cards on apple pay until yesterday. But yesterday I thought to restore my phone as new and since after doing that I can't add any cards back to the apple pay. When I enter all the information, It says verifying and then displays a message that says "Card could not be added. Please try again later or contact the card issuer for more information."

Sadly my Scotiabank Amex (Canada) is not working with that particular fix. I would give my provider the benefit of the doubt however in this case the rejection process seems to be happening at the very last moment when it *should* take. (After the terms and conditions are agreed to). All other compatible banking products work just fine. I just tried your method a third time and it just will not work. Fortunately I don't take these things too much to heart and am patient with new technologies :) thank you just the same. Your efforts are very much appreciated!
