Is the phone unlocked? Was it purchased recently from a provider?

Even though CRTC mandates that all phones come unlocked, some carriers will lock the phones for first 3 months unless requested by consumer, as a 'protection' to the consumer.

Yes, it's unlocked. I didn't see it on the compatibility list but read elsewhere it's good. Just wanted to see if anyone has one

Yah, it's nearly impossible for any carrier to keep up with the device released,

However, I'm surprised no carrier has implemented a script to auto retreive results from reputable websites like GSMArena or Frequency Checker.

Type in your model number, and click here to find out if your phone works.... something like that, would be simple, and easy.

But then again, with how corporations are ran, they'll probably think it'll cost them $100,000 to make it work, where it might take a programmer a couple weeks only.

Yes I got everything up and running

Little help for new customers about the SIM card.

The SIM card can be adjusted to 3 sizes.. I didn't realize when I tried to put my SIM card in my phone that I could break it down to another smaller card. Now I'm up and running with no issues or problems.

Thanks for your share. Here's an article from Public Mobile regarding SIM cards:

https://www.publicmobile.ca/en/bc/get-help/articles/get-a-sim-card

At the moment, you can order it from Amazon for $6.99

Also some shops (like Public Mobile Kiosks, WalMart, London Drugs) have been known to throw in the SIM card for free when you activate a new plan in-store.

Your ability to troubleshoot the different sim sizes...almost qualifies you as a computer geek !

Welcome to Public Mobile.

@HappytoRetire Great to hear you've managed to work out the complexities of SIM cards. In the future, we will likely have an eSIM that do not require a physical card! In the meantime, if may be a good idea to keep the different size adapters incase you ever need to use them in an emergency and only have a old phone lying around.

Unless you have a very old Public Mobile sim card from about 4 or 5 years ago, all Public Mobile sim cards have all 3 sizes built in. You would only need to remove the parts that aren't needed or re-attach the pieces that were previously removed (dependent on the size of sim card that your phone needs).
