New SIM CARD

Just a suggestion, if you are planning to activate the SIM CARD online, after you buy it from a vendor, just ASK the vendor NOT to activate it in the booth/store. They will not be happy but life is tough

@gblackma I've tried at a few places and never had an issue with just buying a sim.

Here's what you can also do which goes smoothly as well.

"""I need to buy a new public mobile sim card.i lost my phone and have to put it in my other phone.

Sir we can help you with that.

No thanks. When I get home I'll log into my account and click change sim card. I know how to do it.

Ok no problem sir let me ring it up for you."""

The funny thing is that I've seen that happening today in front of me. The previous customer just wanted to buy a SIM card but the salesperson activated it without even asking the person.

When it was my turn I just told him that I collect them untouched so there is no need to do anything
