@Kathyboulet Sorry, but only the moderators who are employees can issue refunds. Usually, everyone you talk to in a forum message thread will be customers.

I read through your original post in another thread. Tomorrow morning when the chat line is open use it to activate your sim. Once activated contact PM rep Catherine_T to dispute those 2 charges using the email system in the community.

Here is the link for live chat activation:

@Kathyboulet

Did you try the online activation assistance link I recommended about 14 hours ago?

It's the one @JK8 also recommended again here in the prior post. You won't be able to reach them at this time, but you will if you try during their posted operating hours.

Sure sounds like a challenging situation @Kathyboulet, and one I might not want to be in either.

Sorry things don't appear to be going as you might expect - this is not the typical experience.

Thank you ill try that..

@Kathyboulet It's possible that the charges that you are seeing online are holding charges and not actual charges.

If you tried your sim in your device and it is not activated more than likely those charges will go away.

mm80 — Fri, 04 Dec 2020 10:20:41 GMT

@Kathyboulet if you try to activate again, does it say invalid sim card? Saying that indicates account opened already.

Re: Sim still not activated but charged twice.

darlicious — Fri, 04 Dec 2020 11:01:47 GMT

@Kathyboulet

Take @geopublic and @mm80 advice. If the sim card allows you to continue with the activation then the charges to your credit card are just pending and wont be posted to your account. If the sim card gets the invalid sim message its been activated but not provisioned correctly and you will need a moderator to fix it for you.

Open a new ticket. Wait times are longer than usual but you should get a rexponse by the end of the business day
