You probably don't want to share your account number with everyone. Email them here http://publicmobile.ca/en/on/get-help

Hi @ACTASWATER,

Eventhough it says activation failed, can you put the sim in your phone and check if you have service? Sometimes, despite the error, people reported the phone service was working as it should.

Did you receive any confirmation email?

Can you sign into your self-serve account? https://selfserve.publicmobile.ca/

If yes, check if your account status is active and the plan you selected is showing.

Hi @ACTASWATER, as @imm1304, please try if your phone has any service (e.g. on the phone home screen, do u see any Public Mobile?), Can you call, text or use any data? It may worth to try that. Also as @yads, please remove your account information in this forum since google search will easily find this information, which should be private to you. If you do not have any luck in the service, please use "Get Help" "Contact Us" and "SIM and Activation". Since you have the account number, I assume that you can access the online self serve. Please let them know your phone number and account number and the issue. If you port from another carrier, please provide them the previous carrier account number, IMEI and PIN so that Public Mobile can proceed with the porting. Welcome to Public Mobile.

Hi @ACTASWATER, can u log on to the onine self service and confirm that you have the plan you have subscribed. The online self service is accessed by the email that you had activated the SIM card (which you receive the email confirmation of the credit card transaction). If you forgot the password, you can reset it by answering the secret questions. After log in, you can check the "Add on Usage" to confirm.

~~Same problem here... what do I do? how do I PM someone?~~ Thanks! Nevermind.. I figured out how to PM someone now.. but... "cannot login is a known problem"? Does this happens often?

Rockdaddy22 — Fri, 30 Oct 2015 01:42:10 GMT

Send a private message to @Mansi_G let her know you can't sign in. If your service is working without any problems I wouldn't bother sending a message for now. If you need to make changes to your account she can do that from her end.

@ACTASWATER Can you let me know if you are able to use your service?

Re: HELP !! Payment success but activation failure.

Rockdaddy22 — Mon, 02 Nov 2015 00:39:17 GMT

@MaggieL It's been a known issue lately with some new sign ups. I'm currently dealing with it myself, but my service is working fine so I have no need for self serve at the moment. You can bet they're working hard to fix it.

activation error

rj — Mon, 02 Nov 2015 17:11:00 GMT

Saturday, Oct 31, 2015. my SIM activation failed after payment step.

After that when I try to log to my account using my password, it fails: "Sorry, your login attempt failed. Please try again." When I select: "Forgot your password?", I get to the page to verify my email, I get: "Sorry, we’re unable to verify your email address."

I sent emails about this problem but have not heard anything back… don’t know what is going on? Now almost more than 48 hrs are gone, after paying money I can’t use my phone and logon to my account. Is it possible that someone can help me to fix this issue please?

Thanks

I have exactly same problem too ... and looks like no one from PM is watching these threads.

Saturday, Oct 31, 2015. Paid $90 to activate my new SIM card. My SIM activation failed after payment step.

@rj,

When was your support ticket open? Has it been more than 48 hours?

Re: HELP !! Payment success but activation failure.

rj — Mon, 02 Nov 2015 18:17:04 GMT

Yes, I sent an email on Saturday right after failed activation and so far have not heard anything back.

It is unbeliveable, more then 48 hrs are gone I can’t use my phone and logon to my account..

Thanks
