@zubr Are you using the SIM change from My Account-.> Change SIM card?

did you pick sending the 2FA code to your email or old SIM?

If you haven't try sending to email yet, try that option. And make sure you check the Junk mail folder

@zubr

Worst case scenario you can contact customer support and after answering 3 out of 4 further verification questions they will perform the sim swap for you. But have you resumed your service via lost/stolen before you attempted your sim swap? If not resume your service and try again.

To contact customer support click below:

To pre-verify your account include your full name, address, email, phone # and 4 digit acct pin #.

Since the automated system is not working for you, please send a private message to CS_Agent with your account details so they can get your SIM number changed in the system.

@zubr - so, you are just trying to swap the SIM number on a lost or damaged SIM card, right?

Can you try again through your Self Serve Change Sim Card feature?

IF it does not work, ask CSA's for help. Contact them here: https://www.publicmobile.ca/en/on/get-help/articles/contact-an-agent

Try the change SIM link again in 'my account' and if still it doesn't work, send a direct msg to support agents at CS_Agent.
