Buy SIM card on line, and qualify for promotion

calrbc — Thu, 01 Sep 2022 22:14:08 GMT

There is no place to buy a SIM card locally. If I order it on line today is there a way to qualify for the refer a friend bonus that ends tomorrow

@calrbc even is a bit tight in time now if no local store has it. Again, you tried calling all the Telus or Koodo store?

Amazon has next day deliver if you live in big city, if you have Prime membership

Amazon usually able to fulfil the promise , so you should be able to get it tomorrow and activate before midnight

@calrbc I think even Amazon might not be able to do next day shipping there 😞

@calrbc

Do you have a friend in the city that can get you one? And communicate the Sim number to you?

Does it not have to be in a cell phone to activate

@calrbc

Yep you're right. Two stores each in Vernon, kelowna, Penticton and then Calgary. This is so stupid of public mobile to limit the ability to buy a SIM card in a retail location.

I think there's also another member out there in your area but I cannot remember who it is? Can you clue us in on your smaller town?

@calrbc

No not at all. For a while there I was getting them activated in Toronto and mailed out to me in Vancouver when Canadian Cell supplies would offer such good deals.

@calrbc The only workaround now is that you have a friend to pickup a sim card for you if there is one Telus/Koodo store close by. Then text you the sim card number and you can activate online first. Of course, you friend would need to mail you back the sim card so you can have the serivce.
