Hi @rachel-morrison no fees. Just need to pay $10 for a sim card. Get it from Trlus or Koodo store.

@rachel-morrison Which bank gave free sim cards? Were they Public Mobile sims? There's no promo for free sims. A bank employee probably had extra or it was for a different carrier.

@rachel-morrison What fees are you asking about?

PM is prepaid so you pay for your SIM card (unless you were gifted a free one, which you say you was) and whatever plan you decide to pay for at activation. Then you are covered for the next 30 days and will have to pay again on your renewal cycle. Depending on the plan you select, you don't pay any extra fees/overages if you run out of data or minutes before renewal but will just not be able to use those features until your plan renews again and everything resets.

You do have the option to purchase further add-on minutes or data to keep as sort of insurance to use if you run out of data or mins before the new cycle. The add-ons don't expire and will stay on the account until depleted.

HI @rachel-morrison Sorry, PM never team up with any banks to give free sim card. So, you will have to buy one for $10

Just curious, since last Thur, this question about any activate fee has came up multiple times. Never seen that asked that often before. Was it asked by someone we know? 🤔

HI @rachel-morrison so, the bank gent told you about the bank fees? That makes sense

Or the bank agent selling you phone service?
