Check that offer's small print. It could be that when you go to check out amount will be $0?

Who offered you free SIM?

The SIM's through Public mobile WERE free, I ordered it!. I never noticed any text or email about this, just here on the forum.

But now I see them charging $10.

PM will be bombarded with shipping out free SIM's (from the free period time). I'm curious what the Community Forum will look like in over 10 -15 working days!!

@Beth27

Unfortunately, the free PM SIM was only for one day on Tuesday, March 14. 😭

I checked on Wednesday and it went back up to $10 but it is still on sale at Canadian Cell Supplies online for $5 and $8.99 at Amazon.

Hi @esjliv you came to the party too late, it was free on Tue and Wed. ( @BKNS27 , it was free yesterday, too, I ordered on yesterday)

HI@Lieux But the page said till March 31. So, they already have enough order and closing the deal soon?

@hTideGnow I don’t know but the fact is it’s not available today anymore.

It would be interesting to see how many of these SIM cards get actrivated. I did see something on the Public Mobile website advertising free SIM cards, but I suspect that many were ordered purely based off of the text message sent to existing customers. A portion of those SIM cards will have been ordered just because there was no cost to the customer, but it could potentially lead to some additional lines being activated.

HI @esjliv glad you got one (one each order LoL). This is why we stick to the Community, we deserve some freebies 🙂

@esjliv So you ordered more than once on Tuesday? Was it to the same address? I would have thought PM would restrict the free SIM to one per address at least..

Interesting, since I had 1 zero dollar sim still in my cart, I was able to "inspect" the "data-inventory-qty" attribute just now, which returned "-7324". Now that I removed it from my card (maybe a dumb thing now haha, should have gone through with an order!) I can only add the $10 variant again, which has that 1.3 mil value...

So it would seem that 7324 was the final tally of free SIM orders... 🤓
