That's unfortunate. Try sending a private message to the @CS_Agent and they should be able to help you out. Include the complete SIM number in your message to them.

Hi @ellen14,

Have you tried using a different browser or if you are using Chrome, try using incognito mode to activate the SIM? If these two tricks don't work, you will have to message the Moderators for further assistance as @KMG mentioned above.

I had this same problem but using a different browser solved it for me. My husband also had the same problem and clearing his history/cookies/site preferences etc. worked for him. Hope it works for you too!

The moment I enter the SIM number at "https://activate.publicmobile.ca/" I get the message Invalid SIM. Have tried Microsoft edge, Chrome, fire fox and even samsung internet browser.

Nothing seems to work.
