@Pirate1966

do you know the 4 digits account pin for used on the phone? If so, call *611 or 1.855.4PUBLIC from another phone and make payment that way

if you don't know the account PIN, then you need to find a way to get back into My Account

PM just changed to a new EverSafe login system and you need to complete the setup on this new system.

Have you login to My Account since EverSafe was introduced?

If you have already created an EverSafe id, you can ask the code to send to email instead
On the screen it is expecting you to enter the code, click Resend code and then choose Send email

If you have not created an EverSafe id yet, you won't be able complete the part to link your My Account with the EverSafe ID, that needs a working phone with a working PM sim using SMS. (Sending the code to email would not be a choice until EverSafe id is fully setup)

Try these workarounds, it could bypass the SMS in linking My Account with EverSafe ID

Reset your password to self service account. Once reset, sign in again with new password. Might be able to receive 2FA via email instead to gain access.
(!!!You will need to click Resend Code and then Send email to trigger the 2FA to email)
Potential workaround (for some): If you don't have access to SMS OTP, try entering an incorrect OTP code 4 times. For some individuals, this is giving the option of an email instead.

If none of those workarounds helps, please open ticket with support by direct message here:

HI @Pirate1966

try "Resend code" and see if the option Send email is there

if the option to email is not available, you will have to submit ticket with CS agent and ask them to help

Or you can also buy vouchers from Shoppers Drug Mart and load voucher to resume the service first
