I used add-ons twice this past month for travel to USA and the system worked well. To access phone calls in the USA I needed to connect with a company that still used 3G.

I would like to share my latest experience in activating a SIM card and opening a new account and plan for a new user.
The latest “innovations” from PM are simply amazing! I previously registered 3 users without any problems. Now, after paying the bill, only one option appears in the computer browser - download the application. This is where the adventure began!!!
Installing the app on my phone resulted in a web error. pages. I had to ask for help and then the same problems begin, there is still no account number, no pin, etc.
I remembered the problems with Chrome and installed a Samsung Internet browser on my Samsung phone. After that - bingo - I completed the full registration and everything worked. But I’m not 100% sure that obviously only installing a different browser on the phone and the agent from the PM helped. In any case, I would like to draw your attention to similar problems with registering a new account.

copy and pasting the posts of other members for no reason isn't helpful and is considered spam

Would it be possible to have it so that when one types in the password that one might then press Enter and it proceeds? As it is I press tab 4 times and press enter. Or have to reach for the mouse and locate the arrow and move the mouse to the big clickable button and click. It's way easier just to press enter. I'm much more familiar with pressing enter on logins.

Would it be possible to integrate the phone facial/biometrics login to the app? I really like how some apps, such as Canadian Tire Triangle Rewards, have this integrated.

Installed the app today. Won't open after numerous attempts. Compatibility issue with Brave browser app?
EDIT: I am now able to utilize the Brave browser app. It ended up being a setting issue.
