Activation issue

I signed up for the $40 + $0 esim plan which went through on my credit card but could not get esim. Was told to contact customer service for a refund because my phone was not compatible for an esim…I cannot log a ticket as the account was not activated.  How can I get this resolved?

iPhone 12 should be eSIM compatible.

Go to your email and look for the email from PM with the eSIM QR code then scan the code with the camera of the iPhone.

@Spey-man 

iPhone 12 pro should work, please open ticket with PM support, they can resend you the QR code or assist further from here:

@Spey-man 

What model of phone do you have?  the not compatible error could just mean the app wasn't able to install the eSIM but your phone could still be compatible

Did you get to the eSIM installation step?   Either the app will ask for your permission to do it for you automatically, or you will get a QR code to install yourself. 

If you missed the step, there is a QR code in your Welcome email.  Open it from a computer, or another device, then use your phone to scan it to install the eSIM profile on your phone

Once you installed the eSIM profile, (or If you got passed that step),  try to reboot your phone once.  

If it still does not connect and if you have another active sim on the phone , disable them (eSIM/Physica sim) using the SIM Manager on the phone or remove the physical sim.  

And make sure the one associated with PM sim and your phone number is enabled
(On iPhone,  At Settings->Cellular , make sure the PM eSIM is set as Primary and "Turn on This Line" is toggled on)

Then click Reset All Networks on your phone and it will work.  (Please note that Reset all Networks will also erase your saved Wifi and Bluetoosh connections, but you just need to add them back after). Also, it is possible you have to reset it multiple times for it to work.

if it still does not work, please open ticket with PM support
