Activation unsuccessful and I can't get my money back. What gives?

I went with Public because it was advertised that I could provision remotely and use an eSIM. My phone supports this, but after multiple attempts the eSIM install fails. Alex in support now tells me I need to go out and buy a physical SIM to make it work.

At this point, I ask if I can simply have my money back and cancel the activation process. Alex shuts me down:
