Can a human being please activate my SIM?

[Wownothankyou]

Bought the ESIM option because the website said my phone was compatible. Downloaded the app. App says my phone isn't compatible. Customer support advised me to buy a Public Mobile SIM card. Now I have one of those and I can't find a human being who can activate it. 

Is there like a link I can use to talk to a human person? Sorry but this is one of the most annoying customer service experiences I've ever had in my life, and I once stayed on hold with the CRA for four hours nonstop.

Thanks!

then don't use the app to get support.  Instead, message them using this link:

When I try the app these are the options I get:

"Get Support" just takes me to the robot.

When I click "activate your subscription" it just takes me all the way to step 6 and tells me my phone isn't compatible.

Thank you, I'll give that a try but I'm very forgetful so getting things resolved through forum DMs will probably take a very long time. Is that the only option?

If my SIM card can't get activated at all is there a way I can cancel this service? I don't love this experience so far.

Hello @Wownothankyou 

Because you originally purchased a eSIM, the CS Agent has to manually change it for you. They usually respond within a few hours. Because it is getting late, they may reply first thing in the morning. Just know, you'll have upwards of 48 hours to respond to them or they'll close your file. So, set yourself an alarm for tomorrow morning to check your DM.

not very long, usually things got sorted within couple hours

but did you try my suggestion to get the code via email and voicemail?

check again if the esim already installed on the phone.  The error might means the app just cannot enable the esim.

if the Public Mobile sim is there, enable it or Turn on this line

if you need PM helps, message them
