@Tinatwinings  You want to ask support to som card swap the number for you . So you can finish activating the new sim card you got kn the app 

[Tinatwinings]

Hello, so I paid $34+tax and tried to do esim activation through the app which failed 4 days ago.

After being advised by CS agent to go and buy a regular sim card to complete the activation process, I went ahead and bought one but now when I'm pleading with them to activate the sim card, I am being asked a gazillion questions about account pins and numbers which were never given to me in the first place.

And also I see a random number has been put on my account that I need to use as sms verification to access my public mobile app and essentially locking me out if it.

So here I am with $34 and another _5 dollars plus tax and 4 days spent and still without phone service that I paid for.

Please advise what to do in my situation

[Tinatwinings]

Don't get your hopes up. All l got after messaging them was activation made to a random number so they can make a 'refund request' or I go buy a regular sim card so not much help. 

[Tinatwinings]

Not sure why I should buy a regular sim even. All they should do now that the activation been pushed through and money withdrawn from me is to just email me the QR code so I can use the servicem my phone is esim compatible

[Tinatwinings]

Alright, thanks. How would I go go about transferring my account though when I don't know the phone numbers that's attached to my account?

@Tinatwinings 

it is quick and easy to get a Public Mobile sim card from local Telus or Koodo store: https://www.publicmobile.ca/en/pick-up-SIM (call ahead to confirm availability ) 

[Tinatwinings]

So after messaging, I was told to go and buy a regular sim card which I didn't want to do so I asked for a refund and was told it would take 10-15 business days longer which is longer than my trip in Canada.

Now, when trying to log in to the account I see it has been activated to some number as it keep asking me for SMS code to verify it when logging into the account which I don't have access to.

Not sure what to do at this point stuck without phone service and without money 😞
