Can't activate

Hi,

I've spent the past day trying to login to public mobile and activiating my account that I got from Black Friday. This has been the worst experience I have ever had with any provider and zero lack of support. Right now I am just at the point that I just want a refund and will stick with my current provider. The thing is I don't even know how I am suppose to do this? 

Thanks

I have had the same experience.  If I could get my money back, now, I would...except I can't find anywhere on the site to cancel.  Absolutely Horrible service!  Good Luck to both of us.

HI @Jameson007 if you login to the app now, you should be asked the sim card number , and after the sim card number is registered, it is when the service will start working (maybe after one more reboot)

So, try it, if same, support can register the sim card number for you and refresh your account

  please submit a ticket with CS Agent here:

It is a physical SIM that I received in the mail.

Hi @Jameson007,

If you are stuck on Step 6, I suggest that you submit a ticket to Customer service. Explain them the issue and they will resolve it for you. Don't worry! 

Here is the link that you can use to submit a ticket directly to a Customer Service agent:

Please be sure to explain the issue to them. They will respond to you in your community inbox to check it from time to time. Due to high volumes, the delays for your ticket can be 24-48 hours.

HI @Jameson007 

which stage you are at? did you ever use the app to complete the activation? if you have only used the browser, then you have not completed the activation yet.  Download PM app from app store and login to complete it

if you already gone through the app and got to step 6, then may I ask if you are activating eSIM or physical?  Let us know

and you can also submit ticket with CS agent by messaging here:       https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/notes/composepage/note-to-user-id/22437

Hi @Jameson007,

Sorry to hear that you are having difficulty with the activation of your service with Public Mobile. We could help you get back on track!

Do you have a physical SIM or eSIM? What was the last step you remember performing?
