Need a live agent’s help to change physical SIM to new SIM (physical). Lost my phone and old physical sim. Cannot use self serve option “change sim” b/c it sends an authentication code to my old phone. HELP

We appreciate your escalation. An agent is already assisting the customer and will ensure they receive the support they need.

The customer has already done all that. The issue doesn't appear to be with not being able to get into the account. The customer is having issue with the fact that the actual change SIM card procedure only sends the 2FA message to the old SIM card and there's no option to send that code anywhere else.

You can click on Resend Code or Didn’t Receive Code and have the 2FA code sent to your email so you can access your account to Change Your SIM Card number in the Account section.

Public Mobile does not have live agents. I've esclated this case and I have a customer support agent to contact you.
