  • I am trying to log onto my account but it sends me a code via text. My phone is destroyed and I I want to use a SIM card to transfer over my account. End to confirm by email but doesn’t give me the option.

This will only work if he already created a EverSafe ID, if he hasn't he is locked out of his account because it'll never show the EMAIL option and not even support can help him.

I can't believe that Public Mobile still hasn't posted a announcement regarding this, it's a huge fricking deal that they don't seem to care to address. 

There are going to be tons of people who need a new sim, who haven't migrated to EverSafe yet and are locked out and there's just silence on the issue as far as I can tell.

If you have not created an EverSafe id yet, then, you won't be able to create the ID on the new My Account without the a working phone with a working PM sim.  Sending the code to email would not be a choice until a EverSafe id is setup

Please open ticket with support and have them to help in this situation:
