Confirmation of account

I am supposed to receive an email from Public Mobile confirming that my new account has been activated and presumably instructions of what to do once the sim card has been inserted into the phone

Is there not a confirmation of information and your pin number!

@a7r7t7 

The only time PM will email you once you have activated your PM SIM successfully.

The email will say something like Welcome to Public Mobile to the email address you registered the SIM on.

 

Did you activate your SIM on this link?

You can pick a new number or port your old number over from your old carrier.

@Alexandf  what is OP asking CSA to do here? Check if an email was sent?

 

You may or may not have received an email if you activated a Public Mobile SIM card @a7r7t7 .

1-were you charged for the SIM card activation and choice of plan?

2-can you log into your My Account?

If yes to both or either above, then you activated.

 

If you are porting from another mobile provider leave your old provider in your phone to receive the SMS port approval text.

See helpful info. here: https://www.publicmobile.ca/en/bc/get-help/articles/port-fraud-protection

 

If you activated with a new number, then insert the public mobile sim card into your phone and restart the phone.

I'd suggest a network reset of the device is a good idea when activating with a new provider also.

 

Just make sure your phone is unlocked and compatible with Public Mobile. If no services in your phone, find another phone to test if any services work to rule out or identify a device issue.

Hi @a7r7t7 actually not much instructions need.  Just put your sim card un the phone,  try make an outbound calls.  Also check of you receive inbound calls

 

And did you request porting?
