Canada Post doesn't normally deliver regualr mail on a Saturday. Also, the customer ordered the SIM card on Thrudsay night. There's almost no chance of the SIM card arrivng today.

While is true that you can use any valid Public Mobile physical SIM card that has never been used before, getting it through any means such as Amazon or at a retail store will cost more money. You will need to buy the SIM card. It will not be free.

Please do not do the above. Activating a new account will cause you to be charged for a second plan. To change to your current Public Mobile account to an eSIM activation, you will need to open a ticket throught the chatbot and ask a Public Mobile customer support agent for help. https://widget.telus.tiia.ai/publicmobile/publicmobile.html

Then users ought to pay more attention.
@Sara_Layli — if you pick up a Sim card from a corporate TELUS OR KOODO location, then use the self serve store to associate the SIM with your service.
You will find it under your profile tab.

Hello @Sara_Layli
It takes about 3 weeks or more to get it directly from Public Mobile. If you want it faster, here are two ways.
or
Search your closest store that will have one. https://www.publicmobile.ca/en/on/pick-up-SIM

you need the sim to activate a new PM account. If there's a Mobile Klinik in your area, they sell the PM sims. Otherwise if your cell will accept esim, you can request that right away.

Not without a sim card. You could by one off amazon and have it in about a day or 2 depending on where you live. Or you could use WhatsApp or text now for a temporary number but you need wifi
