I've lost my SIM card. Is it possible to get a new one with the transfer of my old number?

@AleksandrGuseev I can give you a free SIM if you are in east end of Toronto (Markham to Trenton).

Yes. Get new SIM at retail or on line store and do simple SIM switch through self-service PM account. You will keep your number but do not wait too long (more than 90 days) or your account will be terminated.

How one can lose SIM? SIM usually seats deep into phone...


It can happen. 

Once I used US SIM for my stay in US and when I came back to Canada I couldnt find my SIM. 

That time I was with Telus and Telus store did the swap SIM for free. 

That time I didnt know that it is this easy to change SIM# on file.

 @Meow : My assumption is by traveling. Go somewhere else, remove the SIM and insert a different service. It's a small sliver of plastic that can easily get lost. Off it goes.

@AleksandrGuseev be sure to NOT activate the card at a store. Has to be unused to change sim number in your account.

Yes. Buy one in a store or online and then log in to your self-serve account and use the Change SIM function.
