Invalid SIM card

I bought a SIM off Amazon. Last night I tried to activate the card and the session timed out. Today I am trying to activate the card and I get the message "INVALID SIM"

 

I;ve already tried waiting an hour and Ive tried ingognito mode.

Best to contact a moderator by clicking on ?, bottom right, and follow instructions to submit a ticket. Moderator wait times can vary from a few hours or less, or within a day, from my experience.

@AG_BoC Check your credit card. If it's been billed you have a partial activation and the only recourse is contacting PM as suggested.

@AG_BoC  Maybe the card was activated. Test the card in your device. If it connects to PM then you are good. If you can't access your selfserve account then click here to register your selfserve account.


If you can connect to PM then submit a ticket for help. 

To submit a ticket to the Moderator Team, please start a conversation with the Public's virtual assistant, SIMon by clicking the icon below:

Is your phone unlocked ?  Did you have a previous provider ?  If you did, you may need to contact them to unlock your phone.
