You will need to get a hold of a moderator by clicking on the SIMon chat button and ask to contact a moderator or chat with a human. You can also click on the envelope icon and message a moderator to help you with your activation issue.

@ThomasMao 

you have past the credit card step, there is a chance it actually got activated on the backend but just front end didn't return properly

 

Check your credit card online to see if PM already charged the Plan amount

 

Put the PM SIM in a phone and see if it connects to PM.  Try making an outgoing call.

 

Also, did you request porting?

@ThomasMao  If your credit card has been charged, you likely need assistance from the moderators.

To get a ticket click https://widget.telus.tiia.ai/publicmobile/publicmobile.html and enter your question into SIMon.  Invent prompts until you get to the Contact Us button, click it and a Submit Ticket button should appear. Click it then login and pick the topic, if needed, from the drop down menu. To confirm your ticket has been submitted, check the SENT box in your private messages; click the small envelope beside your avatar at top right on your screen.

If you encounter problems submitting a ticket, you can send a private message to Moderators here https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/notes/composepage/note-to-user-id/22437, but this alternative method may have longer response time.

 @BKNS27 : Yes more info would be useful but click on My Settings then tagging and click a couple check boxes. There's one key piece in a tag the OP put in.
