New Activation

[angelaF]

Good evening,

I am trying to activate a second SIM card, (New Account) I am using a different email address but the same name. I have added a referral code as well.  When I try to activate the account (last step) I get an error stating that I should correct my Credit Card information or use another Credit Card.  I have triple checked the card information including the appropriate postal code,  I've tried using my husbands CC as well but I am still getting the same error message.  I have tried repeating the process several times as well SIMon is not able to assist.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you

Thank you for the suggestions, I am on a desk top.  I have reached a support agent and hopefully they can assist me, otherwise I will try incognito mode.

@angelaF please try using Incognito mode or try on another device again..  Preferably try on a desktop computer and that could make a difference

Make sure the card hasn't been charged before trying again.

Also ensure the credit card or Visa Debit card is issued by a Canadian or American financial institution and is registered to a Canadian or American address

You can also use the live chat service for SIM card activations.

Public Mobile has web page cache issue so you might be looking at obsolete status. Click on little spinner refresh icons lower down. Try using different browser. Try Incognito/private mode. Clear browser’s cache. Try forced refresh. Use computer and not phone to log in.

Try logging into the website using a browser in incognito or private mode instead.

Try doing the activation on another device like a computer or laptop instead.
