Hi. I am a new subscriber to PM. I have been reading the forum over the past few days as I waited for my SIM card to arrive and I was quite worried about how the activation process would go.
I just want to say it was a simple 5 minute process and the Public Mobile app finished the activation with no issues.
Now, my situation was a simple one. No Esim, no porting of an existing number. Just an activation of a new sim and new phone number. This may be why there were no issues.
I bought the 30gb plan along with a $5 sim from Public Mobile. My advice, buy the sim from Amazon. I bought a second sim from Amazon and it arrived next day. Still waiting for Public Mobile sim (no tracking).
Completion of the activation requires you to use the app. You login and click the button to complete activation. It will jump to step 5 of 6. You shouldn't have to enter your credit card info again as you entered it when you bought the plan/sim combo.
Enter Sim, select your location, select a new phone number, finish the activation.
Now, to complete the process 100%, you will need to install the sim and retrieve the 6 digit code public mobile sent to your new phone number. Retrieve the code, enter it into the app and you are done.
Overall I am very impressed. I hope this comment helps anyone looking to subscribe to Public Mobile.
