Trying to unlock phone to accept a different sim card

@Bdawgbyers 

you have an iPhone

If the message is "SIM network unlock PIN" or "SIM ME lock code NP" or "SIM not Supported" or on an iPhone's About->Carrier Lock showing "SIM locked"
          You have to ask the carrier where you got the phone from for the carrier help unlocking it.
           (Sorry, for this particular issue, PM support would not be able to help) 

So, where you bought the phone from originally?

Hello @Bdawgbyers 

Do you know if your SIM card is locked or your phone is locked. If it's a Samsung phone, you'd have to get a hold of Samsung to get it unlocked.  https://www.samsung.com/hk_en/support/mobile-devices/what-is-puk-code/ 

You may be able to get Public Mobile to assist by reaching a CS Agent via this options.

this is called carrier unlock code.  PM does not lock the phone.  Did you try other sim card (other service provider) on this phone and failed already?  did you buy from phone from PM or Koodo or Telus?

You need to contact the provider that the phone is locked to, they can give you the lock code

public mobile can’t get this unlocked code,

I need a unlock code so my phone can accept a different carriers SIM card

@Bdawgbyers 

what was the exact error message? Depends on the message, you have to ask the PUK code from different places

If it is a Samsung and if the message is "SIM network PIN blocked. Enter SIM network PUK." , 
      call  Samsung 1-800-726-7864 for a master unlock code.
      The only info you will need to provide is the IMEI and where the phone was purchased

If the message is “PIN unlock key (PUK)” or "Enter PUK Your SIM  Card, SIM cannot be accessed" or on an iPhone's status bar showing  "Locked SIM"
         open message support here: https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/notes/composepage/note-to-user-id/22437
          or use this direct link to open Chatbot ticket:  https://urlshortner.tiia.ai/Oyn1L6

If the message is "SIM network unlock PIN" or "SIM ME lock code NP" or "SIM not Supported" or on an iPhone's About->Carrier Lock showing "SIM locked"
          You have to ask the carrier where you got the phone from for the carrier help unlocking it.
