bought a 5g connection for 65 dollars and top of 15 dollars for international calls
Got installed e sim but there were network issues all the time have chat history of six days tried everything there agent told me to but still no results
So I thought to remove esim and install new one by getting code again that might work as a last resort
But now they are not giving me e sim and telling me to take physical sim which by any means I can't get before 15 days even from Amazon it take 12 days
So I am scared by them they want me to pay even iam not using there sim as when sim will arrive my month will be over
Took connection on 25 th from same day had talk with agent regarding the internet issues which they couldn't solve
Plz help guys and don't ever buy there network I am thinking of taking legal action in consumer forum I'll body spent 2000 dollars to teach these scammers a lesson

Yes it appears you don’t even have to actually stay and you can get 15 days for free with 10GB but if you do stay it’s the $65 plan but can you opt in I wonder for 90 day at $55 instead . I would think so if you can just do it as trial first then leave costing you the SIM card price only . And change plan for next renewal on the 90 day instead . But it’s the first time I’ve seen that here . I’ve seen before get you second month for free in the past . But this is a interesting way to get people over to PM with a trail period
@MetaMorpheusMob , that’s a good deal but isn’t @Deejay77 in Ontario though or did I read the posts on here wrong? I thought this deal was for Nova Scotia only! Plus currently lost $80+ already that won’t be refunded!
It seems to be very poor business of PM not to make it right! Op will end up doing a chargeback with credit card/bank for services not provided!

@Deejay77 you said "I was not getting even 4 g LTE most if the time it remained on h 3g when I get a call or message or I do any call it used to switch automatic to 3 g then I have to do airplane mode to bring it back to 4g that was real pain in ass"
Do you have VoLTE enabled on your phone?
07-03-2023 07:43 PM
It shows but don't deliver that's why I was fighting with them
07-03-2023 03:53 PM
Man I can do that but they are not ready to refund my subscription charges it was 65 dollar plan with 15 dollar of top up I could port it but my money in subscription will ve gone I told them just to refund money as they don't have solution the said plain no
Any ways I am buying tybatel tomorrow and my sister is lawyer and I'll fight them in consumer forum talking free advantage of my sister degree
I have all the massage in screen shot printed and she is making a file and she states that I have pretty solid case and we are charging them for mental herrasment and financial losses I have to suffer because of there pathetic services
07-03-2023 12:45 PM
Only two can work at a time but I can switch between them according to my need so I wanted e sim so that I don't have open and close slot again and again
07-03-2023 12:43 PM
Yah they said clearly no refund once money in our pocket its your problem
07-03-2023 12:39 PM
That can't be done both international sim from my home country india
07-03-2023 12:27 PM
HI @Deejay77
So, the problem is the eSIM activation was not working and you don't want to move back to actual sim card ?
how about your other service, can it move to eSIM and free up the sim slot for you?
07-03-2023 12:19 PM
we understand your frustrations and trying to help out on your other post
Lets jump back on the other one for easy tracking
07-03-2023 11:54 AM
Just to understand better, are you trying to have 3 sims in a phone? My understanding is that only two would work in any case, unless I'm out of date. Have you actually asked for a refund and it has been refused?
07-03-2023 11:52 AM
We are all customers like yourself, offering advice to other customers. We have no control over accounts, service, etc. You already dealing with customer service agents.
From your previous posts, looks like that your case has been sent to one of the managers. Usually, they don't work on long weekends. See what their response to your situation. Hopefully, the manager is understanding and can offer you a satisfactory solution.

I have been using mobile phone connections from ages like 20 years and worst service I have ever encountered is with public
I have seem worst services over the year bit they are 100 time more then the worst I experienced
My no is not working from 2 days even after countless massage they don't give a danm
Goes plz don't take there services they are overcharging
U can get same plan in rogers and tybatell with 5g + network and coustmer care helpline
07-03-2023 11:41 AM
But thus limitations was nor described any where when u buy a connection
07-03-2023 11:41 AM
I am not talking about the time money man iam talking about the amount I paid them to activate no
I am losing that money to as they are not providing services and saving no to refund also
If u count time as money then lost almost 1000 dolars and stress of not having no for 3 days also
07-03-2023 11:40 AM
@Deejay77 with the current limitation, if customer lost his phone which has eSIM, again, PM would be able to provide replacement sim card and the customer would need to switch to physical sim card
PM is aware of the issue and hopefully going to fix this limitations soon

Imagine if you were a lawyer and charging $300/hour.
07-03-2023 11:38 AM
Man how can not provide me esim in 3 days that's ridiculous that means they are just talking money and leave the coustmer in trouble
What do they mean by system limitation when they charge u money then they don't have any limitations
If coustmer lost his phone or any thing happens any case simario and wanted the no same day they ll take 5 days to give there coustmer the no for which he paid
And you are taking there side and saying they are trying to help
Just take rogers or tellus main network the provide instant sollution on phone call
07-03-2023 11:34 AM
What about my 80 dollars gone in water
07-03-2023 11:33 AM
@Deejay77 We are just trying to help
At the moment, if an eSIm was installed but deleted, PM is unable to re-generate another eSIM due to system limitation. The issue might be able to fixed soon, but not ETA for now
If you really need eSIM, consider going to Koodo or Telus. They can arrange with PM to port your number over without a working sim card to reply the porting authentication text. So, it is certainly doable
07-03-2023 11:29 AM
I said I can only use e sim as my slots are full
07-03-2023 11:27 AM
Slots are already used I told them I bought there network for e sim only
07-03-2023 11:25 AM
@Deejay77 "take physicall sim for which I have no slot " - your phone is eSIM only or the slot/s are already used?
07-03-2023 11:19 AM
Sometimes support has issue and requires support 🙂
I tried to create a ticket today (multiple times) and I got this:
I like 'error code: XXX' meaning 'no clue what went wrong with the site'. But I am not panicking and will try later.
07-03-2023 11:14 AM
@Deejay77 usually how long can Amazon send to your place? Consider that to buy the physical sim for quick delivery
Even you are not Amazon Prime member, you can join the trial and get the Prime shipping for your first order for free
07-03-2023 11:04 AM
Now nothing works as e sim was deleted and the want me to drive to winnipeg for 3 hours and spend 300 dollars to take physicall sim for which I have no slot
They say that network is not granted in esim they are telling me after charging me 85 dollars and harassing me for 7 days
I am just scared and stuck
07-03-2023 11:01 AM
Yes man They are not giving any thing
Now I am stressed out just waiting u know how frustrating it is
07-03-2023 10:37 AM
@Deejay77 - you have had a few posts, about eSIM and 5G speed issues. Have you had anything resolved yet?
Is the main issue now your complaint about data speed? Are calling and texting services working okay?
07-03-2023 10:27 AM
They even have call support for coustmets resolving issues even technical issues are resolved through call centre not typing stupid manages for 7 days with no results
07-03-2023 10:08 AM
For the speed, you are half right.
It is true that Telus can have a full speed of 1Gbps, but, this is just 5G+ service, not 5G
Both Telus and PM has only 250Mbps for the "regular" 5G service
07-03-2023 10:03 AM
"Public, fido and vergin works on secondary 5g network with reduced speed of telus as primary is specifically reserved for telus coustmer "
Not sure what you mean since PM is Telus, Fido is Rogers and Virgin is Bell. I have PM 5G and it's been super fast so far, speed-testing up to 230 Mbps depending where I am.
