Re-use a SIM card?

[lexi_song]

I left Canada, and allowed my account to be deactivated. I would like to use Public Mobile again when I return; will I be able to re-use my old SIM card, or will I have to buy a new one? Thank you!

If you have nonpayment on your account for more than 90 days, your account will be closed (you won’t have access to your account), SIM rendered useless and you will lose your old number.

If you want to keep your old number, change to the $15 plan and enable AutoPay or you can disable AutoPay to stop payment then make a payment after 88 days (less than 90 days in case there are issues with payment).

@lexi_song , if you haven’t paid on your account for over 90 days your account is closed and your SIM card will no longer work. Then you will need to sign up for a new account with a new SIM card & new phone number!

How long was acct suspended. After 90 days its finished for good...you need a new sim to start a new acct even a new email adress.
