When i tried to resubmit I was returned to the first part. There was a message that my SIM is not recognized. Am I to assume I have to contact a human?

New number is definitely way to go
You can port after everything is the way you want it, if you came your mind you just suspend and remove your credit card info.
If anything goes wrong with activation you still have service
More things done art once more things that can go wrong
Also didn't forget your referral code
Welcome to public mobile and savings:)

I would also recommend to pick a new number when you activate. You can port in later from your self-serve account once everything is activated properly. There is chance porting might fail during activation or you will have to wait until porting is done to use your phone after activation. So to avoid such errors, pick a new number which will be in use temporarily while you request to port in later.

Based on what you said, I m assuming that your credit card was now charged. I have heard that if you use an incognito Firefox or Google browser it tends to work better. You could wait an hour and try again.

@ClarenceS You will have wait an hour or so before you try again. The previous session that crashed needs to be cleared and it will happen after an hour or so. Be sure to use private/incognito browsing mode next time you try.

@ClarenceS You need to wait for about an hour for the session lock to clear before you can try it again.

In addition, I am unable to get service online because I don't have a phone number yet. ????
