Shipping of SIM card Delayed

[MichaelOS1]

I placed my order in Tuesday for a physical SIM card, and it said shipping would take two business days. Now, after the order is processed, the expected delivery has changed from two business days to August 29, which is over seven business days. Why were so many days added to the delivery? I needed the SIM card ASAP.

Hi @MichaelOS1,

Delivery times can vary. When ordering straight from Public Mobile, they can be a little more lengthy compared to other options. Seeing as you need a SIM asap, have you considered the eSIM option. An eSIM can be downloaded instantly through the Public Mobile App and that would permit you to use your Public Mobile service quicker!

If you absolutely need a physical SIM card immediately, you can pick up a physical SIM card from a nearby store. To find out which stores near you sell physical SIM cards, you can go to https://www.publicmobile.ca/en/qc/pick-up-SIM and enter our postal code. The site will then suggest you stores closest to you that sell SIM cards.

As the SIM card was ordered within the past 2 days, there hasn't been any delay that would prompt a customer support agent to send another SIM card.  SIM card orders are final, but even if I customer support agent is able to cancel the order, that can only be done if it hasn't already been shipped (which it probably already has been).

I see. There is nothing confusing about it, it's simply false marketing and the order page should clarify these details. How do I cancel my order?

Sorry, but shipping doesn't usually take only 2 business days. I agree that the 2 business day declaration is confusing, but this is only mean to say that the SIM card will be sent within 2 business days.  You'll have to add the shipping time on top of that.  Public Mobiel asks cusotmers to wait 10 business days for arrival.
