They sent the wrong sim card now what?

I finally got the BETA invite and order what they called a triple punch sim card. But when I got it, it was a regular size sim card. I called customer service a all they can say is to have my sim card cut. My BETA invite is No longer valid and they don't even consider me pending back the wrong sim card in exchange for the correct one. What can I do? I'm an existing PUBLIC Mobile client and I can't believe this is the kind of support I'm getting.

^Which is why I said you don't need an invite if you are an existing customer

I have several phones and they use both micro and nano so I need the triple punch card.  I have followed the instructions and sent them an email. I hope they will get back to me soon.  Yes you can activate the sim with your login but you can't activate without a sim

If you are already an existing client you don't need an invite, you simply log into self serve and swap Sim cards. To speed things up I also highly suggest cutting the Sim card but if you want to wait then follow the instructions on how to order another one

Hi,

I just communicated with Public Mobile on your behalf. Please be patient, & a representative will shortly contact you.

Good luck!

According to the Rep, when they send out the invite, I'm suppose to have a limited period of time. I still have their email with the code but as soon as I put in I only get invalid error message

Regarding your Beta invite, what made it invalid?

Hello,

If you're sure of that, follow Cyber's instructions in the post above.

Martin, the problem is that I got a regular size sim card instead of the triple punch.

@ama328@Martin is correct about the Tri-Sims. I have a few of them, and I have figured out that this is the best way to ensure having all sizes available from that Tri-Sim

Hello,

If you received a small plastic card, that is the tri-punch card.

If you need a micro, push the centre of your card between thumb and forefinger, and the micro will come loose. If you need a nano, repeat the above, using the micro.

Good luck!
