Trying to switch SIM / look at plan, Generic Error

[thighmaster69]

I'm trying to switch my SIM. When I went on Self Serve and tried to select the plans tab, it threw up

Generic Error

Oh no!
It looks like something went wrong, but don’t panic.

Log out and then log back in again to continue. Or return to the Login Page.

OK. So I go to the main page and click on the Switch SIM link directly, when I typed in my number, no luck.

Tried using a different browser, etc. etc. none of them will work.

I've noticed the self-serve website has been slow/very buggy. Is there any solution to this problem?

@thighmaster69 Thanks for sharing the solution. 

Glad it worked out for you.

Haha that won't be an issue, I can read french perfectly fine

I actually solved the problem by going into InPrivate mode (ctrl+shift+p) on Internet Explorer (not Edge).

Weird how that's the one that worked, not even safari on my phone worked. But it seems to have updated, thank goodness.

Try switching to French instead English. That often solves the issue. Just have google translate for you .

I have never tried a SIM swap myself, but it should be relatively straightforward.  Some people having issues with the portal have resorted to using incognito mode, not sure why that would do anything.  Try also clearing browser cache.  If all else fails, send a private message to a moderator.  They can help you apply the new SIM.
