I tried chat and there's 0 consistency with support. I tried signing up for service on July 14th. It seemed easy enough. Register an account, opted in for eSIM, selected a plan, made payment. Stated payment went though. Easy enough.
Next was to install the app, easy again, sign in, etc. But the step after where I select a phone number I'd like to port or create it will just give me a generic error where it didn't work at all. I was talking to chat for a while and then several conversations with various support team members where the conversation had to start over again and again and again. I was told how they can't re-issue an eSIM (when one was never set up at all yet) but to buy one, which I did. As soon as I purchased a SIM, the agent told me "well, here's the problem - your account is just tentative and that's it", not offering any solution.
I created another email address, started from scratch, opted to use a SIM card and typed the number in correctly, only to get the generic unable to activate error again.
Then a third time, but this time around I did the entire activation through the app instead of starting through the PM website and finishing on the app - this time using a different form of payment. The payments went through but still, unable to activate service. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong, I've activated SIM cards from other carriers with no issue in the past but never had as many issues as this.
Solved! Go to Solution.
