How to use incogito mode

[softech · Accepted solution]

@Bestguy2023 and old sim cannot be reused. It is a general rule for all carrier,  Please get a new Public Mobile sim card from

• local Telus or Koodo stores: https://publicmobile.ca/en/on/store-locator (call ahead and confirm availability ) 
• Amazon.ca:
  https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07R6P5KBB/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=AD2L5SKHPCC6Q&psc=1 (Free Prime Shipping)
  or   
  https://www.amazon.ca/Public-Mobile-Card-Unlocked-Phones/dp/B07R6P5KBB (Free non-Prime 1-2 weeks shipping)
• PM online: https://www.publicmobile.ca/sim-card   (Delivery could take anywhere from 5 days to 3 weeks)

@Bestguy2023 PM is an online only provider so they have to be really careful, especially with sim card change. Sim Fraud is real,  with no solid validation, someone can  change sim and can take over you phone and get to your bank with the 2FA.

If you feel uncomfortable, just try change sim later today or tomorrow and use Incgonito mode on desktop/laptop

@Bestguy2023   A SIM card can only be activated once 

[Bestguy2023]

I did login using my laptop then entered another nano card used to be public mobile last month because changed the phone, it says invalid sim card

[Bestguy2023]

Ridiculous all the info they ask , Iam not going to send all the info through message. There are other verification like text or less info. Honestly I have 3 accounts and started to get tired

@Bestguy2023 

to protect against info stealing...PM is asking certain questions that only you should know...just to make sure you are, who you say you are. It's for your own protection.

Just answer the questions as best as you can and all should be well.

@Bestguy2023 on the desktop, login My Account using Incognito mode, go back to Profile page and check the sim card number, is that showing the old number or new??

if old number, and you cannot change to new, open ticket with support and ask them to change for you

**Monitor your Community inbox (envelope icon on top right) after the ticket is opened.  CS Agent will reply to you there

• CS agents are useless , here is what they ask

• What is your E-mail address?

  What is your home address including the postal code?

  What are the four digits of your VISA debit/credit card on file?

  What is your current plan?

  What is your SIM Card number?

[Bestguy2023]

Nobody home, waiting for a reply from them
