It is a serious problem!  I would feel more comfortable buying pornographic material at a Baptist run drug store than Public Mobile SIM cards at Walmart!  The Glentel reps consider these SIM cards as bad for their business, and I have seen them actively trying to persuade me into trying another phone service. I need to find a better place to easily buy Public Mobile SIM cards without the hassle!

The same thing happened to me!
I switched at the beginning of September last year; went into Walmart in my area and asked for a Public Mobile SIM.
I not only had to explain what PM was and that I wasn't lying to him, but had to hassle him to just search through his filing system of SIM cards to find them there.

After that, he said that the system wasn't ringing it through and that they must have received them by accident and never sent them back.
He then proceeded to try and have me sign up to a different carrier with his assistance.
I kept insisting that PM was the one I wanted, and finally, roughly 10 mins later, I walked out with the PM sim and an incredibly sour worker staring me out of the store.

I really couldn't believe it. I'm almost thankful that they don't have the vouchers available there because the employees would likely shred them in front of us.

London Drugs or direct from PM aren't bad choices.

I just had a great experience buying a SIM at Walmart. They did caution me on the lack of customer service kiosks/phone support though.

@bridonca, it is unfortunate to hear of certain Walmart stores being so uncooperative.  Do you have any Wow Mobile or Koodo authorized dealers near you.  They might be more easier to deal with. 

 

BTW, this is a family rated web site.  Consider using a more appropriate comparison.
