@sebon2000 - others are presuming you are SIM-Swapping, and that could be.

 

But, do you mean you activated a new SIM card and plan/account, and you have no services?

 

Check your My Account or call 611 to see if your status is saying Active. If so, try:

  • restart your phone
  • toggle into and out of airplane mode
  • perform a Reset of the device's Network Settings
  • remove the SIM card and try it into another phone to see it if works
  • Check if your phone is blacklisted here: https://www.devicecheck.ca/check-status-device-canada/
  • Is your phone locked? Contact your previous provider to unlock it for you. You will need your imei number, dial *#06# to get it.

@sebon2000   Did you login to your account and Change Sim card under Profile/Quick Link page? 

 

You will also need to use incognito or private mode or another browser for the self serve account because of caching problems.

 

If you did change the  SIM card, then try rebooting the phone or toggling airplane mode on/off couple of times.
