price of sim card

[ypk786]

Hello, I recently went to buy a sim card for one of my parents from a Telus store. On the public mobile site it says physical sim $5 as of now but the Telus store charged $10. I spoke to the store and they advised me that's what they charge. Just wondering if anyone knows how to get the credit or how to get the sim for $5? I know $5 isn't a large amount of money but it's the principle more than anything. Thank you in advance.

You can order from Canadian Cell Supplies online on sale for $3. If you are in the Mississauga/Oakville Ontario area, you can arrange for pickup. Otherwise, order it online.

@ypk786  the Telus agent is correct. The cost of a physical SIM in stores is $10+. 

There are times when Public Mobile will offer a 'sale' of $5.00 for new customers. 

The regular price is still $10+ even at Public Mobile.

In order to get this, you would have to download the Public Mobile app and purchase it through them.
