 @hegeorge : Where did it take you if you clicked on that link on the image you posted?

Don't jump to the bank just yet. Let this place sort it out. If unsatisfactory then you might need to escalate to the CCTS. The bank is usually the last thing. This place is usually pretty good with resolving these kinds of things.

@J_PM 

Looks like there's still a few spots where pm needs to update its messaging with replacing moderator with customer support agent (CSA).

@hegeorge 

CSA and moderator are the same thing just renamed customer support (service) agents.

[hegeorge]

@Anonymous what does the CSA stand for? I usually just contact the bank for this kind of mistake.

[darlicious]

@hegeorge 

Do what the message says....contact customer support so they can properly set up your account and provision your sim card. At the moment your telus number doesn't have an account to port into. Once the CSA fixes the activation error they will reinitiate your port request and start the refund process for the double payment.

CSA contact has already been supplied to you. Welcome to public mobile!

 @hegeorge : With the Telus SIM in? You would have had 90 minutes to confirm. Although iirc the text comes anyway...you just might be late to reply.

But yeah...you have a bit of a mess on your hands that only the CSA's will be able to straighten out.

You'll need them to undo any second activation accounts and credit you the payment in the proper one. You'll want to write down the 19 digit SIM # that you have for them to align with the proper account.

[hegeorge]

@Anonymous I didn't get a message though. Do I have to wait for a couple of hours?

[Anonymous]

 @hegeorge : I asked about the Telus SIM because you need to have it in a phone to confirm the transfer.

The rest is a bit of a mess. But see if you can complete the transfer first. Then have your PM SIM in. And see what if anything works.

Then deal with the CSA's for the money.

The confirmation message can take a few minutes to come in. You have 90 minutes from the time of request.

@Anonymous i still have my telus card, and I got charged twice (because I went through the process twice) for the payment.

[Anonymous]

 @hegeorge : Do you have your Telus SIM in still? Did a charge end up on your payment card?

Did you successfully complete the payment section?
If so, check to see if your credit card has been charged.
If yes, put your SIM card in your phone to see if it works.
If it does, go to the link below to create your self-service account.
Public Mobile - Register
If you have not been charged, the system may have locked the activation after several unsuccessful attempts. Wait an hour, open a new browser in incognito mode and try again.

 @hegeorge : So you didn't get to the payment screen right? Try again in a little while and as above with maybe a different browser.
