@ecowen I've seen those ads too...free SIM if you use their referral code. Especially lucrative with the extra $20 credit. Aha but where do they get their SIM cards? There are sellers that you can buy bulk from reducing the cost down to a couple of dollars each at the most. There's one member here that did that and leaves them for free in the cafeteria at his 5000+employees workplace with his referral code written on the back....his investment has paid him back with a free phone for life.
If you want to refer someone in Vancouver and get them a free SIM card send them to Go-Mobile-repair on Broadway 2 blocks east of cambie...they always offer a free SIM with in store activation. If your a good talker you can convince London drugs 2 blocks away to price match it...especially on a Sunday or holiday when the other place is closed...but I still like to support the little guy!

Btw have you clicked on the "buy online with Amazon" link?
Yeah I have clicked on that "Buy online with Amazon" button. I see a $6.99 Public Mobile sim card sold by CanadianCellSupplies which isn't backed by the Amazon return policy.
In all honesty, buying a Public Mobile sim card from any selller on Amazon would probably work too, but if any issues arise hardware wise you'd have to talk to the seller directly instead of Amazon customer service.
Just be careful who you purchase your sim card from. Amazon is a market place so there will likely be multiple sellers for one item.

I've already bought stuff fullfilled by Amazon and they were fakes. So please don't lecture on how Amazon works. Practically anyone can be fulfilled by Amazon as long as they pay the fees.
Please lookup "Amazon Fulfillment" before you reply again.
I'm not recommending buying Amazon fulfilled lol, but it follows the Amazon return policy so it's hard to lose money even buying fakes. You should only buy a Public Mobile sim card that is sold by "Public Mobile" or "Amazon.ca".
Its all good.

https://www.amazon.ca/Public-Mobile-Card-Unlocked-Phones/dp/B07R6P5KBB/ref=as_li_ss_tl?keywords=publ...
The card is selling for $6.99 (includes free shipping).
It has the following product description
"⬤ Only purchase from Public Mobile ⬤ Avoid unauthorized sellers to ensure you get a genuine product.⬤"
What more is needed?
Do you know how Amazon works? That $6.99 one isn't sold by Public Mobile or fulfilled by Amazon. Anyone can put anything up under the same item category.
There are 8 sellers for this exact sim card on Amazon. If you look on the far right you see that $6.99 is being offered by CanadianCellSupplies.

Which card do you see?
Public Mobile must have switched to another company for fullfillment.
Yeah? The $6.99 one is sold by a 3rd-party not fulfilled by Amazon.
These are the sellers for the sim card Public Mobile links to. Anyone can sell simcards on Amazon the ones that are fulfilled by Amazon are more reputable.

And third-party seller is selling higher at $7.68
No, a 3rd party is selling it for $6.99 and they aren't even fulfilled by Amazon.
