I have seen SIM cards sent by Canada Post lettermail, Canada Post Xpresspost, and by UPS Standard.  It's not always by regular mail.


Good to know. But in any case I doubt SIM will be delivered directly to customers hands, correct? It will end up in mailbox, or note will be left to pick up at local post office.

The way couriers and mailman deliver mail/packages these days (they just throw mail/packages and run away) we should be lucky to get anything. BUT flyers and junk mail are always nicely stacked in my mailbox...


Needing to pick up the SIM card at a post office is extremely unlikely. Canada Post delivery employees have been directed to ignore almost all signature requests for delivery of pacakges/items. There are a few exceptions (such as registered mail), but that's really isn't a factor regardless of that because Public Mobile doesn't usually choose the signature required option for delivering SIM cards. Even then, at least with Canada Post, it's actually possible to accept delivery of a package (under normal times), but refuse to provide a signature for a "signature required" tiem .  SIM cards being a very small item, almost always get sent in a envelope and wi be delivered the same as your regular mail if it was sent by Canada Post.

They sent via Canada mail, no signature required.. just drop off on your mailbox.

 

But , you might not want to order from PM directly as SIM delivery could take as many as 3 or 4 weeks.

 

If you need it urgently, you might want to get it from Amazon if you have Prime membership

 

or you might want to check local kiosk (Walmart/London Drugs, etc), they might give you the SIM for free if you activate with them.

Wherever you usually get your mail delivered. Give it up to 3 or 4 weeks for it to arrive.
