I ordered a SIM card on line over 2 weeks ago and got email that it was posted to Canada Post on Mar 24. Assume it has been lost somewhere in the mail system. How do I get a replacement sent out?

@29trapper, before you even do that, make sure you have type in the right address. Sometimes, your brain is telling you the address, but your fingers decides to punch in the wrong number or address. I sometimes do this when I send stuff to my mailing address for delivered. I send my Amazon packages to my parents house, and I type in my postal code by mistake!
If you ordered online via Public Mobile's site which btw was cheaper before April 1st where it was only $5 bucks per SIM card, then click on the email. If you didn't get the email, check your junk or spam folders. IF not, do a search within your email folder. If no email, it could be the order wasn't put through (check your credit card statement online or paper)
If you did get an email, then click on view order. If it says it was delivered to this address, and it isn't your address, I would go to that person's address, and say, hey, my name is 29 Trapper, and I think you have my mail by mistake. Doesn't hurt first before hitting up the moderator team.

ive just been through the very same.
ordered March 17 and arrived April 6
putting another sim in the system doesn’t solve the issue.
It just gives another sim the chance of being re-routed and delayed as what happened to me.
Your order number doubles as your tracking number.
When your sim/package arrives at your local Canada post centre/if you enabled email notification on their website,you will receive a mail saying when it was scanned in and when it gets scanned out for delivery to you.
The present situation has interfered with everything as we know it.
My sim misdirection meant my sim/however far it got went straight back to Mississauga and started its journey all over.
As with most stuff now,this will test your patience.It tested mine.
You will get there but not as quick as you think.
hope this helps you on your journey towards a great service from PM.

If ordered from PM...the email you got from PM included a tracking number. Go to the Canada Post tracking number site to see what the latest report shows.

@29trapper I would contact a moderator. Explain your situation in the ticket and they will ship you a new one. This has happened to a few people before. Quick question. Did you order it from PM or from a third party like amazon ? If it was ordered from PM submit a Ticket. If it was ordered Through Amazon I would contact them. You should also try tracking your order by copying the order number from the email PM sent you and try tracking it on the canada post website
