Only phones sold after Dec 1 2017 will come unlocked automatically (able to connect to any carrier). You may need to contact your previous provider (Rogers?) to help unlock.


And if you need to do that, having done it before, I'd recommend doing Live Chat with them to get the unlock code(s), because they seemed to be quicker to get a customer rep that way, vs. trying to call them.... at least it was when I did that.

i got a new # ,i will try the moderator 

thanks

If those happen to be 2g only phones (very  wilold)they willl not work on telus network

You need 3g wcmda 850 and 1900 MHz

Check the specs

Some unlicked phones lock themselves to the first provider good news is that the provider and the manufacturer have to give you the unlock code for free

@ddpost did you port your number?  It sounds like either your port is stuck, or your SIM is not properly provisioned. Contact a moderator and explain your situation.  Click on the green questionmark in the white circle at the bottom right of your screen.  Type moderator and follow the prompts to get to one (CLICK on account specific question and human and submit a ticket)

If you're account is active can you borrow a phone that is confirmed working on Telus/Koodo/pm network.

You can also visit Telus or Koodo store and ask for a loaner.

If you are sure you're phones are working on telus network contact moderators.

Where did you buy the sim?
