It was great! I was on Public in about 5 mins.       :cathappy:

 

Only thing I found a little confusing was that I got a text from "Freedom Mobile" informing me of the pin number I selected for my account?

 

Also, my mobile data was not working so checked all the APN settings according to the help file and everything looked good, but still couldn't access data. So, I deleted the APN and set it up again manually and now it works great.       :cathappy:

 

Thanks Lachlan_M for posting the help file on "how to setup data/APN!"

Hi,

 

I selected my own PIN during setup and received two text alerts. One from 100 and another one from "Freedom Mobile."

 

I found it interesting because I've never been with Freedom mobile.

 

Thanks for the warm welcome kselmak.

Hi @bk5124 

Did you choose your PIN during signup or was one assigned to you?

Check that "freedom mobile" contact that sent you info, it may be that it's from 100 or 611 that is standard provider number and you may have added it to your contacts as freedommobile while you were with freedom mobile
