Thanks. 🙂

@musicollector did you just got an Error 821 during activation?  I suspect this patticular error has been taken care of, I have not seen any post about this one lately, not in the last 3 months

 

But.. there is a new error 837.  The good thing is that I do not think PM has charged user yet when this error comes up.

Very disconcerting! Telus should address this issue. As a new customer, it does not reflect well on PM! It's as bad as some of the Govt. of Canada sites!

I was using my computer (not the phone). I first used Firefox, to no avail. Then, used Brave - same 821 error. 😞  So, after reading through some of these posts, I cleared the cache and enabled Private Window. Same old nonsense! And, I see no viable solution posted anywhere, except that we have to raise a ticket! Why? As if even that is an easy task!!!

Sending me private messages helped a lot to relay infos to PM. Activation was complete within a couple of hours and everything is going smoothly. 
Thanks again

Hi 

tried again this morning giving me the same error 821

but successful in crating a ticket and submitting it so lets see.

If PM didn't take the fund, I would wait for an hour  and try on another browser to reactivate again.  Or even try with Incognito mode.

Getting the error 821 right after you press Activate SIM and then start checking the infos i typed like cell no, payment info. 

i checked my account and no funds were missing

@Briz_Marlon   At which step you got this 821 error?  did you do all the way to the end and submit and got this error?  

 

did you request porting?

 

Check your credit card to confirm if PM took the plan money already.
