@heyubu 

best to ask a friend to download the app and complete the activation on behalf.  If the activation is using eSIM, please make sure do not allow the app to automatic install the eSIM or it will be installed on the wrong phone

HI @heyubu 

once paid, account has been setup partially on the system, you can ask support agent to help the rest of the stop (phone number choosing or porting).  please submit a ticket with CS Agent here:

Sorry, but the only way to complete the activation is by using the mobile app. You'll need to borrow a device that can run the app. Please remember not only to log out of your Public Mobile account from the app after you're done, but also remember to clear that app's data storage from that app (due to a security bug in the software programming).

@heyubu  Can he use someone else phone to download the app and activate ?? Then delete the app from fiends phone and he can manage the account on the website after that
