Rejoining Smarty -- no sim sent
- 03-10-2024
This is now resolved. I eventually got someone one the Smarty Support Team and I used my family and friends sim. My number should be switched over tomorrow. It seems I may have had a fat finger with my date of birth so it needed to be verified. Unsure if that was the hold up. Was told also rejoiners cannot use the same account but I am using the same one. PAC number wasn't getting accepted when I tried to raise another account so definitely needed a human support person. Pity they hide behind chat bots.
My status remains as --- Awaiting number...
Your phone number hasn’t been assigned yet. This happens automatically. When that’s done and your SIM has arrived you’ll be able to activate your service from here.

DavidBa_1842118 Thanks for clarifying - I thought you meant that you were both using the same email! (it happens!)
Did you rejoin with via the same account? I wonder if the system is confused because there is an old and a new account with the same email?
Or, then again, perhaps post is running at snail's pace but just for you and not for "she who must be obeyed"

DavidBa_1842118 My understanding has been that a number is allocated when the sim is activated.
I would expect that to be because many sims must be sent out e.g. extras to give to friends to sign them up - and I'm sure that loads of them are never used.
