    Correct me if I am wrong. Are you putting in your SaskTel sim card number?


    Did you receive a sim card from Lum?

    I am inputting number on the back of the sim card. No I did not get it from lum. It is an active sim card from SaskTel that was being used on a prepaid plan but decided to switch to lum

    You need a new SIM card from Lum to activate your new service. If you didn't already order one, you need to go into your Lum account and order a Lum sim card. SaskTel sim card will not work.

    So double check your email and invoices to ensure that you didn't already order a sim card when you signed up.


    You are asked a question if you already have a lum sim card... If you picked YES, you need to go back into your account, under settings go to:

    Buy and Manage -> buy data and more -> select sik card and order a sim card.

    You need this sim card to activate your new service with lum. It can take a few days to arrive by mail to your address on file.

    Will I be credit the $10 for the sim card because the first card is free?

    I would advise you to order the sim card for now and then 'Raise a Ticket' in your Lum account for the refund and I think it should be refunded.
