Question

can i get a puk code sooner than a scheduled callback for tomorrow morning?


I tried adding a pin to my esim and ended up with it disabled asking for a puk code.  I have a callback scheduled on another number in 12 hours but hoping I can get help before then.

Yes, the fastest way to get your PUK is Koodo Assist chat at https://koodo.com/chat, you connect with a rep there who can give it to you instead of waiting on the callback. The PUK is unique to your eSIM and can't be viewed on the phone itself.

 

How many times have you entered a PUK so far? Entering the wrong PUK 10 times in a row makes the eSIM permanently unusable and a replacement would be needed, so I would be careful there. Once the correct PUK goes in, the phone asks you to create a new SIM PIN and then type it again, both entries have to match exactly. If you don't need a custom PIN, 1234 is the default.

Thanks, I tried 1234 but no luck.  Not sure how many times I tried before I realized it was asking for PUK and not the pin I was trying to create.  Koodo assist is useless beyond scheduling a callback tomorrow during business hours.  Too stupid to understand the callback can't be at the affected number as well...
