Hi everyone! I am Fatima. A few days back, I received my new Canadian sim powered by Fido. I need clarification about activating my sim as I do not know how and when to activate my new sim. Can anyone help?
Indeed it is an excellent question. Many students don't read the proper instructions and try to activate and use a Canadian sim in India without knowing it would cause high roaming charges. So, to avoid these high roaming charges, students should activate their Canadian sim only after reaching Canada.
To activate their sim automatically, students must mention their arrival date in Canada while registering for the sim. This process will help the students to avoid the hassle of roaming charges.
To apply for the Canadian SIM Card, please follow the steps:
Please note, SIM Cards provided outside of VFS may not be activated, so might not work on arrival in Canada. To make sure, your SIM Card will be activated on arrival in Canada, please fill the above mentioned form again and enter your SIM Card number.
