If existing customers are thinking about changing their plan or if new customers are considering applying for a new activation plan, they should probably consider submitting change or activation before May 26th. Current plans may no longer be available after that date. Good luck.

EDIT & UPDATE: Disappointed that there were no new plans after the May 26 update. And any improvements are not apparent. Website and app appear to behave the same as before. Still need to keep logging in and frequently have to type in verification code. People are still complaining about same things.

Can you ck the time zone listing on this. I believe you wish to reflect EDT and PDT.

In the future you could just use Eastern Time and Pacific time. Then you wouldn't have to remember the correct time zone when it changes in the summer in North America.

EST and PST are standards, as there are provinces in Canada, Sask as an example that do not follow DS. Just like most OS, there is a check box for DS, so the user should know how to apply that.

Just saying, not that your point is not valid to a certain point.

The issue is most of Canada is in DST, and information in the service disruption message started wrongly. It is off by one hour as listed at thime of this posting.

@Ck_PM , for future suggestion I think it would help to have the maintenance banner at the top of the Community homepage also for everyone to see & not just the Shop section 🙂

As a new customer coming from Rogers May 25, I have been experienced problems. I thought my Public e-sim installed was ok. But maybe not. I did get confirmation text from Rogers hours after my assumingly successful sign up with public, saying my number was ported and they are sorry to see me go. About the same time I had no success receiving the verification texts Public said they were sending. Now today I see SOS. I am not able to make calls. I'm concerned it was a mistake to change hoping to save money on a US trip coming up in 2 days!

Hi Timmy I'm having the same issue as well. Hopefully someone is reading these messages and can provide a solution quickly. I also sent the a private message about the issue.

@AtomicDevil

what was your question? you sent support the question or you just post here?

if you just post here, only forum members reply. If you need PM to help, message them

If you message them, they reply quick. I only send them my question half an hour ago, and they replied me for verification questions.

I sent a private message to CS but I noticed @TimmyS was having a similar issue. I ported my number from Koodo using the esim option and now eversafe is trying to send a text message with a verification code but I don't have active service.

I’m getting forum members support, which is great. But I thought the company support would have replied by now. I saw their hours once and thought they would be closed before I can get this fixed

Re: [NEW] Scheduled Maintenance on May 26

TimmyS — Sun, 26 May 2024 23:50:37 GMT

Exactly. A dilemma! And CS IIS CLOSED in 10 minutes AT 5 Pm pst

@TimmyS I'm good now. I turned of the esim and rebooted and the when the device was back on I enabled the esim and the text messages came flooding through. 1 hour from the port request and I'm up.

Re: [NEW] Scheduled Maintenance on May 26

TimmyS — Mon, 27 May 2024 00:10:21 GMT

You are smarter than this old geezer!

I WILL try to follow YOUR LEAD:

Turn OFF Public the esim

reboot iPhone

when iPhone comes back on : enable the esim

HERE GOES!

AtomicDevil — Mon, 27 May 2024 00:19:58 GMT

Fingers crossed! Hopefully it's just a delay in the port that's causing the issue for you.

Re: [NEW] Scheduled Maintenance on May 26

TimmyS — Mon, 27 May 2024 00:29:02 GMT

No luck after following that. I deleted the e sim which was not there anyway as I was SOS, turned off phone. Turned on phone. Still SOS. NO FLOOD OF ANSWERS FROM CS

My problem could be the Apple Watch data that was connected to my phoneplan?

BY NOW THEY may be CLOSED in Ontario.

TimmyS — Mon, 27 May 2024 00:32:26 GMT

if its a delay in the port that would be strange as i started this 24 hours ago and Rogers confirmed with a text within a few hours they were sorry to see me g. It was about that time i think I quit getting texts & frustrating no reply from CS.

Re: [NEW] Scheduled Maintenance on May 26

AtomicDevil — Mon, 27 May 2024 01:10:46 GMT

That's frustrating. Perhaps call Rogers to see if the port out has been completed or if it's still pending. Otherwise unfortunately you may need to wait for Public's CS to be working again..
