Canada-U.S.-Mexico plans?

eddieO — Sat, 03 Aug 2024 20:50:01 GMT

I've only been with PM a short time but for those who have been around for much longer my question is this: Does Public Mobile have a history of trying to stay competitive with companies like Freedom? I just noticed that Freedom Mobile is now promoting a Back to School offer and a couple other nice plans:

$35 50GB 5G Canada-U.S.-Mexico
$45 75GB 5G Canada-U.S.-Mexico +
$55 100GB 5G Canada-U.S.-Mexico +

+ Plus get 10GB Roam Beyond data and unlimited talk & text to use in 92 international destinations

Not sure who started offering the very popular Canada-U.S. plans first but I'd be very interested in having Mexico and the 10GB Roam Beyond data and unlimited talk & text to use in 96 countries

I'm not aware of any plans inclusive of Mexico at PM.

Public mobile does compete against Freedom mobile Canada-US plans. However, I doubt that PM will offer any Canada-US-Mexico plans at least in the near future.

Besides USA, PM does not offer other international country roaming plans.

Public Mobile does often compete with other phone service providers such as Freedom Mobile, but I can’t see that they would go so far as to include Canada-U.S.-Mexico plans. That would be amazing to have through.

My observations suggest that for PM it's rather the tier 3's of Bell and Roger's that PM matches. Freedom is generally ignored, especially their sub $30 plans. PM periodically matches Videotron in the PQ market.

Of more note for me is the new marketing approaches:

the departure of sub $30 plans from accounts over that level. Which means you cannot fall back to the cheapest plans once you upgrade.
win back offers to some, but not all, ex customers
one off special deals to only some current customers

I suspect by now everyone knows Public Mobile offers Can-US-Mexico. Since Nov 2024. $35. 50GB data, 5G up to 250mbps, unlimited minutes and messaging, and unlimited international text and picture messaging. I’m about to try it in Mexico. I read in their community section that it connects to telcel and AT&T smoothly.

We jumped on those plans as soon as they were offered. Had been waiting to add Mexico to our PM accounts for several years, glad they have it now! Great price for exactly what we were looking for.
