Sorry to hear about your troubles. Public mobile has no call centre or live agent. All contact with PM is via private messaging, but it takes time for response unfortunately.

Sometimes the paymnt voucher takes time to activate up to 24 hours. You can try to dial 611 on your phone and try to input the voucher number via your phone. Website also can be finicky at times. Sometimes, clearing cache, trying a different web browser or incognito mode works.

If that does not work, you may need to contact moderator

You came here for the rates. This is how rates can be offered. People cost money.

Try the 611 service as mentioned. I find it more reliable for vouchers than the self-serve.

It can take upto 48 hours for the voucher to become active.

If it doesn't become active after 48 hours; call the customer service number on the back of the voucher. I've had gift card activations where it didn't become automatically valid and the customer service agent had to manually activate it (they can see the transaction, but something with certain gift cards).

I read from others that sometimes the 611 option (load using phone) works, when online fails.

Good Luck!
