Unfortunately Public Mobile does not offer this.

Also take note that it's not a monthly plan. It's 30 days.

@hinamirza- Unfortunately, cary over of data is not a feature available with Public Mobile. Auto payment has no impact on this. If that is something you absolutely require, you would need to find another carrier.

@hinamirza

If you find that you have too much data left at the end of the cycle you could consider downgrading to save some money. It's really easy to move back and forth between the available plans right from your selfserve.

You are not obligated to keep your current plan, only if you are getting some signup bonus and that usually lasts only up to 6 months and you can discard it if you don't have use for it.

It's not in there business model. As mentioned above check to see if you can go to a lower plan to save some money.

@hinamirza If you purchase a data add-on it carries over until used up. Plan data is prepaid and good for 30 days. Use it or lose it. Doesn't matter if you have 1, 3 or 50 accounts. Still much better than the competition in my opinion.

There's no service provider that rolls over unused data from month to month. Use it or lose it.

There is no provider who has such feature as I know. Only purchased addons or give aways can carry over months until you use them.

Yes Fizz appears to. Data rollover and it expires after 2 month cycle. Haven't read it all but they do.

They also seem to offer data gifting.

@hinamirza unfortunately I guess that's just how PM prefers to have their plans set up. Would definitely be nice to have but I guess customers can't get everything under the moon. Company has to have some type of limitations. Considering my bill is as low as it is, I'm willing to forgo a data roll over for this really nice cheap price.

The main competitors for PM are Lucky and Chatr.

As none of them offer rollover data or data gifting, PM will not be offering these any time soon.

@LovesToPM love how you can answer the same thing to two questions on two topics to the same person and still be 100% correct. Well done. 🙂

Good question. It definitely would be great to have to carry data to the next months.

@hinamirza Some providers will provide unlimited throttled data after the initial data amount is used, which could be quite useful for simply messaging and browsing, but may not be useful for apps such as Uber/Lyft
