Purchased two US roaming packages. One did not work, had to repurchase.

drzed — Wed, 05 Jan 2022 14:47:38 GMT

On Feb 24th I purchased two US roaming packages:

1) 500 MB data

2) 250 MB data plus voice

When in the US once my 250 GB was used the system did not start the 500 MB and my data ran out. I purchased a further 1 GB data (Feb 28th) ($20 + tax).

How do I go about getting a credit for the 500 MB that was not able to be used ($15 + tax)?

@drzed When purchasing US Roaming add-ons you need to be careful as they do not behave like normal PM add-ons. It is not recommended to purchase two US roaming data add-on packages at the same time. It's best to let the data expire on one before you purchase another one with data.

@drzed the two add-ons that you purchased at the same time were running concurrently. So both expired at the same time which explains why you could not "use the other when the first expired". Add-ons always start immediately upon purchase.

Public Mobile does not specifically offer refunds per terms of service. Generally the moderators will make an exception to the rule and provide an account credit when honest mistakes are made.

I would say that it should have gone over to the other data bucket until expiry or consumed. Check your payment history to verify that you bought the second add-on. Post a screen snip here if you like. Blank out personal info of course. Unless one or more are actually still showing depending on the time of day you bought them on the 24th. Post a screen snip of your overview page too if you like.
