monthly payment

terryanderson — Wed, 05 Jan 2022 20:39:48 GMT

for some reason my payment is not coming out of the credit card I have on record. I phoned the card company and they said the problem was with public mobile. There is plenty of credit on that card and I can go in and do it manually with no problem.

Hello @terryanderson ,

Sounds like an autopay issue.

If you credit card is on your account, try renewing by calling 611?

If still having issues:

Contact the Moderator_Team via private message using this link.

Seems to be a common error.

Make sure your profile address and cc payment address are the same.

@terryanderson did you get any sms notifications of payment failure? PM recently introduced this feature and I am curious how the sms looks like.

@Mattredwingsfan the best way to contact mods is through Simon the chat bot, the macro you are using, is slightly out of date and should be updated.

And the profile address has no bearing on payment card address. The address entered in the payment card screen needs to match the payment card address.

@terryanderson Make sure autopay is enabled on your account.

You can confirm through your self serve account

https://www.publicmobile.ca/en/bc/get-help/articles/set-up-autopay

or by calling 611

https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/Self-Serve/611-IVR-Menu-System/m-p/289352#M20315

Mind if I ask which card you are using? You may have to consult with moderator_team. It is possible that the card you are using does that allow for automatic payments, which may explain why your manual payment is going through, but not autopay.

@terryanderson

You don't say but I presume then your account top up is failing every 30 days and you are out of service until you top up manually And reactivate the account? Obviously if you have enough “available funds” on your Public Mobile account to do the top up there is no reason to charge anything to your card.

@terryanderson Known issue/bug with Public's Auto-Pay system failing on occasion. Submit a ticket to Public Mobile and ask them to fix the problem.
