PLEASE HELP

KimM — Thu, 06 Jan 2022 08:21:18 GMT

My son and daughter have had their public mobile accounts for a year without any problems. They signed up when you could get a bonus 3Gb per month so they should be getting 4Gb per month total (plan includes 500Mb + 500Mb for autopay). My daughter got a text saying the plan renewed/payment received and the she tried to download a song and then got a second text saying she’d used 75% of her data. When I signed into her profile it shows she’s only used 13.090Mb. I need to know why the bonus 3Gb is not showing up on her account. Also if the renewal date is the payment date why is she getting a text of 75% used when she does show only 13 of 1000Mb used?

@KimM

If you look at self service under My Data & Add-Ons does the data line look correct?

It only shows the 500Mb + 500 Mb

I’d never even signed into her account before, we’ve had no problems for a year and it’s on autopay

I am fairly certain that the promotion was a one time 3GB data add on. Not re-occurring monthly add on (otherwise it would be a "hot" deal). Once your daughter used it up, then the 3GB data add on would disappear and she will be left with monthly 1GB data.

I would ignore the 75% warning. Probably a glitch in the system. Or sometimes the warning combines the regular monthly data with the one time data add on.

On my stand by line I have 250MB recurring, I have 1GB bonus and 2 GB bonus. Once I have used 250MB in a month and my 1GB bonus kicked in. Used a few MB of data out of that.

Then onwards I am using data out of my recurring and not from my bonus.

if you get the 75% usage msg and realtime says otherwise then it must be a glitch.

You can contact CSA to get it confirmed.
