Public does not do one-off matching. The plans shown are what is on offer.

@Sur PM never price match others. They only offer the plans they show on the site

Did they specifically offer you that? Or are you seeing it on their site? I see the same $55 offer but only for 12 months. You can also get an additional 2gb here with a promo for 12 months. And another $5 for 5 months when referred. And the plans here are almost always grandfathered. The Virgin one is $5 for 12 months. Then it returns to $60.

As mentioned above ...nope. With that said did you read the fine print? Is that the offer for a certain period of time? Even if not, many times they will jack it up once you are with them for awhile.

Also technically the 55 for 20 plan PM has right now would beat it for a new customer as they would get over 8 bucks in points each renewal and that doesn't include any other rewards they may get including the 5 welcome points and 10 credit for putting in a referral code etc

I would say YES!!

Get a referral code quickly....and get another $25 off over 5 months. $5 x 5 months.

Look here in the pic. Does Virgin give points that can be used against your monthly bill or to by add ons??

Look in the plans and click the $55 plan and you will see in details.

²Offer current as of July 13, 2022. Offer available to new customers who activate at Public Mobile. Offer provides 15% points-back for 12 months on eligible purchases on your plan or add-ons. Offer subject to change, and may be removed at any time. 15% points-back applies only to customer spend on plan renewals and add-ons, and is not applicable to any other method of earning points (such as welcome present points, give back points, refer-a-friend, anniversary, etc.). Offer is applied as a 10% points-back bonus on top of the current in-market points-back offer of 5%. After the 12-month period, the 15% offer will be removed, and customer will revert to the in-market points-back offer, which is currently 5%.

Points bonus will automatically be applied separately from the regular 5% points-back to eligible purchases within 4-5 business days. Points bonus will expire if the account is deactivated.

As of August 16, 2022, 1 Public point earned is valued at 1 dollar when redeemed. By redeeming 15 points, you can save $15 off the price of your phone bill, applied to your next renewal. Minimum redemption of 15 points required to receive a bill credit. Public Points have no cash value and may not be redeemed for cash or any other benefits except under the Program.

$55 x 15% = $8.25 a month for the first year. But you will have to let the $8.25 accumulate to the number required for the $15 bill credit. So for $47 a month how does this $55 plan compare for 20GB and 4G??
