Plan Changed at Renewal, Didn’t get my Rewards

D_T — Sat, 21 Jan 2023 14:46:16 GMT

I changed my plan scheduled at renewal and credit card was charged the full $35 not getting any rewards. Chat with Simon got me no where. Why didn’t I get my rewards?

You should have, @D_T

Did you, by any chance, switch to the new Public Points program recently?

If so, you'll know by logging into the Rewards site, using your same credentials as the self-serve login. If you DID, regrettably you cannot roll-back to the old Rewards plan.

If you DID NOT, is it possible you've set the account to lost/stolen in the last 30 days at any time - that also causes rewards to sometimes not apply on a subsequent renewal.

No, I did not switch. Payment went through. Text saying payment due coming as usual. No text saying thanks for payment. Text overnight says rewards have been applied. My account shows the rewards for next payment.

@D_T

If you're 100% certain you DID NOT migrate to Public Points, then contact the Customer Support staff to ask they apply the rewards you're entitled to receive from the last renewal.

For the heck of it, can you screenshot your "Payment" tab showing payments for the past 30 days just to confirm reward amounts were not applied - have a look to be certain.

To contact a Customer Support Agent, there are 2 methods:

I am certain. I was hesitant to even change plans as getting help/resolution is hard.

I get that, @D_T

Public Mobile tends to 'coax' customers switching plans to move towards Public Points. Their plan descriptions uses wording like "3x the points" and such to lure you.

Don't EVER, even if they dangle carrots. It's not worth it in the long run, especially the differences in Loyalty rewards and auto-pay combined.

@D_T Be certain to not switch to points from rewards because you can never go back to rewards. It’s a one way street and not worth it , stick with rewards @D_T
