Renewal of US Talk Text and Data Roaming

Rusty2 — Tue, 14 Mar 2023 04:26:31 GMT

I added funds to purchase a US Add On: 15 days Unlimited talk text and 3 GB data = Should be $30 + tax I receive a receipt confirming the foregoing but the money has not been deducted from my balance nor has the add on been activated. Can you help?

@Rusty2 If the funds are available under current Balance, try dialling 611 from your phone to purchase the add-on. Make sure you go through the US Roaming add-on selection.

I attempted the 611 ... it goes through the menu items and selections okay but then says it can't do it and to visit public mobility/ community.

Confirm your credit card didn't get charged and you don't see any recent transaction history. Use incognito/private browsing mode to access the self-serve account and try purchasing the add-on again to see if that works. If not, you will have to contact PM CS_Agent with details.

Yes, the funds were taken and are reflected in my account balance. I will try one of the agents. Thanks for trying.

Do the roaming 0/15 items still show in your add-ons area. Click on the spinner refresh icon below the Shop Add-ons button. If they're gone then you should be able to buy the add-on. You could also get the other bundle and then a data bucket.

Yes, all 3 items still show as 0 / 15 days left even after I refresh and refresh and refresh.

@Rusty2 so, you are re-buying a roaming addon? You got one set of roaming and worked, it just expired and you are re-buying?

That is correct softech

@Rusty2 re-buy roaming addon is "funny", once the first set is expired, you need to wait 24 hours (some said 12 hours) in order to re-buy yourself.

If you don't want the wait, you will then need to open ticket with PM support. So, you did the correct thing by opening the ticket, PM agent can help you to re-buy quicker with the fund already in your account. Just monitor your Community inbox for PM reply

@Rusty2 - the curse of the Roaming USA re-buy :/. Did CSA get you sorted out?

You may also try buying a different type/bucket of Roaming addon to get your service up and running, then connect with CSA after to adjust anything on your account if needed.
