Regarding "Canada-US 5G 50GB for $34/mon"

Kazuki_toronto — Mon, 06 May 2024 03:34:02 GMT

I have some questions about the plan.

1. Does it cover 5G+?
2. Do I have to change my phone number? (I'm using Telus now)
3. Is the covered area completely the same as Telus?
4. Was wondering if I have to change some settings to use data and call when I go to the US.
5. Are there any special regulations like a 2-year contract?

Thanks in advance.

1. Does it cover 5G+?...yes
2. Do I have to change my phone number? (I'm using Telus now)...nope, you can easily port to PM
3. Is the covered area completely the same as Telus?...PM uses Telus and Bell backbone..so same coverage.
4. Was wondering if I have to change some settings to use data and call when I go to the US....nope, you'll just have to make sure your roaming data is enabled.
5. Are there any special regulations like a 2-year contract?...nope...all PM plans are either 30 day or 90 days
Thanks in advance.

You're still roaming when you're in the US, but it's included in your plan so there are no extra charges. You'll want to:

1) Turn Data Roaming ON

2) Set Network Selection to AUTOMATIC

3) Set Preferred Network to 4G/LTE (because roaming on AT&T 5G doesn't work)

You can roam unlimited . It’s a true snow bird plan and can be used in either country to call either country talk text and data . So long as you keep the plan .

Public Mobile caps 5G speed at 250Mbps, so no 5G+ speed if that's what you're asking.
