payment not processing

Justin187 — Tue, 04 Jan 2022 10:06:09 GMT

Hello, I'm trying to use my debit credit card that I have been using for years to process my payment but everytime it says can't verify payment info. I have changed nothing. I know there is money in my account as I can see it. Also I have made another purchase elsewhere seconds after my failed attemts to load money onto my public mobile account so I know its not an issue with my debit credit card or address info or for lack of money. Please help, my account payment is due in few days and I don't want to lose service. If I do lose service because I can't load money I promise you I will find a new phone supplier because this is crazy.

@Justin187

you meant you are trying to add a new debit credit card and fail to add? or you already have this debit credit card on the system , working well before but now PM unable to process payment using it?

if the debit credit card was used and working well before, on PM , try to do a manual payment again using Amount Due first.

If fails, try to use "Other" and enter the plan amount +$1 extra to see if it processes

My card was already in the system. couldn't process. I tried to remove and reinstall card won't even be acepted second time. Also I tried to add payment manually still wouldn't process.

I tried clearing the internet cache to no avail. even used different apps to try also not working. I'm using scotia debit visa card, same i've been using for years. my card has not expired and there is more than enough money in my account

@Justin187 Until you're able to get your payment card sorted purchase a voucher from a gas/convenience store or retailers like London Drugs, SDM or Walmart and load the funds via 611 service. There's also recharge.com with an additional fee.

Contact CS via the links I posted up there.

@Justin187

You may have two issues. First check that your card is not expiring at the end of this month. This caused me issues earlier this month with my card not being accepted even though it was still valid.

Second wait one hour before trying again. The system will only allow two attempted payments before locking you out for one hour by just giving you that same message. If you have attempted more than 5 times with the same card you will trigger a fraud lock that only a CSA can remove. Then you must contact customer support as previously provided.

Thank you, I have reached out to Customer service just waiting to hear back

@Justin187

Did you get a resolution for your issue with payment processing?

I also had the same problem at the end of this month's billing period. Used the same card for months, still valid, plenty of funds in the account and used the card at several outlets - both physical and online with no problem. Tried all of the advice given on your post without success. Contacted service support, who only had the same advice. Tried again this morning to remove and re-install the same card and now it is mysteriously working again. I'm with you, if this happens again, I'll be looking elsewhere. Lost 2 days of cell phone service!!

Re: payment not processing

Justin187 — Tue, 30 Nov 2021 20:14:58 GMT

Yes it was resolved took a day tho. They had to contact my bank because They believe that too many attempts were made to charge my card and so the bank locked the transaction And further transactions from happening. That was what I was told anyway, It wasn't allowing Me to make the first or second attempted payment so not sure how it was too many attempts but I'm grateful it now works. Also the same day my phone number miraculously changed to a Newfoundland and labrador area code and number. (I live in Toronto.) But that was fixed too. I think it was an internal glitch and they just wouldn't admit. Asking if I just ported my device I've been using for over 5 years

Re: payment not processing

darlicious — Tue, 30 Nov 2021 22:41:47 GMT

@Justin187

5 attempts at payment using the same card will cause a fraud lock on the pm end and/or he card issuer end. Inconvenient but better than the alternative!

There has been the odd report of an inexplicable phone number change....a weird glitch indeed. I'm happy to hear it has been resolved.

@Kcbass

This stuff doesn't happen often but a weird glitch can happen at pm. It's part of pm's charm....not for everyone but for someone like me that has free services then I don't have much to complain about!

the *611 service is broken as well. it will not accept the pin# did this twice today at 2 different stores and it will not accept either one, CS seems to be ignoring emails or they return them whenever they get to it. is there anywhere we can phone to actually speak to someone? or should i consider a new service provider?

softech — Tue, 30 Nov 2021 23:51:57 GMT

@robm57 sorry, PM support is all online, you will really need to open ticket with them to reset both the PIN and the My Account credentials

for My Account , did you try using the Forgot Password link? Enter the correct email and answer the security question.

If you cannot reset it this way, you will have to contact PM to have it reset for you:

1. For faster response (2-48 hours), Click on the bubble in the lower right to request CS Agent assistance, or use this direct link: https://publicmobile.ca/chatbot.

Start with typing "Forgot Login Information", click "Contact Us", click "Other" from the choices, click "Click here to submit a ticket". Then follow to complete the ticket submission.

2. Or you can Send a private message to the CS Agent here: https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/notes/composepage/note-to-user-id/22437

**Monitor your Community inbox, envelope on the top right, after ticket is opened. CS Agent will reply and work with you via messaging there

If you have opened a ticket already, maybe open another one (USE the open ticket method above, it could be quicker and remember to check your Community inbox)... sometimes, it works

If you really need to load fund quick you can also try Instant Retail topup (but there is a small fee)

Instant top-ups are currently available at most Canadian Tire Gas, Esso, Gateway Newstands, and MacEwen locations. Contact your local store for details.
