Disability discount?

Amber75 — Mon, 02 Dec 2024 02:03:07 GMT

I was just wondering if PM offers a disability discount for those subscribers who use their phones as life saving devices. For example T1 DIABETES where the phone is used as a blood sugar monitor and insulin deliverer? I see that many other carriers offer this discount.

hi @Amber75 sorry, PM has no special discount for any targeted groups. You have to check Tier 1 carriers like Telus for offers like that

Hello @Amber75

No. Public Mobile does not offer such services. They are a 3rd tier service and nothing more.

You would have to reach out to Telus, a 1st tier service.

@Amber75 I don't believe so, and also Public Mobile is self-serve, no phone support, which likely isn't ideal when it's for life-saving purposes.
