Dose this plan has limited time?

PEIPEI1230 — Thu, 16 Jan 2025 11:47:46 GMT

Hi, I have noticed the plan on the website with a limited time label. I am curious whether the plan price would involved in the limited time, or just the eSIM card discount. Thanks!

@PEIPEI1230 for now, it's the eSIM discount as it's normally $5. The plan itself will be the same price if you get it now.

@PEIPEI1230 It could be either, or, or both. PM seems to change plans subtly quite often.

@PEIPEI1230 Typically the plan price stays the same as long as you renew the same plan each 30 days. It just means you only have a limited time to sign up for it before it disappears.

Can I activate my SIM card now and purchase the plan now, but use it since February?

Hi,there. As I questioned in the last post, thanks to some friends' help, I think it would be better that I pay the plan right now.

But I have 2 questions:

1. I am a newcomer in Canada so that I already have the January international mobile plan, so I wanna activate my SIM card to make sure I can use the cheap plan but to actually use in the next month. Is it OKay?

2.Due to TD Bank's limited time discount policy, I need to make a one-time payment of over 50$ on the TD app or EasyPay. I am wondering if I could pay the bill for the first two months' phone bill at once and then have it automatically paid afterwards?

Thank you!

yes you can

but you need to choose to get physical sim card from PM and choose to wait for them to send you the sim card

then the activation will pause after payment step as it will need to send you the sim card

you have as long as you like to complete the rest of the step. Like when you are ready in Feb, just download PM app and login and complete the rest of the step, that is the day the cycle will start

(if you don't choose to buy sim card and wait for it to be shipped, there is no other way to "pause" it till Feb)

Thanks for your reply.😀

However, the problem is I have already got the physical SIM card in a store( not activated yet). Is there any other way I can do to fix it ?😢

technically, you don't have to order a new sim and wait for the sim delivery to pause the activation

just use the browser , not the app, to activate It will gar to payment step and complete the payment. After payment is done, it will ask you to download PM app. This is the part not to do, where you pause. Wait till Feb when you are ready and then use the Public Mobile app to complete the remaining steps to finalize the activation and that would be the day the subscription cycle will start

Wonderful! BYW, could you please tell me how to pay the first two month mobile plan at once ( in order to complete the requirement of TD bank as I mentioned before)? I can conduct it on APP as well?

Thank you!😊

after you activate the account, you can then load more funds to it and it will be on the account as a credit, called Available funds there

however, PM payment does not considered as a recurring bill with any credit card, it is Prepaid service so it is different. So, it will only be treated by the credit card as a regular transactions.
