legacy data

Hi,

I am a long time user of Public Mobile. I have legacy data from the time when it didn't expire in 30 days. 2g of 8g used. I received an email about signing up for the 4g plan. If I switch to that, will I lose all of the data in the legacy plan? I don't use much data, so the 3g or 4g doesn't make much difference to me.

@Tweakiepub

if you meant the extra data add-on from More is Merrier promotions from couple years ago, then you don't have to worry about losing them after plan changing. Those are non-expiring addons and they will stay unaffected until they are used up

Thanks all. I was so annoyed when the big change happened and my rate went from $6'ish per month back to $15. I lost all of the credits for referral. I'd hate to lose so much data by moving from 3g to 4g. As it is, it's a $3 per month price increase. Still one of the best rates around (for Canada), but I hated losing my credits.

Yes, the data is holiday bonus rewards. You know you've been around a while when... LOL
