Question	Answer
How long will this plan be in market?	This is a limited time offer and is subject to change without notice. Please refer to Public Mobile’s Service Terms.  Please note that the promotion will not be honoured after it has ended. This includes SIM cards that have been purchased online, are in-transit and not yet activated.
Will I keep the same plan forever? Will my plan change?	Please refer to our Terms of Service for more information about our plans.
I am an existing customer, what is the difference between changing my plan immediately and changing my plan on the next renewal date?	You may choose to change your plan immediately or on your next renewal date. Here is the difference: You may choose to change your plan immediately if you have used all or most of your services, if your account is suspended and you would like a different plan, or if you would like to get started right away on the new plan. Here are some things you should know about this option: There must be enough funds in your account to cover the full amount of the new plan. A new payment cycle starts when you activate your new plan. Your plan will not be prorated, which means that any days remaining in your current payment cycle will not be credited to your new plan. Due to system limitations, if your account is suspended, you will need to send a private message to our Moderator Team here to change your plan immediately. You will need to be signed in to the Community for the link to work. Any earned Rewards will be applied on your next renewal after the plan change. On the other hand, you may choose to change your plan on your next renewal date because it allows you to use the services you have already paid for. We recommend this option so your money can go further. Here are some things you should know about this option: If you choose to change your plan on your next plan renewal date, the amount owed will be automatically updated. If you have AutoPay set up, the amount of your new plan will be charged on your payment due date. You can cancel a future-dated plan change at any time by clicking on the ‘Plans and Add-Ons’ tab and selecting ‘Cancel Order’. Any earned Rewards will be applied on your next renewal after the plan change.
What happens if the “$40 for 4 GB at 3G speed” plan becomes unavailable before my next plan renewal date?	If you chose to change your plan to “$40 for 4 GB at 3G speed” on the next renewal date and the request has been submitted successfully, you will still switch to “$40 for 4 GB at 3G speed” even if the promotion ends before your renewal date occurs.

@crystalholtby78, the fact that they don't is what makes the plans a lot cheaper.

[cmatassa]

So happy about this deal!  I was on the 40$ for 2.5 gb plan so am very pleased to see that I will now be getting more data for the same amount I was already paying.  Very pleased with PM so far!

@Seadogjr, the moderators are going to be busy right now as this is a popular promotion.  Historicly, we know wait times increase when promos are offered.

Your message to the Mods will be answered as soon as possible, in a first come, first served basis.

Looking far matching plan for 90 days

[Seadogjr]

Tried to send private message to moderator yesterday and no reply so guess customers are not important

@Seadogjr, You (yourself), cannot change your plan once it is suspended.  However, you can send a private message to the moderator team and ask them to change it for you.  Just be sure to have enough funds in your account to cover the new plan.

Customers pay for call centers  So up go the prices. If you want a call center there are other providers you can chose.

Probably because you have the option, "Automatically subscribe me to all topics or reviews I participate in" enabled in your notifications settings. You can uncheck that option or unsubscribe from email notifications.

wish I could convince more family and friends to switch the plans are awesome. Not sure why it's a hard sell. Too unfimiliar name I suppose.

I had been on the low data $30 plan for years but lately I been finding myself using more data so finally decided to switch to this plan. I can live without my data being unthrottled so for me it's basically same value as the old fall promo. I don't need 4gb a month so hope they will eventually offer a decent 30 or 35 plan with less data but still better then their current 30/35. I never see any deals on any plans below 40 though that seems to be their pricing sweetspot they want us to all be at or higher 😞

[stevester911]

Currently with PM, you can only have 1 phone number per account. So no, data sharing between multiple lines is not possible at this time although I too would love to see this feature. 

[jameswsk]

do your plans allow data sharing within the same account if you have multiple numbers?

[Lelievreaj]

@colhaven thank you. I wish I could triple bravo you for that. I get an email every time someone replies to this thread

[colhaven]

It amazes me the number of people who dont bother reading  before they post.

How many more times will someone ask how to change their plan before this promo expires......I guess 7.

If there's already 17 pages of replies to a post, chances are your question has been asked and answered more than once. 

[Lelievreaj]

If you enable this plan, it will take effect whenever your next billing cycle starts 

[Muldersarah1979]

Will this able in July the 40 plan 

[Lelievreaj]

Just head to my account, and under my plan you can have it change on your next billing cycle
