@Bill2 Jeremy has said they will honour future dated promos so you should be fine. Correct @Jeremy_M?

[makkahn28]

true

[mimmo]

@Bill2 if you future date a plan change that will be the plan you get even if the promo is over.

[mtfolks]

@makkahn28 They're obv getting ppl to trade a 3 month committment in exchange for a better price. I'm personally okay with that as it's more than a fair trade. 3 months is not a big commitment unless someone is a habitual promo/provider jumper. 

I'm pretty ecstatic to see a return to overall competitive pricing. Nice to see. 

[Bill2]

Just wondering. I recently switched to PM on a 90 term. I just today chose one of the new plans to automatically  switch to when my 90 days is up. My question is, if the promotional plan I chose is no longer available at that point will my plan still switch to it?

[makkahn28]

BUT, the 30 Day Plans can be more priced better

Take the Unlim Can-Wide US+Global Txt+2GB, $57, should be $52

The 1GB Version $48

The 3GB+1GB Bonus, $62, should be $58

The 5GB+1GB Bonus, $72, should be $68-$69 range

Just saying, tring to make things more competitive is key too overall success

On top OF More tasty options as well

[MK78]

While its good that PM revised the plans, i still only see $10/200MB & $30/1GB data addons in my account, should i require more if I run out.

Would be good if those came down a tad also, charging $30 for 1GB is a bit high.

Maybe something like this?

$5/100MB

$10/250MB

$15/500MB

$25/1GB

[makkahn28]

The Plan I am on, for $150, on the initial raised up version was $60 over, Now it's $15, that's pretty much within the Fair Pay, I love the 9GB+3GB Bonus, BUT wished PM had the 3GB+3GB Bonus, and/or 6GB+3GB Bonus as well

[makkahn28]

The Price for the 4G LTE Plans is now priced VERY competitively.

@Jeremy_M, why did PM list the 4G Plans at time over-proportionately that some PM Clients found insulting.

Wished PM had more Add-On Data options, like the 500MB, 750MB, 2GB Add-On Data option, as Finding the right amount of data that PPL won't waste and use within duration of cycle, wished PM had more of these options as well

[mimmo]

I am very happy with the new pricing and new promo.  PM listened to the users and possibly looked at how many people signed up under their last price adjustment.

I wish everything I needed today was the price it was last year, but it's not.

Let's move on from last year's fall promo pricing, be happy that PM is now more competitive and start refering  people.

For those with a need for Canada-wide calling and unlimited text, the new price structure provides a little bonus:

90-day, Canada-wide calling, unlimited global text, no data for $105

90-day, Canada-wide calling, unlimited global text, 1.5GB at 3G speed for $105

30-day, Canada-wide calling, unlimited global text, no data for $37

30-day, Canada-wide calling, unlimited global text, 500MB at 3G speed for $37

That's right - same price!  If all you want is Canada-wide calling and unlimited global text, you might as well grab some data for no additional cost 🙂

These prices do not include AutoPay, so minus $2 if you enable AutoPay.

The prices are more reasonable now, maybe I will get back to referring. Only if the $45 4GB plan was with Canada wide calling, then I’m sold for sure

Well your wish for a plan that you can get with 4 gigs of data at a good price has been answered.  While it's ludicrous to use the term long distance in the 21st century, what can we do when Public Mobile emphasizes province wide calling in their promos.  Perhaps their typical user profile is someone who calls a lot of of province.  This pricing scheme allows them to make money on calls.  I am sure you are resourceful enough to work with province wide calling and not break the bank.  Think Google voice, WhatsApp, hangouts dialer for example.

If these are now the standard prices, then a $40 for 4GB promo again still seems viable 

[X-Files]

Thanks for listening, good news coming at fall ...

[mazejaeh]

Awesome plan, just made the switch 🙂

[evanh]

Definitely a wonderful news.

Time to refer some more friends especially on the $45 4GB promo plan.

Way to go PM!!

Yes for now.

Prices you see on the plan page calculator doesn't include AutoPay. If you want to verify prices posted elsewhere, refer to the plan page calculator.

[mtfolks]

These changes are welcome news. Thanks for listening. 😁

[NDesai]

There you go folks once again. It is what most users wanted to see. Thanks PM.

Guys, if you have any general questions regarding the new prices, feel free to tag us Oracles instead of Jeremy and we will try our best to answer. Let Jeremy handle some important stuff 🙂

[zhadj030]

@aip0401, I see, help.... I am getting old, and I cant see stuff now XD

[aip0401]

@zhadj030 No, you have to opt into Autopay, but it's pretty easy to do so from your My Account page.

[aip0401]

@xCameron94x Oh yes, I'm aware. Fongo data usage is pretty low too (~0.5 MB per min), so regardless of whether or not you're on Wi-Fi, you can save quite a bundle if you just pick the provincial-wide plan.  

[Adam345]

Excellent thank you! I'm so glad I left Bell Mobility!

[zhadj030]

@Jeremy_M, are the new prices have the autopay already included in them, ?

** on a 90 day plan with a $2 AutoPay reward/30 days activated.

[zhadj030]

About time. I hope those prices stays like this 

[pakmode]

Good stuff PM.

Good to see these new initiatives and price points.

[mimmo]

@Jeremy_M  are these (other then the $45 promo) the new standard prices?

[Luddite]

The RFD chart pricing assumes you sign up for autopay.

[MoreYummy]

Many like the new pricing structure now.  Good move!
