I’m very thankful for the rewards I get here at Public Mobile, and I’m quite happy on the great plan I currently have. I’ve currently scheduled for the $25 plan on my next renewal, however, I may again decide against downgrading, as I no longer will have the fall back options that are going away.
its sad when the best 3rd tier provider looks at other 3rd tier providers for current and promo offers. Public Mobile was the leader, now they are the follower.

@Alan_K oh wow, thanks for providing the heads up. It's rare to see a company advise customers of when the promo plans are expiring. Most of the time they just remove the plans without notice. Thanks for the heads up, greatly appreciated.

I'm just glad they gave us time to get on the plan before it's removed, so people can get last minute referrals to lock in the plan and people on the fence can make the decision before it suddenly disappeared.
I do hope they add new good plans but you'd think they would have added a "Stay tuned for new plans" or something to it.

If they where I don't think they would be makeing this anouncement...
More exciting offers? If the new plans were going to be better accross the board, I highly doubt we'd know about the plans expiring a week ahead of time. We'd probably just see an annoucement for an instant change and that existing customers can future-date a plan change to take advantage. This annoucement is almost certainly bad news for the customer. I doubt Public Mobile would want the negavity from this annoucement if plans were really going to get better.

However, when competitors raise prices, you don't have to follow suit.
Sure do in a monopoly situation. It is all about being harmonious rather than a fight to the death on lowest possible price.

From what I see on the Quebec bring your own phone plans they increased the data and price stayed the same.. I think only the tab plans went up in price?

A carrier also doesn't have to reduce the amount of data included for plans at a certain price point just because a competitor has either.

Judging by how Koodo increased their pricing, I'm afraid prices might be going up
Oh no 😞 I was hoping for some better pricing on the 90 day plans, I like the idea of pooling my data so I can binge at the end of the cycle.

Eagerly awaits next announcement regarding replacement plans

@Alan_K when you say the 25$ 1gb plan do you actually mean the 500mb +500mb data plan?
04-15-2019 05:21 PM
@Alan_K You do mean talk/text/data plans and not just data only plans?
