@dna2016, welcome to PM.  Well said and yes this truly is an innovative form of service.  The next year will be an interesting one I think finding its place in the market.  I think they have kind of gone through an identity crisis.  When I first joined (9 months agao) it was a low cost company targeting the big carriers.  Most of here think that they have been scolded by them for taking to many top teir customers to the low cost carrier here.  So now we seem to be targeting the 3rd teir provider.  I am hoping this will change again and go back to trying to change the Mobile landscape of Canada, but not holding my breathe.

Very nice to see PM recognize and acknowledge those who are positively contributing to the community. Definitely a great way to honor the loyalty of their customers, along with the monthly credit. I've just completed my first month as a PM customer and I have to say I'm quite impressed how PM has created a great environment and forum for their existing clients. This definitely stands out compared to other providers across North America.

There are no Public Mobile retail locations in any city.  There are stores that sell top ups and sim cards but that's it.  They do not set up accounts, don't offer technical support, and don't answer any Public Mobile question, at least not from any official standpoint.

awesome work guys,

@ute1978, most of the time I sign in, I see that all the threads have multiple replies already 😄

Its great for the person posing questions though.  

It looks like more people are getting rewards as the community grows.  

You can always start a new discussion when you are bored and there are no opportunities to answer in existing threads 😉   

[ute1978]

Right on! Congrats to all badge earners. You deserve it.

With that many active members it gets harder and harder to earn community badges/rewards as there seem to be some members sleeping in front of the computer to wait for a question and then answer it right away. The chance to answer and give a hand is slim. Am I right?

Anyway....I made it to $1 reward.....and I think.... A penny saved is a penny earned.

I switched over from Fido about ten days ago, and it was the community and the top contributors that helped me get through some of the queries and issues about Public Mobile. I wasn't 100% sure if Public Mobile would be good or not, but having everyone suggesting and solutions did go a long way as there is no retail location in the Lower Mainland of Vancouver, BC!

Good job everyone. Your contribution is strongly appreciated. Keep up...

[stonechucker]

Congratulations to all.  I see my named slipped in to the many more category this past month, and I'm not surprised as I left for a few days.

[Acekiller]

congratz! hope i will get to the .5 1 day!

[Mana]

Thank you everyone for all your support and hard work!

Best Regards.

It was a difficult month, with a lot of discussion, opinions, and complaints, especially about the new price plans. Thanks to everyone for their insights and contributions.

[sbreakin]

True, the loyalty $$ is nice benefit to keep costs down. If I can maintain the 5% & get the $4/mo that's super. Later this fall hit my first annual loyalty which I guess will be $1/mo or $3/90days - which could mean saving $7/mo ($4 contrib + $2 auto pay + $1 loyal) so my plan would become $33. Gosh that is really starting to sound ike such a deal compared to my Rogers bills.

Would have been slightly more but lost my referral when fixing my porting issue. I made big effort for referrals last fall & suprisingly few takers. Now with the plan price increase & PM 's fewer contact options - might wait for another special before trying again. Although maybe i can sell the rewards as part of the deal...

Congratulations to all our top contributors.  Especially those that are so quick to reply with a concise solution or new idea. Makes me feel happy to be part of the community (despite the slight eh? after the new plan prices were revealed).   
It looks like after a few top 50% - i might have a 2nd top 5% month (as $4 added to my rewards, will know for sure when badge appears in next day or so).  Wow Funny enough quite proud & happy to be receive the badges. Although more than happy to hep when it's a topic i know well. 

[Samianauman]

That's the best part of community forum we all are on same page. And we all enjoy contribution to this lovely family friendly forum.

[Noosiekins]

Thanks @imm1304! Makes sense now

[shartomjam]

Great job everyone!

[nishufan]

Congrats to all.  Nice Jobs PM team.

[imm1304]

Hey @Noosiekins,

The Available funds balance of $6 is from the day you signed up with PM.  Its for enrolling in autopay.  

Any other Rewards showing in "My Rewards" section will be used on the day of renewal to pay for your bill and the remaining balance charged to your credit card.  

[Noosiekins]

Ok So I'm confused... How does this work then?

In my account, it reads: 

Total Rewards earned ($12)

Available funds in your account($6)

And the Balance: $6.00

Where is the other $6?

[imm1304]

Congratulations to all the top congributors.  Great to see the community is steadily growing with so many super helpful people around.  

@ShawnC13, wow, you will be earning loyalty reward soon.  Time really flies!  Its great to have you around so consistently for every single month that you have been with PM.  

@Nsk143, great to see a new name among the top. Congrats!

Thanks to all the community members who make this forum so welcoming, efficient and successful.  July also saw the expanded mods team take charge of customer service... thanks and welcome to all the new mods @CS_Agent to the wonderful community.

[Michael77]

Congratulations to you all on your achievement. 🙂

Congrats to all top contributors.
Let's continue to stay together and keep up the good work.

[mtfolks]

As frustrating as the recent plan changes have been, the community is still a very positive part of the PM experience. Lots of great people willing to help. 

Thanks to all for their time and congrats especially to those that mentioned above! It truly is appreciated!
