Here's my post! https://twitter.com/SScrad/status/1191178711351078913?s=19

I pay 35$ (including rewards) a month for 4.5 gigs + a free bonus gig just because Public Mobile is amazing. Stop overpaying for cell phone plans #PublicMobilePDA

Fingers crossed!

Public Mobile... like a third ex wife, only cheaper.

 

Public Mobile... more affordable than my children.

 

Public Mobile... someone who'd win more seats in the Federal Election than the Green Party.... what... too soon?

 

And finally....

 

Years ago when I was backpacking through western Europe I was just outside Barcelona hiking in the foothills of Mount Tibidabo, I was at the end of this path and I came to a clearing, there was a very secluded lake and there were tall trees all around, it was dead silent and across the lake I saw a beautiful woman but she was crying... she wimpered that she didn't have cellphone reception. So I gave her my Public Mobile phone because it had crystal clear reception to call home. True Story. The End. #PublicMobilePDA

 

Here, because some of you don't understand the story above.

Best service i ever had

First time ever that prices don't change, that there's no surcharge, I'm never asked to buy more. I can go anywhere and call anywhere in Canada without thinking will my phone work. And for much much less then before.

Thank you Public Mobile

I like how they reward returning customers, and longevity of using their product. Kind of like employee retention which I'm sure they must be great at.

Thanks PM - I have never pushed a product as much yours. 

 

#PublicMobilePDA

 

Ah, a new promotion...Nice! I initially thought "oh sure, they wait until I switch down from $40 to $15 plan over the winter when we are not at the cabin much", but they are giving the equivalent of the $50 plan for 12 months, not 12 months of the plan you are currently on... that is More than FAIR!

 

Now the only problem is that I only stray onto Facebook a little, no Instagram or Twitter for me. The use of Twitter by One BIG TWIT south of the 49th ensures that I will not stray over to Twitter.

Over the years I have had cell phone plans with Rogers and Bell and now I am very thankful that I have finally found and switched my cell phone provider to PM .

Simply put I love PM:

(1) Because of the great reception I get not only in the GTA but also in the surrounding communities. 

(2) When occasionally required I love the quick and easy hassle free way to get answers to my questions through this the PM forum.

(3) Lastly but also important I love the very reasonably priced PM cell phone  plans.

One year's service...wow that's a great prize!:)

The best thing about Public Mobile is that it offers so many different ways to reduce my monthly bill.  Between autopay, referral, loyalty and community rewards it's almost impossible not to save.

Thanks PM for lower my monthly payment since I activate my first PM account on July 2018.  I started with a $45 5,5GB data plan.  Since then, PM had offered plan with more for less cost.  I am currently on the $40 with 5GB data. 

 

I am looking forward to get my loyalty $5 off per every 30 days after 5 years just by stay with PM.  Together with PM autopay and referral rewards, I am paying less.

 

Currently, I have 6 PM accounts that I manage for my family members.  Be careful that PM plans will grow on you.  It is a good thing.

I love that it's a great service on Canada's best network for people that want to save money and don't want to be in a contract with a new phone every other year!
