Thanks for the replies guys. That is interesting about the + email thing, but it still leaves me six log-ins on PM.  I will definitely use that in the future.

 

Coming from freedom, there was a fair bit of annoyance...  I'm sure I'll be happy with PM.

Try this: https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/Self-Serve/Workaround-How-to-create-multiple-accounts..., or similarly with iCloud.

PM is quirky https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/Discussions/Bugs-and-Quirks-at-Public-Mobile/m-p/2026...

but usually stable once you get up and running. No invoices/statements though as it's 100% prepaid.

While it is a little inconvenient you can always set up additional email addresses through your company that your employees don’t have access to for the phones. Still cheaper than any other company!

@David824 PM is a no-frills, pre-paid, single line account set-up.  This is just how it's set up here.  If that's too much administrative overhead for you, then you may want to look at the other telecom providers out there to see if they offer you something that suits your needs better.  I believe on the post-paid side they all will; on the pre-paid side, I'm not so sure--though to be fair I've also never tried finding out that info.

As a bonus though you can refer you spouse and kids to your first account and get a referral reward.
