Nah, just get rid of the 3g plans (make them all the same speed)

I've never agreed with this use of 3g and 4g terminology. At Public Mobile, 3g and 4g mean nothing more than the speed setting. While I believe that most of society refers considers 4g to mean LTE, Telus and several others carriers decided to start calling what was always referred to as the 3g network to 4g.  It's no wonder that confusion continues.  Many phones even show a 4g icon when connected to the "3g" (HSPA) network.

Important thing is that it will take 48 hours for the new speed to come.  Some, make sure you wait 48 hours, then you can use Speentest.net app to test the speed  🙂
