No, but can I suggest.
Find your last exact date of payment. Enter it into your devices calendar. Ie Buzzard PM payment due and have it repeat every 30 days. Then search your calendar for “Buzzard PM payment due” and then screen print it. You now have a list of your next payments due. Set alerts to your needs and make sure notifications for your calendar is on. You can also print the screen print from your Photos app too.
Also as mentioned use the warning text and top up your account immediately. Or use your newly developed calendar input. Or pay 2 months ahead and every text after, pay for one month ahead. So basically you have one month of slack to top up. You still receive the $2 off. You can prepay a few months ahead too, if you choose. This option also protects you from the auto-pay glitch. While it never happens to very many I did have it happen to me a few times over a 14 year period when on the Telus prepaid system. Always fixed quickly, but you have to discover it first and contact them to fix. But the phone means so much to our day to day life......why not avoid the issue...?

@Buzzard , note Public Mobile plans are 30-day plans, not monthly. So if you are looking to pay the same day every month consistently (through manual top ups/vouchers), you will need to set a reminder for yourself each time to do it, as the payments days fluctuate slightly month to month.
As @kb_mv posts as long as you have autopay enabled you will be eligible for your $2 reward.

@Buzzard No. What a lot of seasoned people do is go in when they get the reminder text and make a manual payment. You still get the autopay reward as long as card is on file.
