@Gyje6551 better take my advise to open ticket with PM also you can get your reimbursement back and not wait for another month to find out they charge you more 

And no need to Airplane mode.  PM already knows your IMEI for the new phone. Just the accounting system not updated yet, and Airplane mode would not help.  Better to open ticket

But ask PM to check and update it in the system for you and reverse the $5

Simply open ticket with PM using Expert Messaging.  Click the Orange Chatbot icon on the lower right to start, or use this link  https://widget.telus.tiia.ai/libs/chatbot.html?botId=ZJkWuVb7Hp6EEcTIZKMZbvLwuDV&lang=en&toggle=fal...

Actually, no, this is incorrect. A simple 5 minutes in airplane mode, turning off the phone for 5 minutes and turning it back on and turning off airplane mode, reconnects the SIM card and sends what phone is being used specs to Public Mobile right away. Therefore it will be resolve immediately so the fee will not show up on the next 30 day cycle. 

Also, there is no need to contact customers service. They will not reverse the fee. The fee is there for a reason! This fee covers the legacy 3G network and to offset maintenance costs to keep this running.

Hello @Gyje6551 

Please note when you say "you". This community is run by it's customers. We all all customers here. Nobody from Public Mobile here.

This $5 fee is the 3G fee. Which basically means your current phone is incompatible with the PM network and if you wish to continue using this phone, there is a $5 fee. This is basically forcing you to upgrade your phone to something on the approved list. Like Samsung, Motorola or iPhone.

Which phone are you currently using?

Most likely +$5 as you have incompatible phone. You need VoLTE PM approved phone.
