Calling 1-855-831-8151 Ontario electric support program out of service

Is anyone else getting out of service when  calling 1-855-831-8151 from Public Mobile? I get this also from voip.ms phone service. Public mobile is suggesting I perform basic reset and if that does not work purchase a new SIM card.

Thank you for your reply and for securing your account!

I've just refreshed your network!

Can you please turn off your device and take out the sim card for 2 minutes and then put it back inside your device and turn it on and tell me if you can make and receive calls, send and receive text messages?

Can you also put your Public Mobile sim card inside another unlocked Android/ Apple device and see if the sim card works and also put an active Canadian Mobile service sim card inside your device so we may determine if there are issues with the sim card or device?
If this doesn’t work please go at a Public Mobile, Wow Mobile, London Drugs or K Mobile stores and purchase a 10$ sim card and then provide us the number to activate in on your account and it should fix the issue and we would then adjust your account with 10$ as if it was free of charge! 🙂

Hello @CellphoneuserPM ,

 

So that means I, also, should obtain a new SIM as well, since I cannot connect to that number either, that is silly.

 

I am not sure Andu understands the issue? You may want to go back to them and clarify the issue.

 

"This number does not connect with your (and mine) Public Mobile SIM card/number, but some other provider's are working. "

Hello @CellphoneuserPM ,

 

I just tried calling through Fongo and it went through okay.

 

I also tried calling through my Public Mobile number and it said "the number that you have dialed is not in service". 🤔

 

Weird, I would mention this to a Moderater: https://www.publicmobile.ca/en/on/get-help/articles/contact-a-moderator
