Can't access account

[Booiegirl]

My husband can't access his public mobile account because he doesn't remember his password and the email account associated no longer exists so he can't do "forget password".  What does he do?

You're correct. Guess I got mixed up with the community password change process.

The fact that "the email account associated no longer exists" doesn't matter if you still remember it Edit: For login purpose only. With that email as user ID, you still can use the "Forgot password" feature if you remember the answer to your security question.

If you want to change the email address though, you'll need to ask Customer support to do it for you, using one of these 2 methods:

Open a ticket via:
https://widget.telus.tiia.ai/publicmobile/publicmobile.html (faster response time)
Type "ticket" > Click "Contact Us" > Select your issue > "Click here to submit a ticket↗"

or send a private message to:

https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/notes/composepage/note-to-user-id/22437
and describe your issue. Include your name,phone #, account #, Email address,4-digit PIN to speed up authentication process.

After sending the message, watch your community inbox for their reply.

You'll have to send a private message to CS_Agent

Get help from a CSA and have a new email address and password set up for that account.

Have your husband write down the new email address, password, security question and answer in a secure place for future reference.
