Cancel my account

[RudiNowak]

Why is there no email or telephone number to contact customer support.  I want to cancel my account and there is no place to do that and they are automatically deducting money from my account which I did not authorize.  I believe that Telus who owns Public Mobile has no ethics with no way of directly communicating with customers.  The only way of getting these guys is to post on FB,Twitter and other media platforms and let them know about Public Mobile and their owner TELUS. I have and when anyone else finds out how they try to treat their customers they should do the same for the the inability to contact the company and not even TELUS who owns PUBLIC MOBILE will not give you information to contact them.  We need to inform the FCC and the Better Business Bureau about this travesty.  My email, should you wish to communicate with me is audinova@gmail.com.  Lets put these people out of business.

We got to get FCC involved

PM is prepaid service.  You don't really need to cancel the service.  All you need to do is to make sure that you no longer paying for the service.  This is how it can be done:

Login to My Account, remove Autopay (Payment Tab, Manage Autopay, then disable it)

You might also want to remove the credit card from Payment Tab.   click Manage my card, the click Remove this credit card.

With all these remove, the current cycle will end and PM won't be able to get money to renew for another cycle.  Account will go into suspended mode and 90 days later the account will be closed and your phone number will go back to the pool.

Hope this helps.

(in your case, I don't think you need FCC involved.  This is strictly something you need to do on your end.  Also , it's no secret that PM support is all online.  You can open a ticket with PM.  But you have done the right thing, posting a question here, you can probably get your answer quickly)

if you want to Cancel your account, just remove your Autopay, and if you want to port your old number to another company and is will be close automatically,

Make sure that you have the old SIM card in your phone when you're porting your number. You should get a SMS message from your old carrier asking to confirm if you would like to port your number. Your reply should be: YES.

The confirmation message can take a few minutes to come in. You have 90 minutes from the time of request.

If PM has been automatically deducting money from your account ,that means you have a credit card registered to your account and set up autopay.

You can cancel your phone plan yourself by logging in , go to the Payment tab and disable Autopay.

You can also remove the credit card from the account by clicking on Manage my card at the bottom of the page.

Once there is no more payment to take from your cc, the account will be suspended automatically and closed (deactivated) after 90 days.

There is nothing else to do from your end.

NB: If you have trouble logging in because of website errors, try using another browser/ incognito mode. That should solve the problem.

 @RudiNowak :The FCC has no jurisdiction here.

This is a prepaid provider. If you don't pay, the service stops. The company is going with _your_ instructions to keep paying with autopay. So log in to the self-serve and remove the payment card or use the 611 service with your 4 digit PIN and turn off autopay or after hearing your next renewal date, pause your payment card for that night and the service will suspend.

There is nothing nefarious happening here.

where did you find this information

[z10user4]

 @RudiNowak : What information?

[RudiNowak]

I had already paid on the account and find they have not ported over my number but they took my money

[RudiNowak]

are you suggesting that they keep my money while they have not provided me with any service as the account is still with Bell and was never ported over
