@craigcole29 

Check for outages in your area:

https://istheservicedowncanada.com/status/telus

https://downdetector.ca/status/telus/map/ 

 

When you say data is working are you sure this is not through wifi?

Does your account status say Active?

 

If data is working and calls and texts are working...they trying in another phone (as @hTideGnow already mentioned), then putting it back into your phone may help; this can do something on the backend of the account. This was a fix for some similar symptoms, so worth a shot.

@craigcole29   better check out if it is a problem within your own area first

 

But to contact PM , open ticket with them.

 

at : https://publicmobile.ca/chatbot. Follow this to get to ticket open screen quicker:

  1. start by typing : Contact CS Agent
  2. then Click "Contact Us"
  3. then Click "Other"
  4. finally Click "Click here to submit a ticket"
    you will then direct to another page to open ticket.

After ticket is submitted, make sure to check your Community Inbox(top right corner envelope icon) periodically for response from PM's CS Agent

 

If you have problems submitting a ticket, you can also send a private message to the CS Agent (but this can take longer):

Is there a way to personally contact a service representative?

HI @craigcole29    Reseat your SIM and see if it helps

 

Try changing to 3G only.  If after changed to 3G and you don't have any bars, it's a 3G network problem in your area

 

Try putting your PM SIM in another phone to test if you have a test phone around

This just stated today. I’ve been a public mobile customer for several years. This is the first time having trouble.

Is this a new sign up? Or has this just started? Did you change phones? Are you in MB?
