Fair enough, but I disagree. The sign into network on-screen message is the exact message that would be displayed if the meber has ran out of data. It's my understanding that data has stopped working on this account, and that sign into network would explain why it has stopped working.
i thought that op used it up, it doesn't show up in the list
maybe i'm wrong

That's great news
If I were you @RODNEY2008 I would definitely go for it.
Now I can't tell you how long will it take to get that bonus, you may get it tomorrow or in 2 weeks.
If you can't waste, contact the moderators and ask them to renew you ASAP. If you can wait I would advise that.
Let us know if you have issues adding your credit card, it may be smooth if website is smooth, when website is glitchy and flaky it may reject it. In that case I would advise you to try later.
Oh and I almost forgot, it almost always performs better and smoother in incognito mode, so you should try there right away
Cheers

You can actually register now and have it for the next billing cycle.
Does anybody know if he would need to choose the 25 plan again or would it be automatic

For 25 you get 500m of data
If you are on autopay you get another 500 bonus and $2off
For 40 you get 4.5g of data but if you are on autopay you get 5g and $2 off
You can set limits on your phone to worn you that you are approaching the limit
It's at the same place where you would see data usage
Here is an example on my phone
But the counter on your phone will not be the same as on system just close enough for kinda reference

I combined the messages threads into one as they were both the issues that you're have with data services.

Oh you should turn on autopay.
Website is not stable so you may have to try adding your card couple of times, I suggest don't do it too many times so it doesn't get flagged.
When you login to self-serve click on make payment, then manage Visa, than add your card. Make a small payment to make sure it works.
You can still buy vouchers or withdraw manually, that's totally ok. Just the fact that the autopay is on will give you 500 megs of data every month and the little $2 bonus.

@RODNEY2008 That means that there is a problem with the certificate of the website you are trying to access. Maybe clear you browser's cache and type in the address into your browser.

Are you on autopay? It doesn't just reduce your plan by $2 but also doubles your data (from 500 megs you jump to 1g). Do you have a credit card that you feel comfortable registering with public mobile?
I'm using 250m and I find I have to restrict data on lots of apps.
I don't know anything about iPhones, but in Android if you go to your settings, and then data, below your data usage you can see the apps that use the most data, they are in decreasing order.
You can tweak the usage interval to match your renewal date and that will show you how much your phone measured you used different that period. It should be very close maybe just a bit less than real use.
Start with the top app and when you click on it you will have option to restrict background data. It is good thing to do unless it is an essential app, you don't want to restrict messages or phone. Once restricted those apps will wait for WiFi signal to do most of the background downloading and taking to their hosts.
To get more data you have couple of options, wait and use only WiFi or ask moderators to renew you early or buy add-on it is expensive but it never expire

@RODNEY2008- 1 GB is quite a bit if only using for emails and basic web searches. That is unless you have emails that are huge. Did you check background apps?

$25 plan has 1 GB of data (if you are on autopay). 1 GB should be enough for your needs, but sometimes, your phone will use up more data than expected. Other apps in your phone can use data in the background, or if there is an update, you could use much more data.
