@CS_Agent my data add on is not working. I have reset my phone and followed all trouble shooting previously provided. What can I do to get this working because I am unable to receive my messages unless connected to wifi.

You don't need data to send receive SMS texts @Shannon7 

If you prefer to use iMessage, then you can perform the following steps to try and fix the issue:

  1. Connect to the internet using WiFi or Data.
  2. Go to Settings > Messages and toggle iMessage OFF.
  3. Turn your iPhone off completely, then turn it back on.
  4. Go back into Settings > Messages and toggle iMessage ON.
  5. Make sure “Send as SMS” is also turned ON.

@Shannon7   Login My Account again using Incognito mode to confirm the add-on purchase was completed and you see the data add-on there

try to reboot phone again and test both mobile data and iMessage

if nothing work, try to send via SMS or MMS for now, and open ticket with support to have them check your account again:

**Monitor your Community inbox (envelope icon on top right) after the ticket is opened.  CS Agent will reply to you there

@Shannon7 OK, sounds like you've done the right things.  Try contacting CS Agent via private message.  I don't think tagging them will cause them to reply.

It is iPhone to iPhone so it’s my iMessage that is the issue due to the data. I am unable to browse the web also.

I do not have any data left so that’s why I purchased an add on of an additional 1 gig. I mention my messages not working because I am an iPhone user so it’s my iMessages not going through because of the data.

@Shannon7 knowing your phone platform is important iphone or android.  Also who you're trying to message, are they are iphone or android.  If both are iphone and you're using Messages it will require wifi or data as you say.  If you're iphone texting android it will go via SMS which doesn't require data.  Are you also not able to browse the web from your phone either?

You are talking to customers like yourself.

To Contact CSA-agent there are 2 methods:

https://www.publicmobile.ca/en/on/get-help/articles/contact-an-agent

Ticket has to be opened through chatbot - https://widget.telus.tiia.ai/publicmobile/publicmobile.html

Having a ticket is preferred way to contact agent as they might respond faster then receiving personal mail.

If opening a ticket does not work very first time, contact agent directly.

- Send a private message to the CSA - agent by clicking (Ctrl+) Here

Agent’s response is usually between 15 and 120 minutes with a ticket. Private messaging might take longer.

Watch for envelope in top right corner of Community page. It will show Number of unread emails.

@Shannon7   first, did you confirm you still have data left?  Just in case there is some browser cache problem, please login My Account using Incognito mode and check the data there

And you said you have problem with message.  So, is that is message issue or data?

are you on Android or iPhone.?  If Android, download Google Message and set it as the default message app  and test it that way
