There is no customer service support. I just want to find out why my email is being used for someone elses accounr.
Solved! Go to Solution.

@Jordanclark1 : Did you get that number in the welcome email?
Another piece of information is that the account number of the account is embedded in the To: It starts with 1 and a bunch of zeros and then more numbers. That would also help the CSA's....if you're willing to help at all.
09-21-2021 01:21 PM
Then its a closed case.
09-21-2021 01:10 PM
@barrascuk I think OP has only the last 4 digits of the phone number
Honest, I don't think there is anything else for OP to do.
PM will work with the line owner to change the email address. They won't make the change by just talking to OP.
09-21-2021 01:10 PM
The number is xxx-xxx-7231 or something. Dont have it all or I would

or just meant you are waiting in the Community? You don't have to wait. I guess you have done what you need to. Tell them the email address used was wrong. I don't think there is much else you can do.
OR.....call the number that they confirmed with you and let the person know. They have to change their email with a CSR themselves. And THAT person may not even know and also may not know they should have expected that confirmation email.

@barrascuk : Which is why I suggested earlier for them to keep a close watch on their financials.
We still don't know how much of his identity is being used here. The welcome email has his email address and deducing from that probably his name. There could be many Jordan Clarks in Canada. Maybe one of them uses a numbering scheme for their emails. Maybe that one signed up here.
But nor do we know for a fact that jordanclark1 is made of his name.
So I say watch the money. This place shouldn't matter as there is no credit or debt here.

But @Jordanclark1 may feel he is being scammed or financially committed to something and wants to clear his identity "away" from any obligations.
09-21-2021 12:54 PM
@Jordanclark1 : In your case you will obviously need to use the private messaging method mentioned earlier.
But I'm also kinda with softech here that you likely don't need to do anything. This is likely a typo. So all you would be doing, if you so wish, is informing the company that an account seems to have a mis-typed email address. That would be mighty neighbourly of you but I would say not necessary. You could block/unsubscribe to any more emails if you like. The actual correct customer will figure it out eventually and get the email address changed if they haven't already. The account shows the registered email address. They might have logged in and saw the typo and already asked for the change.
09-21-2021 12:54 PM
But your are ok to be on hold for an hour to talk to a live agent?

I can believe that this support could be helpful if i was a paying customer with real issues with the product. Having to seek assistance through a public forum and not being able to speak or discuss this with anyone with accountability is problematic (for those of us with issues with this company and cannot be verified as paying customers). Their website asks me to contact the commission of complaints for telecom services if im not able to submit a ticket

You might want to hang around here a little longer. You will find that customer support is not all that bad. And I would say that a lot of the issues are self imposed and as well a lot of issues are resolved here, in the Community by the Community. And when you do have to contact a CSA my experiences have been very good and no loss of service.
09-21-2021 12:12 PM
@Jordanclark1 I wouldn't do anything more myself. It is very common people fill in the wrong email address. In this particular case, you didn't loss anything. You can just leave it.
You have done a great job in notifying the PM Customer Support about this and you can leave it with them to contact the owner of the number.
09-21-2021 12:11 PM
I doubt it. The person only purchased 100 minutes of prepaid time using some voucher.

I have messaged an agent but no response
In that case, we could very well see the true owner turn up in this forum asking for help to get into his/her account! 🙂

i hope they fix it for you as soon as possible,
Good Luck...

@Jordanclark1 : How much of the email other than email address is you? All I see from a welcome email from a couple years ago is first name.
And with your username, maybe you put your name out in many places. Are you jordanclark1@gmail.com or some such thing? Don't answer.
I agree with changing your email access password. I would keep a close eye out on your credit cards and financial logins. But I also agree that this was a typo from someone and that they didn't get that email.

Did you get email saying 'Plan Purchase Confirmation'?
PM account cannot be active unless it is paid for.
If you got that message that means somebody has access to your email. Change password immediately for starters ans contact PM CSR to clarify. It will take some time but CSR will help you out.

Actually i have no way to get support without being a paying customer. I didnt sign up. I can see if you want a discount service go ahead.

And I would like to know WHY I am getting spam in my mail box (not PM) every day when I never gave my email to spammers. Why I am offered dating services, pills, get quick schemes, etc.....?
Even if PM had customer support how on earth they would be able to answer your question?

This is NOT bad provider nor its support is bad.
It is clearly stated on PM site that there is NO live customer support, period. That is why prices are low and reasonable with excellent coverage and service. You cannot have it both.
'Customer support' is provided by customers (volunteers) logging in to Community. Such support from my experience so far is SUPERB! and rivals best live support.
Account/billing issues are handled by CSR through email which is acceptable to me.
It is very unfair to call PM support bad as buying knowingly cheap car and later bitching it is missing all kind of features comparing to $70K car.

There is customer service here but it goes via messaging.
PM is a Tier 3 operator and it takes a different support model. In return, customers get slightly cheaper plan to offset the different support model. It might not be a model that suits everyone but I think it is unfair to say it is "bad" customer support just because the model is not what you are used to
