I am new to this phone company and didn't think it would be that difficult to get something done. I have topped up my account by picking the wrong plan since I thought that the 50$ 6G data plan I picked was including texting and calling. But it does not, I did not know I had to also add texting and calling in the options. I then paid a balance of 57$ tax included and then surprise, I cannot call or text. How can I change the plan I paid for???? or get a refund, since I even realized afterwards, the data aren't even working either. So I ending up paying 57$ for no data, no texting and no calling. Please help me figure out something or talk to someone to help me. I called one of the numbers of customers service, but th line didn't get through since it told me that the phone number that I registered with the SIM card that I bought and activated did not exist. After clearly registering a phone number of 438-345-xxxx, the public mobile answering machine have told me this number dosent exist. I would have not come to this company if I knew no help was provided at this point. Please help me!!! In a more clear manner, I need a plan that is for using data, calling and texting. How can I get to this in all this mess???!

@Acekiller activation glitch???
Plan A he picked 30 days, no talk, no text, 6GB data (3G) for $50
Realizing mistake he tried change plan to
Plan B 30 days, province wide talk, no text, 6GB data (3G) for $57
@Ayahaaliyah when you do speak to mods, I would suggest another plan change though
$52 will get you province wide talk, text, and 6GB data (3G)
It's cheaper than the $57 option

@Ayahaaliyah thats the second person who said they called the call centre
What number are you actually dialing?
As mentioned above Public does not have a call centre for new clients
Also curious why you think your plan includes features it did not
Call, txt, and data are all chosen at time of activation
So if you picked a plan that said "none" it would not work
