Erroneous Text Message from Public Mobile

[Bev16]

Folks

Received a text message this morning (Oct 9/25) to (###) ###_#### from 611 Public Mobile stating that I had used up 95% of the data allowance on my account and providing a link to check my account.

According to my account records which I checked online, I have used up a very tiny fraction of the 10 gig allowance.

Not sure if the text message was sent by Public Mobile in error or if it could be a text which is not from Public Mobile.

Appreciate any help you can give to clear that up...

Just got this error this morning Oct 12th 2025. My payment cycle rolls over today too so maybe there's some sort of error going on to do with cycle's and getting these false positive messages.

I received the same message. But when I checked my rewards it said my subscription was suspended. I have 90 days or my phone number will be lost.

I got the same message from the same 611 public mobile number this morning (Oct 9/25).  When I checked my account I had only used 0.1 gig out of 50.  I think it must be a mistake since I never received any %75 warning which public mobile should have sent out first.

check My Account using Incognito mode again.  If it still show you are using just a little bit and not 95% yet, you don't have to worry.  Look like PM sent those text out by mistake
