 @darlicious : No I'm not also on opium. 🙂 They appear at first and then disappear. Of course they appear sort of initially. Then I return to All Posts. And iirc they showed there momentarily. And then refresh again and they're gone.

Edit: not in drafts

Are they posting and then disappearing? Or just disappearing? Are they in your drafts? Do they contain an html?

 @darlicious : And I'm trying to help someone in another thread and the post keeps disappearing. Coincidence? 🙂 Maybe this one will too.

It's just an FYI. I won't argue the point or the timing of the edit (17 minutes). I have made spelling error edits years later when I notice them. Anyhow it's just friendly advice.

Oh yes I see that now.

 

@VIP_Tech 

The proper forum etiquette when making an edit that is more than fixing a typo or spelling mistake is to denote the edit. Just an FYI so that other members dont get upset at substantial edits that are not properly noted.

@newfleigh  - did you have many failed attempts? If so, this can happen and Public Mobile may have your account on a fraud alert. 

But this should be cleared up after a waiting period. It has been hours now, likely clear up.

 

Try again now, if you haven't already gotten assistance with CSA: https://www.publicmobile.ca/en/bc/get-help/articles/contact-an-agent

 

Navigate to the bottom, left section of the Payment tab in your Self Serve account and update or replace your credit card info.

@newfleigh 

The first reply to your question is incorrect. There are several reasons a fraud lock can be placed on your account by pm. The most common is trying 5 times or more to attempt to add a payment or add your payment card without success. When this happens you must contact customer support to have it removed. You can then try to add the payment card yourself or easier just get the CSA to add it for you since you are already in contact with them.

 

If time is of the essence then @Anonymous 's suggestion of an instant top up, purchasing a pm voucher and adding it via 611 to reactivate the plan or an RTP (real time payment) available at Canadian Tire gas bars and Mobil stations for a $1 fee and added by giving the clerk your 10 digit phone number is your best bet to paying and reactivating your account before the 90 day suspension deactivation and cancellation of your account occurs.

 

@Anonymous 

I think you may have misunderstood the grammatically incorrect sentence that contacting customer support is not allowed but rather after a fraud lock is triggered that adding a payment card is not allowed. Or at least the ability to do so is not allowed until the fraud lock is lifted by a CSA.

 @newfleigh : I don't know why the above post says you're not allowed to contact the CSA's. Of course you can.

 @newfleigh : What happens when you dial 611? Maybe buy a voucher and redeem it through the 611 service. Or use instant top-up in a few stores. Then figure out the payment card.

I'm not aware of any such "fraud lock" functionality on PM's side. Your bank may have such a feature in place on their side, though. Have you tried calling them about it?
