Has anyone else noticed there cell phone internet keeps dropping? Mine started after I switch my plan, was always around 4pm it drops and only for a min but I use my phone for work and yesterday it happened 5 times through out the day. I’m at the point I’m gonna switch companies because I can’t figure out how to contact anyone from public mobile.

All good suggestions so far....
You can also try toggling airplane mode on/off. You could experiencing a poor connection to the network. This will re-estabish a brand new connection to the network.

When you changed your plan did you do a restart of your device?
Doing a reset of your Network Settings would not hurt either.
Here are links to check for outages in your area: https://www.telus.com/en/on/outages

If this was connected to changing your plan and issues only started since the plan change, you could share this with the Moderators.

I did notice some data issues on Wednesday. After restarting the phone, data started working again. For me, I do believe that there was a network problem, but also that the reboot quickened the resolution.

do one thing take your SIM card out and waiting for a minute and put it back and do rebooting your phone - This one is quick and simple. Make sure your phone is off before removing and reinserting its SIM card.
Remove your phone’s battery - Some phones have removable batteries. Sometimes removing and reinserting the battery can fix certain issues. Just make sure your phone is off before you do this.
what is mean for Rebooting the phone means to turn off your phone and turn it back on again.
please make sure APN Settings On your device,

@ald2209 , is the signal strength in your locale good? Connection drops can be attributed to many factors. This service runs on one of two national cell networks. So changing carrier brands may not necessarily improve the cellular connection.
