Is it time yet for a 2GB plan for $25?

But why would PM offer this plan?
They're unmotivated to introduce it (at this time) to follow competitors.
They're unmotivated to introduce it (like old times) to lead markets.
Customers always want more data. And customers can always buy more data. Why would providers want to rock the boat and force themselves to meet escalating expectations?
"Because customers want more" is a valid reason for customers but it's not a compelling reason for providers.

At one point, Public Mobile offered 2GB in combination with calls and texts to new customers for $30. Unfortunately, that has not been offered again since July 2019.

I understand that the prepaid option plans probably would not temporarily offer uncapped data.
BUT
Would this not be a good time to add some much lower priced “PROMO DATA ADD-ONS” that don’t expire until all used?

@IWorkForRogers , great question. Why stop at $25/2GB? Let's get greedy and go for $25/3GB. The best way to make this come true is to ask your employer to offer the deal. I am sure Telus will come up with a competitive response. In the meantime, I won't hold my breath on this one.

It could be just a matter of time we may get more for less:

It would be great if PM would offer more data at lower prices. We would need to wait and see if they will make them available,

If you work for Rogers then what are you doing here? Wouldn't it be employee-prudent to keep your money with your employer?
Or are you just stirring things up with the lesser competition?
