I am going to Jamaica in February. How can I continue to use my phone and data while I’m there?

You can't use Public Mobile plan in Jamaica. Public only serves Canada with roaming only in US and Mexico. To listen to the voicemail messages, you need to call your Public number from a different phone number and press * and type your voicemail passsword to get in.

Yes, customers can leave a message with your voicemail while traveling to Jamaica. With active service, voicemails can be received and would stay available for 10 days.

you can't use your Public Mobile service anywhere other than Canada or USA or Mx. You can buy a travel data sim on-line that should work with WhatsApp.

Unfortunately, Public mobile does not offer roaming services (besides US and Mexico).  Your PM mobile phone number will not work in Jamaica.  You will need to purchase a domestic SIM card, etc.
