Last Name

[cedarpt]

You ask to register with your first and last name which is **bleep**an. It would not accept mine because it begins with **bleep**.

Welcome to Public Mobile - its okay to use a different name - just remember what you chose!  I hope everything else goes smoothly for you!  Enjoy the savings!

@cedarpt use another name to register on the account, one that doesn't set off the profanity filter. Write it down. As long as the credit/ debit card payment accepts your real name. You should be okay. Welcome to PM.  Stay safe.

@cedarpt that's okay you can use whatever name you like. it does not have to be your real name. in fact it's better you use a fake name for better personal security.
