Every month PM subtracts $7 from my bill, $5 for loyalty rewards and $2 for autopay. This month I pay full price, no more rewards.
Do they cancel rewards ?

OK thanks everyone.

@Sergio88pm Did I lost my 6 years of loyalty ? And I'm like a new customer starting at zero.
Not exactly, you should have got 5 points to start you off and a data bonus in compensation. You do still keep any referrals. I know it's not as good but there it is. I can only sympathize having been on points all along, same as everyone else who joined after early 2022.

unfortunately yes. You'll receive loyalty points like a newb each year.

Yes. PM switched everybody to points system. You get 5% points based on your plan every month and every 12 months PM will give you 10 loyalty points. Once you accumulate 15 points, you can convert it into a $15 Bill credit. There are lots of threads discussing and complaining about the change.

you were wondering where the autopay/loyalty discount/friend rewards gone? PM has ended that old system and moved everyone to the new Public Points!!
So, now you have to pay full price first and PM will give you back points after. Instead of loyalty rewards monthly, you get 10 points per year on your anniversary date with Public Mobile. Instead of $2 autopay discount, you get 5% of your plan in points.
And the points are useful to reduce the bill. After you got 15+ points, you will go to rewards site to redeem 15 points for $15 bill credit

you might have missed the announcement back in March about the rewards system change
PM retired the old reward system this month (May) and everyone migrated on the new Public Points system.
https://www.publicmobile.ca/en/bc/get-help/articles/move-to-public-points
With this new system, you pay the full amount first (with the Available Funds on your My Account or via your credit/debit card on the system), and hence you see a higher charge now.
Then PM will give you the points to your point account after renewal within 48 hours. Once you collected 15 points, you can redeem $15 bill payment yourself to bring the next payment down. Or you can also use points to buy add-ons with a discounted price
For how to earn points with Public Points,
I have to admit Public Points rewards is not as good as the Legacy rewards system, but you are still saving money, just in a slower pace
