Missing add ons

I recently signed into my account for the first time in a while an noticed I no longer have access to the add ons I paid for. I bought 200 minutes of long distance calling plus I received 1GB of data last year from Public Mobile before Christmas. Do these add ons expire? Why did I not receive notification of the add ons expiring?

Looks great! These add ons are more than the ones I lost, so maybe that's the reason they disappeared.


@dh1984   I don't think that would be reason.  It's either they were used up or some error occurred in your account and the mods will rectify it if that was the case.  Good luck!

@dh1984 Nope! Add ons, free or paid (except US roaming), last forever or until you use them all up, whichever comes first.

@dh1984   Log into your account, select Purchase add-ons (halfway down the overview page), then select the two $0 add-ons and purchase, there will be no charge.

@dh1984 On your main self serve page select Purchase Add oNs. Scroll down and select the free minutes and free data. Then at the bottom select Buy/Purchase add ons. Easy peasy.

 

DOn't forget to come back here and let us know the results of the mods investigation!

Thanks.

 

I don't see anything out of the ordinary.

I know for sure that I haven't used all of my 200 mins long distance so for it to disappear is definitely a problem on Public Mobile's end.


@dh1984   Message mods either via the chatbot bubble bottom right of the screen or private message Moderator_Team via this link: https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/notes/composepage/note-to-user-id/22437

 

They will be able to take a look at what happened.  Meanwhile don't forget to add your free holiday gifts from PM.

I can only check usage from the last 30 days.

It doesn't tell me if the addons were used or not, but I'm not showing any long distance calls.


@dh1984 So have you contacted a moderator?

@dh1984 You can select the last 3 months using the second line to select dates.

@dh1984 What does it show when you check usage for the last 3 months? Sort the results by type to make it easier.

@dh1984   You can message mods to take a look at your account, but usually if the lines for those items don't appear in your overview page, then it usually means that they've been used up.  Mins are also rounded up.

If it is not listed under My Data & Add-Ons it means it was consumed. Contact a moderator if you think there is a mistake.

Add-ons do not expire unless they have been consumed over time.

Contact a moderator to look into this.

@dh1984   They don't expire but once they've been used up then you need to purchase another add-on. 

 

Did you get the free holiday gifts PM announced for this month?  Available until the end of the month in your add-ons selection, 2GB plus 500 international mins.

 

Edit:  as to the not receiving the notifications at 75% and 95% usage, my experience is that it's a bit of hit and miss for the alerts unfortunately.
