Hi I joined Public mobile a few weeks ago, and am using a LG model H831. My texting and calls work fine. Data is on plan and doesnt work.
I cant find Public mobile's compatible phone list... I did search the forum and found APN details and entered all access point names. Still not working.
Can someone escalate this to mods if there is no known solution? as I went to Telus and they cannot help me further.
Thanks

@Kbeata - are you comfortable doing a Factory Reset at this point?

Telus data service will impact cell phones that made before 2017 starting July 2023. Because your LG H831 was made in 2016, it could be the reason that data doesn't work.
Try turn off the phone, remove sim card, wait a couple of minutes, then put in sim card and reboot the phone. Make sure turn on the data on your cell.

@Kbeata - looks compatible to me from here: https://www.frequencycheck.com/carrier-compatibility/XOLqcdR/lg-g5-h831-lte-a/public-mobile-canada
Some LG phones have been known to need a Factory Reset.
But before doing that, do you have the option to try a Reset of the Network Settings first?
You may find this here... tap Settings > System > Advanced > Reset options > Reset network settings.
