Hi, I've been with Public Mobile for 5 years - tonight just a few minutes ago my iphone suddenly lost connection with Public Mobile, as in no phone calls, texts, data. I tried doing a network reset already but no change. My husband is also on PM and he has service as usual.
Thanks in advance!
Solved! Go to Solution.

@tysonja : Did you suspend your service in the Lost/stolen function? Then change the self-serve login password?
Then run around all your financial logins and make sure nothing has been taken and while you're there change those passwords too. And your email that is linked to your self-serve.
Then contact the moderators here and they should be able to re-instate your SIM and then you can resume your service. Or buy a SIM and change the SIM yourself and maybe they would credit you the cost.
Edit: beat again 🙂

Keep an eye on envelope icon in top right corner for a reply from the moderators.
Go into self service and put your phone in lost/stolen mode and change the password. Go check and secure all your financials and change the passwords. You should also change passwords on other accounts like email, etc.

Are you up for renewal? What is your account status in self service?
Did you try rebooting phone or reset network settings?
Try taking SIM card out and putting back in and reboot.
Go into self service and choose Change Sim Card. Check the last 4 digits against the SIM card in you phone to ensure you have not been sim jacked. If they do not match put your phone in lost/stolen mode and change password. Then check and secure all your financials and contact moderators to get your services back.
