Not able to make calls

[jkrietze]

I can’t make or receive calls. I’m in good standing with my account. I have reset my phone, turned the airplane on and off and I have also tried selecting the public mobile carrrier manually. Nothing works. Please help.

@jkrietze - Were service working previously and this just happened all of a sudden?

Did you just activate a SIM /account with Public?

Check one or the below:

Is your phone locked? Contact your previous provider to unlock it for you. You will need your imei number, dial *#06# to get it.

Check if your phone is blacklisted here: https://www.devicecheck.ca/check-status-device-canada/

Check for outages in your area:

What device are you using?

How is text working if you can't connect to the carrier?  Are you using Imessage or another app?  

Are you also connected to your home wifi network?

@jkrietze but when it is on 3G, does the phone connects to )M network at all?

either way, open a ticket first , although support might not reply till the morming.

[jkrietze]

No change. Nothing works. 

[jkrietze]

I’m active. 

[jkrietze]

Doesn’t matter if I’m on wifi or not. No Cal’s coming or going.

Is that texting on an iphone while connected to wifi? How about can you browse the internet on cell data and not wifi?

[softech]

@jkrietze 

so, it doesn't look like a device issue, it could be account or local network issue

Try changing the Preferred network type to 3G as advised above. Important part is to check if it connects after changing to 3G network

If nothing works I guess it is time to open ticket with Support

1. Please open ticket via Chatbot (requires access to My Account) using direct link: https://publicmobile.ca/chatbot.

Start by typing "Contact agent ", then click "Contact Us", then click "Other", click "Click here to submit a ticket ↗""

**Monitor your Community inbox (envelope icon on the top right) after the ticket is opened.  CS Agent will reply to you there

Texting works fine. Just get two beeps not long after attempting a call

[jkrietze]

I tried taking out my sim and trying in another phone and it didn’t work. Reinserted into my phone and doesn’t work still 

[softech]

@jkrietze text and mobile data work?

what kind of phone do you have? brand and model?

try changing the Preferred network type or network mode to 3G only (or WCDMA only) and see if it connects to PM Network and if voice works

[jkrietze]

Phone not showing anything to say not connecting. 
no I don’t have another phone to try the SIM card elsewhere. I’ll remove it and reinsert. 

[softech]

@jkrietze cam you login My Account  once more using Incognito mode ro confirm 8f account showing Active?

Also, does you phone showing not able to connect to PM network at all?  Any error like sim not provisioned or No Sim or No network?

Do you have another phone around to test the sim card??

[jkrietze]

It won’t let me make any calls at all. I get 3 beeps and it drops the call. No matter who I call, even 611.

@jkrietze 

you still have an Active PM account ? Dial 611 from that cell phone to hear status of your account.

Let us know.
