You should try turning off your phone and turning it back on. It should work

@gracekv 

Was the texts from this company working before your data ran out?

The text is coming in from the States I think.

Sorry, I assumed Paypal.  PayPay looks like a Japanese type payment company....   

 

I wonder if it worked before?  See what OP clarifies.  Some short code texts from outside Canada is not supported by Public mobile.

@gracekv  "PayPay" ?

 

Do you mean paypal?

 

Were you getting messages from paypay before?

 

Did you port your number in or was your phone number a new selection when you signed up? If you ported in, where did you port the number in from?

Running out of data should not affect your texting.  You are still receiving texts from your friends.  

 

I did a quick google search and there have been reports from others outside Public mobile that also had issues with receiving texts from Paypal.  You might want to contact Paypal.
