Just noticed that in January I was double charged. Same day same amount on my credit card bill. What can I do?
Solved! Go to Solution.

True but it should only be 1 charge.

Hi @rosieclown PM could use different merchant name for payment on credit card. The worst one is they even use Koodo as the merchant name

No i didn't manually reactivate the plan. It's weird as one charge says public mobile and the other says SP Public Mobile from BC. Called the credit card, both charges went through. I opened a ticket.
Thanks!

@rosieclown fyi, PM is running on 30 days cycle , so your payment date will shift up one day after a 31 days month, but will shift down 2 days after this February
Just one more question, did you try to manually reactivate the plan on Jan 3 or 4 or try to change plan that day? I wonder if you accidentally do something. Also, login to My Account using Incognito mode, go to Payment History page and see if PM shows 2 payment transactions on Jan
Either way, you should open ticket with PM for further investigation.

there is no credit in my account.

@rosieclown No, I meant regular "monthly" renewal. PM is prepaid, so they will get plan renewal charge at the beginning of each cycle. If your Jan renewal was on Jan 4, your Feb renewal should be on Feb 3rd. do you see any charges on your credit card in Feb?
02-13-2023 04:25 PM
don't think my plan renewed - I didn't cancel it.
02-13-2023 03:02 PM
Yes, I agree it is not a pending charge.,
Seeing that it was from Jan 4, I really doubt it was a pending one
@rosieclown you plan also renewed on Feb 3, I believe, was it just one charge or two?
02-13-2023 03:00 PM
You have 2 options:
1 - the overcharge will remain in your account as credit and will be applied to your next month’s bill.
2 - contact a CS_Agent for a refund but it may take up to 30 days to process…time for your next bill.

Thanks @rosieclown
What are the dollar amounts?
Do you see a credit listed since then?
Edit,
Actually, most importantly (as @Handy1 asks also) do you see the extra funds added to your Available Funds balance in your MyAccount?
Are the transactions listed there too in your Payment History: :https://selfserve.publicmobile.ca/en/account/payment/payment-history

Yes I just checked my bill. Only 1 account and did not renew the plan.
one says SP Public Mobile and then right below it says Public Mobile. Same date same amount.
02-13-2023 02:55 PM
No pending charge

@rosieclown you sure it was not a pending charge? but it has been awhile if it was from Jan, so, maybe it was a real charge
If you login to My Account using Incognito mode, go to Payment History, do you see PM shows you the 2 charges?
And Jan was not the first renewal you had since joining? if that was a first renewal, do you recall you had some activation problem and you need to re-attempt activation? Just want to make sure you didn't activate 2 accounts by mistakes
and you didn't make plan change in Jan? Sometimes, people click Change Plan now by mistake
If that was a real charge, open ticket with PM Support and have them to investigate further
1. Please open ticket via Chatbot (need access to My Account): At https://publicmobile.ca/chatbot.
Start by typing "Submit a ticket", then click "Contact Us", Then click "Other", then click "Click here to submit a ticket ↗"
2. If you have trouble with Chatbot or you don't have access to My Account: Private message CS Agent at:
https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/notes/composepage/note-to-user-id/22437
**Monitor your Community inbox (envelope icon on the top right) after the ticket is opened. CS Agent will reply to you there

@rosieclown - this was a charge on your January card/bank transactions?
Do you have more than one account or did you renew your plan early in January by any chance?
Are you able to provide screenshots of your payment history, no personal info. here though on the forum please.
If not, then contact CSA to investigate why.
Public Mobile Representatives customer support agents (CSA) can be contacted by either two methods, found here:

@rosieclown Check credit card and see if one charge is pending and the other has posted , if this is the case the pending charge will drop off
