Cleary the oracles are here daily..help with every situation..since there is no longer an idea section ill post here..they are obviously trusted..they know whats going on...and with the amount of problems people face daily PM should give them a better pay package ..lol..even the ability to help a loyal customer stuck without service due to a bad prepaid voucher...credit card mishap.etc.just to get somone talking.for sure people would try take advantage but...an Oracle has the knowledge to know fact from fiction. Would be a good promo for PM..total comunity involvement...anyhow..thx to all of you..you know who you are...👍

I love Public Mobile, and as a subscriber, who has an IT/ help desk background, helping others with their issues is a part of why I contribute in the community as much as I do.
I make no bones about the fact that I dislike the lack of response by the parent company Telus in failing to provide more resources (read money, staff, etc.) to deal with the obvious failure that is the current support system.
When I joined in the summer of 2016, the community forum was enough to find answers, if you had the right terms to find the solution. Moderator responses were less than 2 hours for account related issues during business hours, and that was with at most 3 moderators.
There are now more moderators, however I do not know how many, nor do I know if they are all full time, nor do I know what knowledge they all have at dealing with all the various issues. That have come about in over 30 months since I’ve been here.
Multiple days waiting for a response from the moderators is unacceptable, and Telus needs to do something to make the much better.
Oracles are terrific folks who spend more time than I here trying to assist. They should be getting more the $20 they receive each month for their commitment to assisting the users who are requesting assistance, whether account related or not.

Hey. I'm no thread police. I've been here since May myself. You've been very active for your first month which is great. I was just nudging you towards doing things right. There was a kerfuffle not long ago where several members of the same apparent household were all bravo'ing and solving each others posts. Even to the point of head scratchers of like that's a solution?
No problem. All of your activity is appreciated. As is everybody's.

Hi @Carld123
Thanks for yours above. To add to that, I was just thinking in my head yesterday that may be the "Oracles" should be given more capacity in resolving technical issues (whoever is techy and interested), cos the moderators delay time is going berserk. I feel they can be interviewed and go through any security check and what have you. And ofcourse PAID

Aswipe of the finger..im not an Oracle cant take it back...anyhow....was a wasted post anyways...frown away......
11-04-2018 03:03 PM
Dude...it's kinda frowned upon to give yourself solutions. You've been working away here for a little while so you're not new here. I see it sometimes with new arrivals so I don't say much.
11-04-2018 02:56 PM
Ok...out of of order.. Lol
11-04-2018 02:53 PM
Yeah no thanks. They can have all the power in the community (other than any private information in peoples' community accounts) but definitely not where the money is. It's not about trust. will13am has explained it. This has been bandied about before.

Worst case scenario...you kow your efforts are appreciated......
11-04-2018 02:49 PM
The guy that thought of the wheel was considered an idiot...lol...any idea isworth putting out there..once twice..thrice...anyhow......
11-04-2018 02:46 PM
@Carld123, your suggestion has been brought up before by other oracles. It was dismissed by public Mobile because we are not employees. Due to liability and privacy concerns one customer can't have access to another customer's personal information, at least not sanctioned by Public Mobile. This makes total sense. I for one don't want to steal a moderator''s job for $20 per month.
11-04-2018 02:36 PM
@Carld123 oracles are volunteers and customers. I don't think anyone would want them to have any access to someone's account and personal info.

And on a different note....was downtown Toronto..a homeless guy was sitting near a less for less PM sign....his sign said I'm Les and i want more...lol...
