Remember to take out the SIM and put in a safe place (in a ziplock bag) until you get a new phone then pop it into your new phone.

Hi @Averyjade,

Sorry to hear about your phone. Thankfully you won't have to stress too much about your Public Mobile account while you shop for a new phone. As @Handy1 mentioned, you can pause your subscription for now. Just ensure that you turn on your subscription before the 90-day mark overwise your account will be closed. Essentially, as long as you make a payment within 90 days from your last payment, your account will stay active.

Keep us posted if you have any other questions!

@Averyjade 

this is exactly how to put the account Lost/Stolen

Login to My Account,  go to Profile page,  click Report Lost/Stolen Phone and click Put my service on hold 
(or use this direct link: https://myaccount.publicmobile.ca/en/account/profile/lost-or-stolen-phone)

If you are unable to login as you don't have a phone to receive the 2FA code: On the screen it is expecting you to enter the code, click Didn't get the code? or  Resend code and then choose Send email

Once you got the new phone, login My Account again and Resume service
