In May my plan changed from a $10/month plan to a $15/month plan. Why was this done without me aski

hi @Lil16 you sure it is now $25 plan?? 

and there was no $10 for over 2 years, it became $13 plan for long time

check My account and see what the plan description.  You could have accepted a plan upgrade offer by sms and replied yes by mistake

Yes, I was aware of the change to rewards, I do not like it but the question is how they were able to change my plan from $10 per month to $25 per month, I do not need or want the expanded plan. Thanks.

@Lil16 

you might have missed the announcement back in March about the rewards system change 

PM retired the old reward system earlier (May 2024) and everyone migrated on the new Public Points system. 
https://www.publicmobile.ca/en/bc/get-help/articles/move-to-public-points

With this new system, you pay the full amount first (with the Available Funds on your My Account or via your credit/debit card on the system), and hence you see a higher charge now. 
After renewal, PM will give you the points to your reward account within 48 hours.  Once you collected 15 points, you can redeem $15 bill payment yourself to bring the next payment down.  Or you can also use points to buy add-ons with a discounted price

For how to earn points with Public Points,

• you will get the same friend referral, 1 point (= $1) for every referral every month.
• Instead of $2 autopay, you earn 5% back in point on your plan renewal or add-on purchases from credit card or vouchers
• Instead of loyalty rewards, you will 10 points on your Anniversary day with PM every year 
• You will still earn Give-Back rewards by participating in the Community. Everyone has a chance to earn  1/2/5/10/15/20 points depends on the overall participation of the month 

I have to admit Public Points rewards is not as good as the Legacy rewards system, but you are still saving money, just in a slower pace
