Hello public mobile community!
First time posting here so barre with me... so i signed up for public mobile 3 months back and love the pricing and don't notice the 3g speed vs lte to be honest. Signed up for the 1gb for 25$/month plan but i see online that it is going up to 30$/month. Is this accurate?
Also, lucky Mobile is offering the same plan 25$/month for 1gb plus unlimited throttled at 128mps afterwards... is public mobile working on offering that as well?
Lucky mobile also has an app for wifi calling across Canada and the US. Public mobile planing on providing something similar?
thank you in advance!

Public Mobole has not given any notice to customers on the $25 plan of a price increase. $30 happens to be an old price a for a plan no longer offereed that included the same features. For a short time, Public Mobile did discontinue this current $25 plan, but that just meanr that if you didn't already subscribe to it, you couldn't get it.

Officially policy is that PM can change prices with 30 days notice. PM often follows pricing on other tier 3 companies like Lucky mobile and Chatr.
PM has not increased pricing on grandfathered plan in the last few years though. PM tried with one of their popular grandfathered plans and there was an uproar and PM backed down on the price increase.

Rates can change given a 30 notice according to SIMon... where did you guys see the grandfather pricing?

I am still seeing the $25 plan on the plan website. Generally, if you have taken a plan, it will be grandfathered at that price and with those features even if it no longer offered. Of course, this is all subject to terms and conditions.

Welcome.
Click the Plans link up top to get the current plans. That's old news that you're seeing about the $25 plan. And besides, if you're in a plan then they rarely ever change it on you. You're grandfathered to keep.
No one here other than employees know what's coming up as far as competing.
