Problem with account

I just subscribed with public mobile. My service works great on my cell but I don’t have access to my account. It says forbidden. And log me off automatically. I can I have access to my account?

The problem with the chatbot is that you need to login to submit a ticket. I had the same issue as OP and we cannot log in with the forbidden A1 error until support refreshes our account on their end.

Explain your issue and they will help you. When they reply you'll get an email notification and it'll also appear in your community direct message inbox. I hope that helps!


Customers need to be using the chatbot whenver possible.  Sending a private message in the above manner will cause slowdowns because it leads to unnecesssary back and forth for account verification.  These types of private messages are also given a lower priority than tickets submitted using the chatbot.

I know that yuo're asking for a real person, but you'll need to go through the chatbot to open a ticket. That will enable contact with a customer support agent.  https://widget.telus.tiia.ai/publicmobile/publicmobile.html

Just wanted to share an update that customer support fixed my login issue on their end and everything is working perfectly now. Reaching out to them directly was the best way forward. Good luck!

Thanks. Question about the pin number. Yesterday when I was transferring from Telus over I received a message that I had set up my PM pin but I actually never set up anything because there was no prompt to select one. Since I can't log in now I don't have a way to view or update the pin. Is there another way to determine my pin?


If you can't log in to your new PM acct to select a pin number, let Customer Support know you haven't selected one yet. Once you're acct is up and running as expected, you can log in to your acct and edit/change your PM pin to your liking.

@jessicam1314  @Glebouthillier 

you should message Customer Support by clicking on the orange bubble on bottom right side of page.

If that doesn't work, use this link to message Customer Support. Make sure to give them as much account info as you can..ie: name on acct, PM pin #, ph number, Acct number...

Same here since yesterday too

I read older threads that it's got to do with our account setup where something didn't go right. Others resolved it by messaging customer support and they had to reset the account to fix it. I'm hoping it resolves on its own or that support can help :')

Same problem here since yesterday.  Assuming that their network was overwhelmed.  Hoping that there's a fix today...
