Public Mobile in Vancouver

[darlicious]

I was curious today after reading a post about calling public mobile so I decided to Google public mobile to see what came up. I was surprised by what came up. I also checked the pm store locator to see that the address matched a retail location listed. Interesting....comments?

@darlicious  Are you suggesting PM may be looking to attract potential customers with retail locations (Telus, Wireless Wave) that offer cell phones, accessories, and service for sale?

I have seen the Public Mobile bus stop advertisements here and there around a Greater Vancouver. Saw a couple in Coquitlam and one is Tsawwassen awhile ago.

@darlicious  I believe those stores are in addition to the LDs, Walmarts, and Wow mobile stores? Does anyone know if the kiosks/stores actually provide us with in-person service, or  they simply help us by making online inquiries to moderators?

Public Mobile does not provide in-store customer support. While Public Mobile kiosks are corporately owned, Public Mobile has stated that even these are not there for support issues. These places provide sales and activation services.

Interesting!!!!?

Are they gonna sell equipment now????

I don't think there is a need for a store just for sim cards.

@cavemantorontoYou didn't get my point....but you are proving my point.

@darlicious Vancouver is a big city. Can't be that few stores. Those could be only kiosks.
