Is there or does public mobile offer a VPN service or option as most services do?

Static IP and VPN service are two totally different beasts.  There's no carrier that offer a VPN service that is a separately purchased item.

I recall maybe Rogers to Telus back in the day offering a special APN (or the CDMA equivalent) that would assign you a static IP address so that certain legacy VPN protocols like PPTP would work, because they didn't work well through a NAT'd connection.

 

All the carriers do carrier-grade NAT for IPv4. Rogers does assign dynamic IPv6 addresses with no NAT, which is great, but Public Mobile does not offer IPv6.

 

I would think most modern IPSEC based VPN protocols that just utilize TCP/UDP should work just fine over Public Mobile's NATed IPv4 though...
