Public should consider doing this, having a 10 Day Plan for people who Visit, a Concenience

[makkahn28]

I think Public should consider something, like a Plan that for visitors, like a 10 day plan for those who are visiting, this way, Public has some multiple and relevant uses and can be a more convenient way for people who are visiting

@makkahn28, happy to hear from you again.  It's been a while since you provided a labs suggestion.  I gotta give you credit for perseverance.

@makkahn28 Yeah I agree with that idea. $10 plan is not good enough for visitor. PM should have a plan for visitor like 100mins 100 texts 200MB data or something like that. That would be nice

You can add the 200MB add-on to the 50/50plan. $20 for 50 Canada wide minutes, 50 international texts, 200MB of data for $20, pretty fair pricing for Canadian standards...

There is another prepaid provider out there that would sell you 100 minutes and unlimited text to Canada and the US for $20, any data is extra ($10/100MB, $15/500MB etc).

(And putting it with the words of one of my visitors: Tourists will mainly use the calling feature to make a reservation for dinner etc, they are otherwise busy chating with you in person (if they are coming over to see you) and/or do touristy things, they are not spending hours and hours on the phone. 200MB gives them a fair amount of data for their WhatsApp chats. If they need more there is the 1GB add-on or even a full sized plan.)

So, IMHO there are plenty of options in the Public Mobile plan selector already that can be bundled to meet the needs of visitor's to Canada. No need to add more confusion.

If Public Mobile would really want to tap into that market, adding PayPal and/or foreign credit cards to the accepted payment methods would be way more effective.

PM had a 10 day plan but it was discontinued sometime last year.

It's prepaid, so isn't that what temporary users would need?

[makkahn28]

The thing is, that plan is NOT exactly for Temporary use per say

They do need something for the MORE Temporary Consumer Traveler

[MacMe]

They already offer a plan for $10 which can be used for 30 days. I think that would be perfect for temporary users.  Plus you can add extra minutes and data if needed.
