Sorry, I hate adding to the noise but didn't want my question to get buried in the current threads.
I am on the mentioned plan however I moved last summer when it was targetted to Freedom customers only.
Has anyone else received this text also on the same plan but came over in June of last year and not in the fall of 2016? As of this second I have not received the text nor have two family members also on the same plan.
Specifically, this is the $120/12GB/90 plan.
I know I should wait for things to quiet down a bit but I have several trips planned over the next few weeks so need to get things planned ahead of time. 
No surprises eh?
Unreal...

Yes, see here:
I spoke with CCTS in a live chat conversation and the representative told me that nothing can be done until the proposed changes are active.
Which means that we have two options:
1. We switch to Koodo prior to March 15, 2018 and take them up on their $40/month offer
or
2. We stay with Public Mobile until at least March 20, 2018 for the price to go up by $10/monthly, then file a complaint with CCTS. Telecom operators are then obliged to reverse the proposed changes.
It is pretty clear from the wording provided from previous posts (and the attached screenshot) that Public Mobile has promised that the price for this promotion will not change as long as we remain active customers. So it is very likely we should be able to keep our plans.

You will get the text after you're billed for 3 months of service, similar to what's happening now to those who signed up in Fall 2016 - vast majority have the service paid up until May
I got the text today after I posted this. My next payment would be March 16 so I am counting that as a possible blessing out of all this.
At least I have a month to decide - I still don't have the full terms of the Koodo deal (I mean what I'll be getting from Koodo should I switch) and whether it still works out to a better deal than just taking the increase here. 
My wife and I JUST got this text 5 mins ago!
After referring people etc I pay $34/month or $102 every 3 months for 12GB of data deal that they offered a year ago Nov 2016.
I was TOLD I would permanently stay on this plan so long as I had my renewal enabled on my payments, which I have done.
Now it appears they are going against their contractual terms and word and forcing me to move over otherwise face a $16/month increase in fees!?
This has to be illegal and here I was thinking PM was an awesome no frills service who were trying to counteract all the greed and monopolization of the 3 major telecoms sucking us dry.
Imagine what amount they will be pulling in at $10 per person per month!
Are they now offering phone in support or are we still supporting each other and this is merely a money grab?
Screw you PM...you have proven you are merely a small portion of the larger scum filled pool.
