I renewed my plan a couple days early because I ran out of minutes, talk worked fine last night but today I get the "not included " message. Also I got a text, saying "you recieved a text but text is not included" I've got the $15/30 day plan talk,text,and data, and data is the only thing working, not for long, it's only 250Mb's. I don't think power down and remove the SIM is valid because data is working. Simon doesn't understand my questions. What's a guy to do?

Change APN: to sp.telus.com
Change MMSC: to http://aliasredirect.net/proxy/mmsc (no /mb)
Everything else is as I originally set it up.
When I got home and decided to correct what they did my phone stopped working with the set-up above it works again. Much joy, looks like they messed up and got it right!
Changes to APN settings cannot fix problems with phone calls or text messages. The settings aren't even related to those. sp.telus.com is actually the wrong setting to be using at Public Mobile, so your data isn't going to work any more.
"Sorry, talk not included" and "texts not included" messages are account related problems on Public Mobile's end. Likely, the problems were fixed over time, and possibly services kicked back in because when you removed the sim card and then put it back in, you would have likely power-cycled your phone device.

Yes. Good find. That's the second time I recall seeing it work without the /mb for someone.
