I have purchased a number from Public mobile shop since december 2019 i didn't get chance to recharge it again, I am trying to enter my number in self-service.publicmobile to recharge online its not accepting the number by saying that its already activated. I tried *611 also they said that mobile network not available. The shop I purchased the number from is closed because of covid-19. Is there any other solution to upgrade my credit without voucher or create a new account Please advise on urgent basis.
Thanks
Madeeha

@Madeeha1234 if that's the case you can speak to a customer support rep and see if they can hold the number for you if that's important. you will still need a new SIM card, I may be mistaken. just ask customer support.

As stated above, you will need to purchase a new SIM card and activate a new line. Your previous number may not be available.
If your nearest store is closed, you could purchase a SIM card online either via PM website or Amazon.ca. It will usually take one week for SIM card to arrive. Mobile shops inside Superstore are still open and they can activate a new plan for you also.

@Madeeha1234 You can get a new Sim at Walmart they are still open and possibly a few other places if you call around most of the Walmart centres will still activate a new plan for you I hope that helps have a great day If you activate using auto pay with a credit card it will be two dollars off per 30 day cycle plus you shouldn’t have to worry about your account being suspended again

@Madeeha1234 Hello it sounds like it’s been more than 90 days since your plan has been suspended if so it is gone you will have to buy a new Sim and activate a new line with a new email

Try calling it, maybe it was reassigned
If you had enough money on the account to starch it until recently then it's possible that is not back in the pool yet
You could try contacting moderators about it maybe they can help

Sorry @Madeeha1234 that plan was closed after 90 days. You have to start over with new SIM and new email adress. Stay safe.
