Hello CS agent

i submitted a ticket, but could not provide any description.

I cannot process any phone calls with my 2 public Mobil accounts. They have both different name/ emails etc. So completely separate.  I did restart my cell phones multiple times. I wanted to send a message to CS_agent but the email doesn’t find the user.

can someone contact me please asap.

thank you

I'm located in the interior of BC and have full service. I do see outages reported at the coast as well as network upsets in parts of northern Alberta.

Hello this morning my son and I (who use public mobile) cannot make calls out. Calls can come in but we cannot call out. We have restarted our cells to no success. Is there an outage somewhere or what is the issue?

thanks Spleenless

Hi @Spleenless, 

Yes, it appears as though there is an outage in the western region of Canada. I'm hoping it doesn't last too long for you and that the service resumes for PM clients who are affected!

@claland @Kyle16 there seems to be an outage affecting western Canada. It seemed to be AB and BC but could also be in your region as well. Hang tight and hopefully they'll have this resolved soon

[Kyle16]

Having the same issue in Sask!

[Kyle16]

Can confirm that in addition to BC and Alberta, I'm having similar issues in Saskatchewan.

[clal]

Saskatchewan too. I can text, but no calling or receiving calls. 

[Kyle16]

I'm also in Regina and having the same problem. Looking at other posts in here, it looks like there are problems all across western Canada. Hope it gets fixed soon!

[clal]

I can not call out or receive calls. 

[slusagm]

is that a new account?  or existing account just doesn't have service today?

if existing account and you are in the West (BC/AB), there is a current a problem with voice calls

if new account, check if data works

[MaeMae]

My phone can not make or receive calls
