I cannot make calls or send texts. I make automatic payments. No payment is due.

@Castle57leroy  Hopefully you have regained service. 

Otherwise, given that you have autopay with a valid card, and paid in full, but have no service, you likely need assistance from the CSAs.

To get a ticket click https://widget.telus.tiia.ai/publicmobile/publicmobile.html and enter your question into SIMon.  Invent prompts until you get to the Contact Us button, click it and a Submit Ticket button should appear. Click it then login and pick the topic, if needed, from the drop down menu. To confirm your ticket has been submitted, check the SENT box in your private messages; click the small envelope beside your avatar at top right on your screen.

@Castle57leroy   is there any error showing on the phone status?  "No SIM", "SIM not provisioned", "No Network"?  Any network status bars?

 

 

You said you cannot make calls and send text, how about incoming calls and texts, can you receive incoming?

 

 

Try to put your PM SIM on another phone and see if it works.

 

And is this a phone you bought from private sell or via carrier?  Try to check if the phone is blacklisted here:

Thank you. I am showing as active. No outages. Rebooted. SIM re inserted. Still no service. Only emergency calls.

As far as I know, there is no renewal date. Public Mobile is showing. I have no one to try the SIM with.

Thank you. I have had service for almost a tear with no problems. This problem just happened yesterday.

When was your last renewal date?

Is Public Mobile showing at the notification bar?

After trying the suggestions and no avail. 

To eliminate the possibly of phone hardware issue, try your PM SIM card in another know working phone from your family member or friend and report result.

More detail will be required to determine what is wrong.


Try rebooting your phone by power off then power the phone back on.


Did you just port over your old number to PM?

If so, did you reply with YES to the text with the old SIM in the phone from your previous carrier that you are porting over? There is a 90 minutes window for you to reply.

@Castle57leroy   Log onto My account and confirm what is the Account Status.  Autopay could fail occasionally and it could be the reason why you have no service.

 

If account status is suspended, then make a manual payment using "Other" option (not Amount Due).  Once payment completed , log out of My Account, and restart your phone and make test calls, it should work

Sign in to your self serve to confirm that the service is displaying as active.

 

If so, check to see if there are any outages on the Telus outage map.

Failing that, try the following:

  • Reboot device
  • Remove the SIM card, then reinsert it
