I'm at my wits end with this disaster of a company. I've been with Public for one year. I think the brainwave who set my account up in the store didn't use my email or just assigned my ph number to the account, because for one year i pay my bill automatically but can't get in the app or website.
The 'get help' is a nightmare if you can't login. There is no recourse to submit a ticket, there is no way to speak to a person, there is no way to LOG IN. The chat bot just loops you back. Its made to make you break, which I'm at that point.
I was able to now register a new eversafe account so i can at least get in here and post in the desperate act in hopes a moderator will private message and save me. I love automation, but this is a full fail by Public Mobile. Please if any actual staff HUMAN works at Public Mobile, message me.
Solved! Go to Solution.

@hairbag1 was excellent help, and if he/she didn't explain clearly how to do this I may still be going crazy.
@computergeek541 I appreciate you cleaning up my tags, I was desperate.

Please do not prompt other customers for account information in the message forums. Experience has shown that too often, members will mistakenly reply in the message forum with that information.

Honestly it’s like their IT is run by Joe from Accounting off the side of his desk. So many dead links and error loops

I am having the same issue. Was out of country when signed up with Public Mobile so I can keep my phone number, cancelled with previous provider and had my number transferred. Back in Canada, got a PM SIM card and can’t activate/connect to it because I can’t log into my account now without having a verification code sent to my phone number! I verify my identity first with a code sent to my email and then it asks again to verify identity with text or voice mail which I obviously can’t access without setting up the SIM! so confusing and frustrating.

Cancelling ?..how come ? You've had a good year to test-drive Public Mobile. Once the email issue is squared away, you should have no further problems self-accessing your account. You can always come here to the Community Forum to pose questions or even help someone through similar issues you might be having today. Heck...you might even get a few reward points by helping or coaching others. Give some thought into sticking around.

Gotcha. Well you should message Customer Support and let them know that. They should be able to update your correct email address. (Make sure to write all email and passwords down...for future ref)

Hello all, is there a way or a member i can @ to get #support on this? The chat bot is comically bad in that you actually can't do anything unless signed in, which I can't do!

? I tagged My Account. Because I can't get IN TO MY ACCOUNT. I have reset the password. I have been going in hours of circles dealing with this, but I'm at my end. I'm putting a stop payment on my account that may get someone to finally contact me instead of SIMon the worlds worst chat bot
