Hi,
My wife and I have Public Mobile accounts; I can log in to mine, but forgot her email and password. When we try to chat with SIMON, he's useless. He tells us to open a ticket, but when we try, it asks to sign in to the account...which we don't know the password/username for.
When we attempt to create a new account, it says one already exists for that number...but again don't remember the email or password. I've already tried the 4 emails I use, but neither are working...only mine.
Could someone on here help please? Looking to add a texting service for her, but customer service is non existent.
Thanks.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Keep an eye on the Community inbox , PM Support will reply there.
When opening a ticket, SIMon always asks for the Community username.
When prompted for the Self Serve login, an option is provided to authenticate using other means. Either way, as above selecting options for a forgotten password would skip the Self Serve password prompt, regardless.

Use YOUR OWN Community Account to start a ticket and provide your wife's phone number and explain the situation. They may need your wife to confirm some info, but they should be able to help you via your own account. That's how I did it when having issues with my wife's account.

Or tag the post. What plan is your wife on? The $10 50/50 plan? There are no texting add ons at pm. Enable mobile data. And send MMS texts instead.....shhh!!😉 They dont use data per se but the phone needs to be able to connect to the separate server that handles MMS service.

I sent a PM to the CSA agent. Hope that helps.
Thanks.
Use this link below - all you need to do is sign into your Community account, which you're already signed in to by using the community forum:
Is this one time use only? should I bookmark it?

Try another device, or a tab in incognito mode, then use the Forgot your password option (edit...trying different emails it could be).
SIMon Bot is asking you for your Community account log in information.
You can also use this message to:
Private Message to Public Mobile Customer Support Agents (CSA)

@Lakhvinderb did you try forgot password? did you try enter the email address that you might have used? you can try as many times as you wan.
if you can't reset it that way, you will have to open ticket with PM Support: , click on the Bubble on the lower right or directly at : https://publicmobile.ca/chatbot.
Follow these these to get to ticket open page quicker:
After ticket is submitted, make sure to check your Community Inbox(top right corner envelope icon) periodically for response from PM's CS Agent
