Hi there I upgraded my plan from 3G to 5G and for some reason my data isn't working and I top up my funds on my account. I could only use wifi right now. Do I need a new 5G sim card or is my old 3G compatible?

@BilltyLam - At times usually after changing a plan no APN changes don't need to be made but just to make sure @Rick21 that these APN settings are correct:

Also what phone are you using, PM requires iPhone 8, 8+, and X and newer for MMS capabilities. If on android you can easily change the APN settings by the link above.

Really, Did I miss something? how you know his cell phone model and no need to change APN? I mean nothing, just curious.🤔

@BilltyLam - APN change is only needed for MMS on some models, this is Data that he is having issues with. 😉

Did you check not your phone issue? I know some model is needed manually to change the APN.

There is no 800 to call @Rick21 To reach a customer service agent, please use the chat bot bottom right corner of the page. Did you try doing what I suggested?

@Rick21 - If you have a random burner (Not being used) phone with a SIM card slot try use that. It will force a SIM provision therefore it may solve the issue.
Do you have Cellular Data on? A data block on Android? Try disabling the data blocker if you have one enabled.

Still not working is there a 1 800 number that public mobile has?

I checked every possible thing on this phone not sure why its not working. they say you don't need to switch out the sim card...really frustrating

Hey @Rick21
If you just changed over, I would recommend restarting your phone. If that doesn't work, go into your network settings, reset your network settings and reboot. That should fix it. If it doesn't, then while in network settings, choose Public Mobile then reboot.

Did you try shutting off your phone for 5 minutes and turning it back on and also shutting your data off before shutting off phone and turn data back on after

No, you don't need a new SIM card @Rick21
Try rebooting your device and resetting network connections first.
Also, do all other services work, calling and texting.
