Why am I charged an extra fee?

[DD6]

I have a $40 plan, and with my $2 discount and taxes, by monthly bill is $42.94.  However, for the past two months I have had an additional charge of $9.04 charged to my credit card.  What is that charge for?

@DD6 Do you mean there are two charges from Public Mobile - $42.94 and $9.04? OR is there just one charge of $51.98? That could be a $50 plan less $2 autopay less $2 referrals net $46 plus tax = $51.98.

Login to your account and double check your plan details.

I think that's a stretch. He said "my $2 discount". I didn't get that he was saying what the difference is and so has a new total. He also didn't say anything about referrals.

He says "additional charge" and goes on saying "that" charge. Seems to me he sees a single charge of $9.04 on his credit card (each month).

A cancelled plan could have been $10 and then the continuing autopay bug after cancellation but he said they were also $40 plans. Maybe someone changed plans on one of those accounts to the $10 before cancelling.

Saying he has no add-ons...he still needs mod assistance of course. 🙂

@Luddite, this looks likely from what was originally explained. @DD6, if you haven't logged in to your self-serve in the past few months and PM has just started charging you $51.98, it's likely that there was some sort of error made on their part. As already mentioned, check your self-serve and see what  plan is listed on the main page, and get in touch with the moderators to resolve the error.

@Luddite, good catch on that.  I didn't not read it that way at all.

No additional charge for AutoPay, as it's a $2 deduction at the time of renewal.

Can you look at your payment history?  If you could, make a screenshot, and hide all personal data, and attach it to this thread.  we should be able to see if it's on your account.

Were the other accounts on the $10 plan with autopay set up? That would be $8.

No there's no charge for being on autopay. It goes the other way 🙂

Edit: Sorry. You said they were on $40 plans. The other already answered.

@DD6 No extra charge for just setting up Auto pay

infact you will receive $2 credit every month to set up autp pay

The other two family members in my group cancelled their accounts back in December since they got new phones with Bell.  They also had $40 plans.  None of us had long distance, but I don't know if either of them had US roaming - I don't.  There are no add-ons for my plan.  Is it possible I am being charged something from their closed accounts?    We were setup so that our payments all came from the same credit card.

[stonechucker]

@DD6, this is the $40 - $2 = $38.

Then you pay 13% taxes (Are you in Ontario??)  38 + 13% = $42.94

EDIT: Sorry, didn't read the full original post.  Sounds like an added $8 add-on.

@DD6 Could you please open My Account PM page & double check this info :

Autopay Rewards $2 Credit ?

Any Long distance or Data or any other kind of Add-on you had purchased ?

[WittyUsername]

Do you have any add-ons (such as long distance minutes, US talk or US text)?

Did you buy any add-ons? That equals exactly $8 in your province. There is a long distance add-on and a US roaming add-on both for $8.

can you post a screenshot of your overview and payment history pages, redact any personal information.

do you possibly have a second account with pm?

[Sharry19]

@DD6 Did you for sure successfully set up the Autopay ? I mean if you to your PM page could you be able to see in my Rewars $2 Credit for Autopay or not ?
