Customers cannot call this number to speak to anyone. Calling that number will only connect customers to an automated system. Public Mobile customers do not have the option to speak to customer service over the phone.

@panamacmillan Public is more of a self serve hence the lower prices also you have the community to help you and the moderator team for account issues do you need any help

I hope there is never a way to call someone. As cheap as possible is the whole point of going with PM and I'm quite happy to sacrifice a call center to save some money. My past experience has been that a call center is no more helpful than the system in place now.

The day there is a call center in place is the day I switch. It will increase rates and that means I'll be paying for someone else to have another useless service.

Yes, those services and the community are great for many issues, except when only a moderator can resolve your problem.  If your service is interrupted or you can't access your account and require moderators help to reset login/password reset etc., the delays in having to wait for a moderator to respond can get frustrating.  Especially, if the wait starts to get into days. 

So I'm also hoping that the new online ticketing being worked on will speed up both the response and resolution stages of PM's support system. Fingers crossed:)

This is just how PM operates now. A lot of issues can be sorted out through this community, or the moderators have to be contacted via messages. However, they are moving towards an online report system at some point so hopefully it'll be better.

Yeah the online ticketing system should be nice.

The only reason is to make cost lower. No other reason.

It is true they dont want to contact you via phone, only from this forum.  It is the only method.

If you're running into an account issue that the community can't deal with you might want to contact the @CS_Agent 

[mimmo]

What's your issue?

Where did you sign up? Did not anyone tell you Public Mobile doesn't Provide call centre services

[Luddite]

That's the deal at Public Mobile. This lovely Community is here to assist you. If we fail you must contact the Moderator Team via the private messaging system here: https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/notes/composepage/note-to-user-id/22437 to send a private message to the moderator team with a description of your issue. Sometimes they answer within in 24 hours, but usually take several days.

What is your difficulty?
