If there really was a mistake in your name, address, or card details, trying again wouldn't cause any issues.

Unfortunately, Public Mobile's billing system has a bad habbit or reporting a declined transaction even though it went through fine.  if that's what happened, Public Mobile will have charged your credit card multiple times, but because the Public Mobile end erroneously believes that you didn't pay, your service won't start working.

You'll want to check to see if you really were charged.  If you were, you will need to send a message to Moderator_Team to have them manually add the funds to your account, activate your cell phone services, and to refund any duplicated payment charges.

You might need to contact mods but basic trouble shhoing are:

1) make sure your profile and CC info are the same.

2) don't use a unut number

3) leave last digit from posyltal code

4 check that no transactions were processed even if it said they were not.
