iPhone not "officially" supported by Public Mobile!

[Poogzley]

I just noticed that Public Mobile does not officially support the iPhone

Sources: https://www.apple.com/ca/iphone/LTE/ and https://support.apple.com/en-ca/HT204039#usa

I am just wondering why Public Mobile is not listed it seems like all the other providers and MVNO's are listed. Is it a complicated process to be added? @Alan_K why has this not been done yet? What are some of the roadblock that are standing in the way of official support by Apple?

@PoogzleyI think the page you are referring to has to do with financing the iPhone at Apple Store more than the technical specifications of carriers supporting the iPhone. All the carriers listed, you can walk into an Apple Store get get a post paid contract with any of the companies and walk out with an iPhone. It is especially important for people who wants the latest and greatest next week. Obviously Chatr, Lucky, Public Mobile etc etc can't.

@GinYVR not quite true Fizz is a perpaid service that requires you to bring your own unlocked device. As a result they do not offer financing of any kind.

You should be confused. The original post is not helpful. iPhone's work fine here.

It does say other carriers support iPhone.  I wonder if it just a mistake since Koodo and Telus are both listed.  Does it have something with full LTE plans?

Why are you questioning whether an external reference is official? iPhone's work perfectly fine here.

@Poogzley I don't see Lucky or Chatr in that list. This does not mean these carriers are not supported. It could be as simple as they decided to not list 3rd tier carriers. As long as Telus/Koodo is in the list, PM will work on iPhones.
