If you have done the reboot and SIM re-seat process then check the settings again here https://apn-canada.gishan.net/en/apn/public-mobile

 

 

Changing the phones to narrow it down to specific SIM or device is not a bad idea.

Hi @jtd 

 

The overview page is pretty much immediate usage.

 

BUT, the detail usage (when it comes to DATA USAGE) is delayed.

You will see your usage from today when you check it tomorrow...although it is likely about a 6-12 hour wait until this type of usage is listed under the details.

 

It was likely just used today and you just did not realize it. 😞

 

Install an app to track your ‘live’ usage so you can keep track. Public Mobile are 30 day plans (not monthly).

 

If you are android, try this one:

Data Witness app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/detailsid=com.iwik.datawitnesspm&hl=en_CA&gl=US

I use this one myself and it gives me what I need from it.

 

You could also check out Data counter widget: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.roysolberg.android.datacounter&hl=en_CA&gl=US

 

If you are an Apple user, I am sure there is a 30-day app that is available as well.

 @jtd : On your phone? Or in usage details here? Your term started 30 days before the pay before date up top. It's not monthly.

Look at My Data & Add-Ons in self service. Is there a line of data there. If not it has been used up for this cycle. 250 MB is not very much.

 @jtd : Did you log in to your self-serve account and see if data is mentioned under My Data & Add-ons? Don't believe your phone unless you keep changing your date range on it.

Thanks.

 

I rebooted, airplane on and off, reset network settings and also tried the SIM in another phone, same issue.

If you still have data available on your account (and phone can send/receive sms, calls) you can try standard set of remedies:

- reboot your phone

- reset network settings

- try your SIM in other phone

- change the network to 3G Only

- go for a walk - change location, maybe cell tower is acting up

Does talk and text work? I assume that data has worked before?

A few basic troubleshooting advice:

Reboot phone

Network reset of phone

Toggle airplane mode on, then off.

Have you reset Network settings?

 

If you cannot try the SIM in another phone, at least try to reseat It (turn off phone,take it out, wait for 30' and put it back in). 

 

Also try to switch the phone to 3G
