I have a similar problem... I set up an automatic plan change to switch to the new $15 30 day plan. On April 30, the plan changed and I was charged $3 to my credit card, with the other $12 paid for by rewards/promos. I have paid everything I need to pay by April 30. But on April 30, my plan was "suspended" for some reason and the problem continues today. I have no service, no data, and cannot receive texts. I really hope Public Mobile fixes this ASAP because I need the texts for 2FA login on some websites.

But then should auto pay not kick in? My autopay failed and then when I tried to manually that failed too. I don't think this will fix the issue, but worth a shot. 

@JessyF, your account is waiting for $9 to be paid.  I don't know how i missed it earlier.

 

Make the $9 payment, and it should start working.

@JessyF  From my experience when the Plan Due date is different then the AutoPay Due date and there is an Amount Due ($9.00 in your case) then it would be best to make a onetime payment before the renewal date to avoid situations like this in the future. If your Amount Due: was 0 then more than likely it would not be a problem the and dates would have synced up after the renewal.

 

Always make sure that the Plan Due date is the same as the AutoPay due date.

Too late. I tried erasing my credit card info and putting the same credit card info back in, but now the system is refusing to accept it the credit card ino.

I am in the same boat. There are hundreds of complaints of this nature all over the community pages and no one is getting any answers!

Seems like you do not have enough balance in account, i know you register the auto pay. But the auto pay not working well sometimes, so you can manual load your money before auto pay date/renew day. Now you can send private message to MOD, but meantime, you can load the money manually, to see if can get back your phone service. 

Hi @JessyF, did AutoPay take your funds and add it to your Available balance?  Has the balance been processed yet?  

 

If your account has a big orange/red box, what does it say?  Is today your payment date or renewal date?

Early in the morning on renewal day, the account goes through a weird transformation including suspension.  This is normal.  It looks like the process is taking longer to complete.  The key takeaway is to ignore what is happening in the account unless the service has actually been affected.  Just let the system do it's weird and wonderful transformation.

This happened to me as well yesterday- the renewal date of my plan. However it happened at 8:00 AM in the morning. It says on your profile page that re-new before 11:59 PM or account will be suspended. My phone still worked during all of this. I had sufficient funds in my account to cover the re-newal and I have autopay set up. I private messaged the moderator group but I received no reply. Around 4 hours after I noticed this, everything re-set, my payment was deducted from my balance and all the accounting was updated in my profile. I guess the notice at the top of my profile page to "Ignore this notice if you have sufficient funds or have autopay set up" is the best advice but it's unsettling to look at my account and see a bold red notice saying "Account Cancelled". I think there's a glitch in the Publc Mobile accounting software. I really should have gotten no cancellation notice. Maybe just a notice that my account  had processed my payment.
