Jackhyf63, customers are not supposed to send name, account number, phone number, or account PIN any more.  Public mobile does not want customers to do that, but rather to use a different account verication technique that usually involves entering the self-serve login information.


I still use account number and PIN code because the use of email alias breaks the verification system.

When you make a local call, you need dial 1 first and then area code, phone number even if the other end is in your same area!

Is this for any number? Or just 1 or 2?

If 1 then is the area code and prefix a known existing one or is it a pretty new one?

Have you tried putting a 1 in front of the 10 digits?

Are you near a border?
