Can't make or receive calls

Hey,

 

Is there a system wide outage? Or is it just me?

 

I'm on a OnePlus 3T, I couldn't make calls this morning and I wasn't able to receive a call.

 

Whats going on?

The community was all about helping customers with non account related matters.  Some of these work arounds are to address account problems.  As I said we are potentially enabling the survival of long standing issues.  You think this kind of response from customers is a good thing?

@Alvito , it could be a local issue but definitely not a system wide outage.  If the issue is plan related, I would suggest going the official route and have the moderator team look into the matter.  I used to think it's great to do work arounds like lost phone, add a buck.  These strategies if they work is an enabler for Public Mobile to ignore issues. By reporting it officially, it makes it harder for them to ignore problems than if they don't even see it.  Outcome may be identical, but at least they are made aware.

1. Login to your self-serve account.
2. Report your phone lost/stolen using [Plan and Add-Ons] --> [Lost/Stolen Phone]
3. Logoff
4. Wait 5 minutes and login again
5. Report your phone found.
6. Re-start you phone to provision your account again. i.e. enable all features of you plan again.

If this trick failed to get thing working again, you should send a private message to moderator for help. But the wait is up to 48 hours. Good luck.

If you ran out of minutes you can buy an addon for $5 for 500 minutes. this is the best price for minimum plans.
