My $15 plan notified me that I had only 10 min. left so I changed my plan to the $25 one. When I went to use it, my phone said I could not make a local call because I did not have a long distance add on.....WTF?
@tommygun1208 is it possible your plan didn't change check in your self serve
@tommygun1208 restart your phone. And try dialing the number with a 1 in front of it. Welcome to the community. Stay safe. Stay off of the fudge.
@tommygun1208 goto your self serve and check if you have "available funds" if you do, that means you still have to choose the plan and apply it.

You must choose between Change plan now or Change at my next renewal.
If you chose the first one, it should take effect...immediately.

You also have the option of just a calling add-on 500 minutes of Canada wide calling for $5. Any unused add-on minuted left at renewal will roll over until you use them up. Good augment for your $15 plan.

I would have to agree with @hairbag1 here that you could have just purchased the 500 mins add-on to tide you over until your renewal cycle, unless you do more that 600+ mins of outgoing calls per cycle.

@tommygun1208 anytime you face a situation like that sometimes it is good to come to the community and ask, "Hey I ran out of minutes whats my best option." It's a good idea to lean on the community some people may have some advice that we haven't thought to or a cheaper way to get a SIM card or extra minutes etc.
Stay safe brother!
I agree. To be honest I did not even remember that the regular price for 1GB add on was $30 ir even that it was half off. I really only found that out here that the add on was on sale. Also with the previous thread that I think is now in the Lounger about having 20% off vouchers and $5 sim cards that they dont have anymore at Canadian Celluar supplier.
