Yeah in the end it won't benefit you, but it might be taking away from the user who actually answered it.

@Daphne , I've changed the solution for you.  I realize that the self-solution may have been an accident, but generally, members shouldn't be giving a solution to one's self.

@Daphne Here's a bit of free advice as posted by Public Mobile.

If someone is able to deliver a great solution to your problem, mark their response as an “Accepted Solution” to appreciate the efforts of your helper.

If you already selected a solution in error, you can change it as follows:
1. Go to the posted solution. Click on the 3 dots at upper right corner. Select "Not the solution"
2. You can now reselect another post as the solution.

I agree, but to be fair the system lets you do it and there's no rule about it, that's Public Mobile's fault. It wouldn't take very long to implement a fix to prevent this from happening.


@Ed404 sometimes self solutions are acceptable.  Depending on replies to the thread and if the content of the self solution is unique and answers the question.   Thus banning the option I do t think is warranted, plus who knows if it is in fact an option in the lithium software.

 

Since I have a reply in this thread o am leaving it to the op or another Oracle to assign the solution.

@Daphne...glad you got your question answered and I see you've provided yourself with the "SOLUTION". I'd think you'd want to award the solution to whomever you thought gave you complete guidance to your question. I'm sure it would make that person happy.

That 400 minutes of international calling only works while you're in Canada.

You'd need the 10 Day US talk/text/data add-on for use in US.

@Daphne  no you can not. You need a USA add-on to use phone in USA.
