Plan not working

[wnicholson]

I have a $25 plan that includes:

500mb data 

Unlimited canada wide talk

unlimited text

plus an add on

200 min US and Canada Long Distance

400 min intl long Distance.

I just tried to make a call to the US from ON and was told that I no longer have US minutes. I went to usage and added all US phone calls and found that it doesn't add up to 200 minutes (around a 100 if that). I call my son in BC often. Can this be the problem?

Do you see your plan in the plan area? Sometimes the site gets in a mood. Apparently there was a period of time this morning that it wasn't working. so have another look. Maybe also clear cache/site cookies or a different browser or incognito/privacy mode.

No @wnicholson calling your son in B.C. shouldn't use your long distance minutes, especially if you are on the unlimited Canada wide talk plan. Minutes are rounded up to the nearest minute ie 1.09 seconds is counted as 2 minutes.  Do you still have your 400 minute international add on? If you do, you should be able to call the US. Could you try manually dialing the number? Thanks. Stay safe

@wnicholson did you round every minute up to the next min? 

Even if you use 1 second over it will round up to the next minute.

@wnicholson Hello if you go into your self serve under data and add-ons do you see any US minutes if not they are all used up

[JoyLuck]

@wnicholson 

Did you know that seconds are rounded up to the closest minute. (eg. A 1.5 minute call is rounded up to 2 minutes.)

@wnicholson  Calling your son in BC is not a problem since your plan includes unlimited Canada wide calling.

Access your selfserve or dial *611 to get your add-on usage stats. If the add-on counter does not appear on the selfserve landing page then those minutes are used up.

If you have add-on minutes remaining in your account then try dialing the number directly (not from contacts) to make sure the number you are dialing is correct.
