I see that PM found the sweetspot for middle data users. But, there are many others who just need enough data for some occasion like transiting or going on a local trip. It even comes in handy when there is a problem with Wi-Fi. I am sure having as little as 1GB was the option that suited many. I see that PM is targeting user for that awesome $120 plan, but it will not be the choice for many other who don't need that 6GB or 3GB data. I don't see this hurting when you will be targeting light and medium data users. For light data users, they got no choice. There is a big difference between 1GB @ $90 and 3GB @ $111. I do not see the point to just ignore light data users. That 3GB options should not be offered because there is only $9 difference to get extra 3GB so who wouldn't? 

 

So, i think PM should bring back that $90 / 1GB plan because getting on the plan without data and than adding $30 add-on would be too much. 

 

Thanks.

I've ordered SIM cards for me and my wife due to 90 day/ 1GB plan. When SIM cards came you removed this plan.

I don't want to be your subscriber anymore due to this.

Please return me my money for SIM cards or bring back 90 day/ 1GB plan.

 

With respect,

frustrated subscriber

@cucliura Sorry to hear that.

 

There are new plans offered with much better value. But if you don't want any other plan, i suggest you to make a separate post in a different section to get better help with refund on sim cards.

@cucliura how would that even happen? Unless you (literally) ordered SIM cards a day before plan changes this would be a non issue. And why wait a month to even register on boards and post about it?

Not for us?  Are you serious?  The old plan is not for us???

The truth is that they removed the Canada TXT options because users from Apple dont receive sms from Cupertino, so we pay the price for the worst ota update system in the world, poor android users....

"We want your feedback. Tell us what works, what doesn’t, and what you’d like to see." Here you have it, one of the most bravoed posts in the entire lab. People want the 90 day 1 GB plan back but it's "not for us?" Hmmmmm.

"... The main reason why we are maintaining our decision to remove the plan is so that we can continue to offer the lower rates for our new plans ... One of the trade-offs we had to make in order to deliver this was removing the 90 day/ 1GB plan ..." Public Mobile is a business. Bravos are all good, but Dollars are worth more to a business. They've scaled up because the new plan structure better reflects the revenue stream they expect, from customers today and customers tomorrow and customers they want to attract over coming months and years - and yes you get more and yes it costs more and yes it might end up being more than you need/want to pay for. But (unless you want to contract a new phone) the new PM plans are still much better than anything the competition offers - I've looked at *all* the offerings and found only one or two carriers with cheaper plans, and all sorts of tradeoffs I personally find unacceptable (like unreliable "fringe" coverage where I live and work, or limited minutes and messages).

I have a fix budget for a house.

 

Then my agent tries to convince me to buy a house three times the size because the price per square feet is cheaper.

 

Actually, I'm in the market for 3 houses...

Hi,  I was also planning to move to $90/90 day plan but now its changed.  It was good plan . We can get $40 plan from other carriers also. The only reason to stay with Public was lower rates.

 

I demand to bring back $90/90 day as soon as possible.

 

thanks

@zakhan78 ???

If other carrier is $40 per month then Public is still cheaper + you have more data now

 

$111 today (instead of $90) and you get addition of Global Txt + 3GB data

Other carrier would be $120 ($40 x 3)
