I think PM, as part of the Endgame when they get in the groove, perhaps try to offer some Postpaid-like features, NOT the Postpaid grace or credit checks, but perhaps some, like call forwarding when/if roaming comes down the red carpet, if ppl go on extended vacations and need to pay bare min when not using service to minimum possible, to short codes for donations where $$$'s is taken from Account, like Red Cross or something meaningful, little gestures like these may give ppl impression that PM is not the Generic Prepaid that ppl see all the time, but a Prepaid with a dose of vitamin postpaid to strengthen PM's Prepaid bones, these can redefine the meaning of Prepaid, not the ordinary, but extraordinary

Suspect you really need to think that PM's current offerings are very close to their "End Game".  Also hopefully, NEVER any post paid services.

What I meant was, Certain Postpaid elements, BUT converted into Prepaid format, so like a Hybrid Prepaid with Postpaid elements blended into Prepaid, that may offer the new interpretation of Postpaid, BUT under the Prepaid banner

I think you mean something similar to mobilicity's wallet feature.  Customer can top up to carry a prepaid balance in the wallet to pay for roaming.

OK I changed my mind. If a customer has credits or a positive balance in their account from depositing funds, these could work. In effect, a service stops when your account balance reaches $0; Speakout711 works that way. To be worthwhile to Public Mobile expect these services to be veeerrry expensive.

I think @imm1304 is correct, what you really want is some sort of wallet functionality

 

Telus in general seems really anti-call forwarding (on any of their brands, no idea why)

But I would love to see some kind of pay $10 for 1000 minutes US roaming etc
