I unfortunately was not able to put time on my phone in May & June 2019 but I did put $22.00 today July 7th/19 I picked the plan I typically get and still have $13.00 in my account but I can not get Public mobile to work at all. Your help with this matter would be greatly appreciated. I'm sure it's something very simple. Lol. Oh you are speaking with Carrie.
Solved! Go to Solution.

I have merged a few of these threads together as they appear to be about the same issue.

@Dahlia Why did you activate a new sim card? If you had issues with your previous PM sim card you could have used selfserve to change sim cards without losing your funds.
Best to contact PM directly and explain in detail what happened and they will advise you on what can or cannot be done.

@DahliaWell that's a hard question to answer since everyone's computer is likely to be different. I suggest consulting your own documentation on how to enable safe mode. eg here is Firefox's documentation.
As an alternative, if DIY on your own computer prove to be too difficult, you can always go to one of Public Mobile Booths or any of their resellers. They can help you activate. Just double check to make sure things like email address and passwords are entered correctly.

Okay and how do I do that.

@DahliaMake sure you are using a refreshly restarted, up to date web browser that has javascript enabled and no privacy or ad block add ons. As Public Mobile's website runs validating scripts to your entries. If you don't let them run the scripts, they won't accept your values. Since you mentioned you have trouble with both fields, I suspect that's whats happening.

Sorry for not replying or maybe I did already. I am new to all of this & experiencing some difficulty navigating the site. I tried everything suggested but yesterday I bought a new SIM CARD and it will NOT accept any password's or PIN number's I choose. So I've just posted that question & hopefully I can get it to work when I read some of the answers here. I do appreciate all of the help from the community.

I purchased a new SIM CARD yesterday & the activation was going fine BUT it will not accept any PASSWORD'S OR PIN NUMBERS that I choose. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you

@Dahlia Power off your phone, remove your sim and then re-insert it and restart your phone.
If all the suggestions haven't worked then you need to send a message to Moderator_Team.

In your self service account, is your account status active or suspended?

Do you have a button to reactivate the service?
07-07-2019 06:52 PM
Yes I did but it didn't work for me but thank you.

Try rebooting your phone and see if that helps.

When you log into your self serve account is it active?
Try the lost phone trick. To report your phone stolen. Login to your account. Choose Plans and Add-ons tab. Then choose Lost/Stolen Phone tab. The choose Suspend Service tab. Logout. Wait few minutes. Login in and report your phone found. Also try adding a payment of a $1. If you still have problems tthen contact a moderator by messaging them.
