Hi Everyone! What do you pay per month on your PM plan?
Please include plan type and cost per month.

in a pinch. Otherwise it will just sit in the account. It is free....why not?
Gonna call out someone on typos...your writing kinda has to be perfect in the post doing so. Kinda hard to see the bolded things but there are 8 things. And I ain't no grammar police, doctorate of English.

First take note PM plans are not monthly there 30 days. The payment due date will change as there are 31 days in some months and then you have February.
As for your question. When you put a $5 add-on for 500 minutes you do not have to renew it each 30 days. The 500 minutes stay on the account and will continue to rollover every 30 days until all used up. Even if it takes years.
Happy Holidays!

Unfortunately I activated before the second month free promotion because I wanted to get it set up before I give him the phone. I added the canada and international minutes only, as he only has a flip phone and doesn't use data anyway. A question about the add on. Do I need to keep adding the $5 Canada minutes plan month to month? Thanks for helping welcome my dad.

Thats a great gift for Christmas! Did you activate with the current second month free promo? Did you use a referral code for the bonus $10 credit? It was smart thinking to purchase the $5/500 min calling add on for a little insurance but its a one time payment as the add on stays on the account rolling over each month until its completely used. Have you also loaded the free gifts from pm for the "more the merrier" campaign? The 2gb data add on and 500 international calling min add on will both remain on the account as well. Once the $5/500min add on is used up the international one will be used for canada wide calling after the plan minutes are used. If you wish to save them then be sure to repurchase the $5/500 min add on again once its depleted. Welcome your dad to public mobile!

I just activated this and got the service for my elderly father as a Christmas gift. I got him the $15 per month plan with the unlimited incoming calls and 100 minutes plus texts and 500 minutes of Canada wide minutes for 5 dollars per month so $20 dollars per month plus taxes and the $2 credit for autopay which makes it $18 and hopefully more credits by participating in the PM community to help my dad keep his phone bill low.

Edit: $2+$8=$10 pretty sure I wont lose myself as a referral!
I sense you have left a lot on the table in the referral category. 😉

Permanently? Nothing last forever.

$25 plan I pay $21 if without community rewards.
12-19-2020 05:26 AM
Of active referrals.....
$10 plan.....$1 loyalty, $2 autopay,$3 referrals,$10 community =$16
$15 plan.....$1 loyalty, $2 autopay, $8 referrals, $1 community =$12
They change monthly with referrals and my second account doesnt normally get a community reward. Ive earned enough credit on both to cover the difference bertween rewards and plan amount until full loyalty kicks in to cover the current plans completely. Switched to pm August 8th 2019 and September 5th 2019. Account #1 been free since October 2019 and Account #2 since August 2020.

Mind if I ask if that is from referrals or mainly community bonus?

I'm on the $25 plan and pay $21 or $22 a month, depending on my Community reward.

what are some tips to get to $0?
I don't think I got enough friends that want to switch lol
12-14-2020 08:31 PM
$45/6.5gb = $0 at the moment
12-14-2020 06:32 PM
I'm on the $40 for about $37/month.
12-14-2020 05:12 PM
I have 3 $10 plans used for calls/text
Paying $5, $5, $7
Our data is with bell using dual SIMs, so in reality, i pay $5 to PM, $5 to bell on two phones.
