Is there a current problem with auto-pay? My account says it has expired due to non-payment but I am on auto-pay. I cannot use any of my services. Can you please advise.

@patero   do you have another credit card you can try putting on the file?

 

If not, I think it might be time to open ticket with mod.  I understand you have use the Chatbot earlier and it wasn't good experience.    Please do the following and you can get to Open ticket with mod quicker:

  1. Type: cannot process payment
  2. Click "Credit Card or Visa Debit"
  3. Click "More Tips"
  4. then click "contact Moderator" ,
  5. and then click "Click here to submit a ticket"
  6. you will then direct to another page to open ticket.

** once ticket opened, monitor the Community inbox (envelope icon on top right) , Mod will reply and work with you via messaging there.

 @patero : In the 611 service, you can only make payments from a pre-registered payment card or using vouchers. You need your 4 digit PIN for the payment card. Not for vouchers.

I'm not sure what you mean by circles. You go into the menu choice and enter your PIN and choose an amount and go. But the card has to be successfully registered.

Go into your MY Account

 

What is the status of your account??

 

View transactions......when is next payment due and did it take $ from you?

 

Does your phone work??????

 

Do some preliminary checks first so we can help. 

 

Don't look at a laundry list of things to do when I would be an easy fix!!!

I tried calling the 611 and just get going in a circle sends me back to calling 611.  I am becoming very frustrated as \I have been trying since yesterday working with the 611 and your chatbox.

Dial 611 to get update on your plan status and pay with your on-file credit card. You'll need your PM pin number.

I did what you asked and it still does not process the payment

Re-entered the credit card payment and tried to make a payment and it will still not  process it.

I am a relatively new customer and registered for auto-pay.

 

For the last two months my payment has gone through. 

 

This month it will not process my autopay and has suspended my account.

Suspended or expired?

It is normal to expire of the eve of your next payment. 

Do you have service?

 

I have verified the account that is used for auto pay and it has no problems. 

 

Please advise how this can be rectified.

 

I would suggest that you use the auto-pay hybrid. 

 

While I know I have not answered others will tell you how to get your account active again.

When is your plan renewal date ? Are phone features currently working ?

If plan is set to renew tonight...just ignore the Suspended or Plan Expired message..as long as phone is working right now.

If phone is not working...let us know.

@patero   Unfortunately, Autopay did fail occasionally.  Did you try going to My Account  to manual pay using the account already on file?  If it goes through successfully, click on the Reactivate Current plan and then reboot your phone and all should be good

 

If you are unable to manually pay with the current card on file, you might either want to use Replace current card option to Re-enter the same cc info or enter a new cc and try manually pay again.  

 

Let us know how it turns out

Autopay does fail. Can you choose the Payment tab and make a manual payment for the cost of the plan and then hit the reactivate button if there is one.

That may be useful, but it is hard to tell her as she is in a car travelling today.  I am trying to fix it from home.

Same problem for me today.  I also see the "Please disregard this if you.. are on autopay.." message.  The website is brutally slow right now.  I guess I'll just wait a bit and see what happens.

DougT

I finally got on and put what was owing on her account and all ok again. That was painful, what a waste of time. That portal really needs some more horsepower, it is way too slow to do anything useful.

 

@DougT   611 might be your friend now.. try calling and pay that way

DougT

I am ok, as well as my kids. But my wife's account expired this am. I have been trying for an hour to get onto portal to pay. Of course, she is traveling today.

I got to the payment page... only took like.. 10 minutes of loading... Tried to select amount due but doesn't even tell me what it is about to charge me. Seems like there are some backend issues with the selfserve part of the site

Was able to get to this page... seems like they're trying to do something? Telling me to disregard this message if I'm on auto-pay doesn't really help when I'm without any phone service 😕

My guess is Public Mobile is trying to fix whatever broke down last night/this morning!

"Sometimes autopay pay fails unfortunately.  A few customers this morning had similar issues."

 

Dunkman, you gotta be kidding.

 

*LOTS* of customers are having this issue due to the failure of public mobile to charge credit cards on autopay.

 

Call public mobile to complain. Oh wait, you can't call them. Create a ticket and hope they fix it soon...

I have same problem here, I am also unable to access the self serve website .. seems like it is down? Are any other users unable to access the website?

@NancyJac -

 

So if you cannot use any of your services, this could be an autopay failure or something else; it seems others today are experiencing similar issues.

 

Ensure you have added sufficient funds to your account, and if you still have no service, try going into LOST/STOLEN status.

Just follow these steps:

  1. Log into your Self-Serve account
  2. Go to Plan and Add-Ons > Lost/Stolen Phone
  3. Select Suspend Service

Then reactivate your account, hit "Resume". This is intended to initiate services.

 

I would suggest letting the Moderators know about this, since this seems to be affecting others.

After manually paying to restore services, double check your credit card expiry date.

 

In any case, I would report this to the public mobile moderators as there seems to be an excessive number of cases happening in the last several hours.

 

To contact a moderator, there are 2 methods:

 

  1. Use the ticketing system for a faster response time. Click here and type moderator assistance, then select account-related issue, then select you need a human now.  Follow the prompts to submit a ticket,  or, 
  2. Send a private message to the moderator by clicking here  You’ll need to be logged into your Community account for the link to work.

 

Watch for their response in your Community private mailbox which will be indicated by a number on the small envelope icon to the left of your Community avatar.

@jojo9 , yes, PM occasionally has issue with different users with Autopay.  I don't think the number is too bad.  We aware of this because we follow the Community closely.

 

However, I believe today is a bigger issue.  Look like we have a quiet some users with issue today.

I've read this issue a few times since switching to PM a couple of months ago, it'd be suggested PM do a real fix to this please, thanks.

Yes, look like there is issue today.

 

did you try what suggested by other members above?  Would like to see if that resolves the issue.

Log into your account to check the status.  Try making a manual payment of a $1.  Try rebooting your phone.  If you still need assistance then submit a ticket to a moderator by clicking on the bubble on the bottom right corner.
