i received a phone message today,
It says i will get 5gb data if i will write YES and send back. I got this message from 5179.
Is it right message?
08-21-2020 06:15 PM
I got this one too. I'm on the $10 plan and the message came from 5179
08-21-2020 06:15 PM
I see - that makes sense. Thanks.
08-21-2020 06:11 PM
I just got the text. 1gb and 1000mins text one two of four lines so far. I have the $15 plans
08-21-2020 06:11 PM
Just 5 minutes ago received this 1000 min / 1Gb offer on our two accounts. Both are $15 plans. Interestingly it was very close if not the same day in August last year that all existing customers received a 1 Gb data gift.

@PMDad $10 and $15 plans get 1GB/1000mins offer. Higher plans get 5GB offer. All in BC and AB.

Hmm, I noticed that others are receiving the 5Gb of add-on data promo, however, I only received a 1GB offer - despite the fact that our family has 4 accounts with PM.
What gives?
08-21-2020 06:07 PM
One $10 plan done. 1GB 1000 minutes.
Waiting on the other.
Thank you Public Mobile.

Cheaper plans ($10/$15) get offered 1000 minutes and 1 GB. More expensive plans get offered 5 GB data. Sweet deal!

I received a similar one as well a hour ago and I have a $10 plan. But my offer is 1GB data and 1000 Canada wide minutes. Thanks PM.
BTW, PM is using short code 5179 to offer migration deal to PM subscribers to switch to Koodo. $50 7GB full LTE data + $0 phone on tab S to tab XL.
Last week, I also received email offer (Win Back) to the email addresses from my old canceled accounts.

My wife and I got similar messages except our offers were for 1 GB data and 1000 Canada wide minutes.

Yes, that is the case.
08-21-2020 05:52 PM
I am pretty sure this is targeted to BC and Alberta residence because PM and Telus are losing customers to a large cable/internet company's new mobile service. $0 a month is a pretty good deal. Will a one-time 5 GB bonus keep many people away from that?
08-21-2020 05:46 PM
I haven’t got that text on any of my four lines with Public Mobile. Wonder if you need to be on a plan larger than the $15 plan my phones are on.
08-21-2020 05:43 PM
Thanks. I will give that try.
08-21-2020 05:34 PM
08-21-2020 05:33 PM
@ShawnC13 I never get targeted in a "good" way lol.

It is targeted so it could depend what plan you are on and what offer you get

I presume it is legit, all 3 lines in the family received the same text message.
After responding YES, another text was received with the response:
"Good Choice! Confirming you have opted in for your bonus one-time add-on. You'll get a confirmation SMS when it's on your account. See in Self-Serve by 31-Aug-20"
Sound legit.

$40 plan , got the message too. Signed up with PM 11Aug2020
