Called pc mobile
Said the 28gb is a bonus so we won’t see them on «contract» ok fine
Says that if when I’m in call I change from 5g to 3G that’s because as she says I’m in the woods so probably the towers don’t offer 5g speed where I’m at, which is false as I’m not in the woods and on their converge map my house is in the 5g zone
And she says that since my iPhone is 5g auto volte is active over wise I wouldn’t get calls working
Kinda calling this bullsh*t a bit but I’ll see in 2-3 days if it changes

I can see a breakdown of the data but no summary.
same issue here - it's a problem on the PC Mobile side. best solution is to just update your billing cycle on your data settings and track your data usage through your phone instead of relying on their app

Just ported my number from Fizz to PCMobile.
The calls work fine, but the data is terrible. I know samsung phone isnt support for 5g. But it says 4g lte should still be around 150mbps. I am getting 1 or 2mbps. With fizz I was getting around 120 and fido similar speed. Is there I am doing wrong?
Samsung zflip 5 fyi.
Thanks

Called PC mobile for #3 as I got charged 10$ today since my account had 1$ in it
Changed from auto top up to just top up, she told me I will still ge the 10% back in points and it will auto get 30$ each month for my plan
Changed the amount to 20$ for 1 month as since they already took 10$ I need 20$ for the 30$ and then in 2 month ill put it back at 30$
That way I don't get charged 10$ since my account has less then 2$ in it

It's bell signal... So if you have bad bell coverage then you'll get bad speed...

I just get stuck at the loading screen "PC mobile prepaid SIM needed". I tried uninstalling/re-installing, rebooting the phone, disabling/re-enabling wifi, disabling/re-enabling cellular, only on cellular....
the SIM card works though. I can get data and make calls. I can also use that SIM card and put it in an android device and another iPhone and the app recognizes it no problem.
Doesn't work with iphone 14 pro max
works with a iphone se 2022

3GB bonus for six months. That's one of the most unappealing promotions I've ever seen. Who cares, frankly?

Hi there, quick question.
Any different you got the plan in store with sales or buy the sim and activate?

Thanks in advance.
Simple is the best.

Most in store staff are willing to waive the $10 sim card fee, but that's about it.

I'm looking for a place after PM. This looks great as I use PC optimum card. 10% back leaves $18 on $20 plan. 1 gig for auto payment. $3 more than PM $15 plan.. But unlimited call. 1 gig 4 g data. And get to stick it to PM. Satisfaction. Right now every time I hear that ring on the PM plan I'm reminded to pick up the soap and assume the position. Public Mobile calling.

I got the overall data status to work on the pc mobile app on an iphone SE2. I guess for apple devices, they just haven’t updated their bugs for newer versions of IOS.

Update on the 20,000 optimum points offer. We registered our optimum points card at The Mobile Shop when we signed up, but it still sent us a a text during the start of our second month requiring us to re-register the number. Not sure how the 1000 points / month is going to work out.
