Public Mobile Canada

Public Mobile launched in 2010 as an independent mobile self-service company. In 2013, Public Mobile Canada was officially acquired by Telus. This merger allowed them to offer service on one of Canada’s largest networks, with some of the lowest prices. Public Mobility plans are meant to be affordable and simple to acquire, with no necessary contracts or commitments. Public SIM cards cost $10, and their monthly plans range from $15 to $70 a month. There is a current Public Mobile promotion that grants users with 2GB of additional monthly data for free. Make sure to check our Public Mobile page regularly to make sure you never miss an exclusive offer. Overall, Public Mobile is widely appealing due to its plans’ low prices on such a powerful network.

new website is awful

The old one was bad but the new one through Telus is absolutely horrible. I don't want to use a chatbot service to pay my bill. There seems to be no other option.
New website/app is so slow....even slower than the old website.
Phone service is good and price is good.
However, I'm totally willing to leave just from the new interface.

Unbeatable value for money

Mobile public to a very good network (that of Telus). I am really very satisfied, it offers a discount points system that allows us to lower our package. Use my friend code XL6525 to save $10 during your 2nd month of payment. The promotional code 2GBBONUS to obtain additional 2GB valid for packages of $35/month and more. In addition to each anniversary year the package decreases by $1 per month un More
