    New Public mobile deal. $40 for 75gb with CAN-US (free US roaming). Looks like they have a $34 plan /w 50GB and free US roaming as well for new activations.

    [Public Mobile] $40 75GB CAN-US monthly (existing) - RedFlagDeals.com Forums
    Thanks! Just switched wife and myself, just in time, my renewal is tomorrow. Was on the $34 40GB plan from Boxing Day, might as well get 75GB and USA as well for an extra $6 a month per line. Decent Jimmy....Decent!

    Tip, even if your renewal is far away, you can set it to switch at next renewal date, so you aren't wasting any prepaid days on current plan.

    SIM cards on Amazon with next day delivery as well if you want rather than ordering through public

    Sometimes you can get a Sim card free from the Telus store too. Or buy it there.

    The Can/US plans are pretty ridiculously good.

    Makes it really hard to imagine a reason to pay more then $50/mo.

    Wow. We are paying $25/month for 6gb through Shaw/Rogers. Might need to look at this.

    The $34 Can-US plan is available for existing subscribers now. I was still on the $34 20GB plan up until now cause all the better recent plans were only available for new activations.

    That's a good deal. 50GB is plenty for me. I'm switching, and may as well switch my wife, since she's on a smaller data $34 plan, may as well get the free USA and more data.

    Ditto. Just switched to 40 a month for 75gb plan posted here, but set it up to switch to 50gb/$34 plan next renewal.

    I would have switched to $34 US/CAN plan if it was not for new customers only.

    Think this is dead now. I changed mine yesterday middle of the day, but didn't get home until about 10PM, and when I tried to change my wife's account, it was no longer showing as an option. It's weird, when checking now, it shows plans with banners like "Boxing Week" $40 promotion......Boxing week....so sounds like something is up with their systems now. Also the current $34 promo listed on their site says until March 4th only...wonder if that's why it doesn't show as an option under her account anymore. Very confused.

    They've been advertising boxing week this whole time. Weird.
    I got on the $34, sucks if you didn't. Maybe it was an error.

    Eh, I got one account on $34 (at renewal next month) and another at the $40 75gb deal from week prior, so not too bad overall anyways. I don't even use much of my data, with dual sim all my data goes to the corporate sim card Just trying to get the best deal possible.

    Moved over kids to $34 CAD/US. Too bad it won't start until Mar 25.

    Actually, think the reason I didn't see the $34 plan any longer....was because despite the error I got last night, the change went through! I checked payments button and it showed that $34 plan will be used during next renewal, so false alarm it seems, all is good.

    I was making the change at 10:02PM last night, which is after midnight eastern, and got an error that something went wrong, so assumed it didn't work, but it did! Was thinking they were pushing a change at midnight eastern and plan was no longer an option right as I was switching.
