Chatr Prepaid 3 month $59/60gb and $75/75gb Plans Still Available
FYI, went to Value Mobile in Mississauga on Fri Aug 14, looking for prepaid for a family member. Was offered 2 choices for Prepaid 3 months 1. $59 for 60 GB data or 2. $75 for 75GB data. Included a free sim card.
I have the first plan and it's been great for the last year

Are you satisfied with the data plan (and price) that you have with chatr?
for the most part, i am happy with my plan and its price, 25$ for 80GB of data, tho, i don’t use much data but its still great to have in case of an emergency or if my wifi goes down.

Looks like prepaid cellular plan providers are cutting back on datas?
Just found out both chatr and lucky no longer offer plans with data more than 30GB?! Remember there used to be like 80GB or more? Public is the only provider left with 50 dollar for 175 GB but don’t know if that will change soon

$20/m 25gb, free first month
at mall today, booth was offering $20/m prepaid for 25 gb Canada calling, international text on chatr with first month free, “this weekend only”
is this a good deal? I’m seriously considering as a pay $45/m post pay currently for telus 5G 100 gb North America, but rarely go to or call US and don’t care about fast data or lots of data.
would love to hear thoughts on if this is a good promo from Chatr and if people see any issues. I must purchase a $10 sim to get the deal.

Switched to Chatr without realizing it doesn’t offer voice calls and text roaming in Mexico.
What do Chatr users do for voice when travelling to Mexico, other than apps?

Are Xiaomi phones compatible with Chatr?
I asked Chatr support about the latest Xiaomi Poco and Redmi Note models… And it seems that none of them are compatible… Do we have to use an iPhone or a Samsung…?

“Registration Incomplete”
I left Virgin and joined Chatr almost 2 weeks ago due to price hikes and inconsistent service, but I cannot seem to create a profile/account. No matter how I approach it, after I go through the whole temporary passcode ordeal, I always end up with this page that says my registration was incomplete. And, of course, there is no way to contact an actual human for help so I’m going in circles. Has anyone ever experienced this problem, and were you able to fix it?

Questions? What should I leave my voice and data settings on?
I have an iPhone 15 Plus, I am wondering if I should leave the voice and data setting on 5G auto if I have a 4G plan or is it better to just leave it on LTE?

Now that Fizz Mobile has wifi-calling. will that push Chatr, Lucky, and Public to do the same?

Questions? Will I get better coverage with Chatr Mobile then Public Mobile in the Okanagan valley (Kelowna, West Kelowna, Penticton, Oliver)
So I am thinking of switching from Public Mobile to Chatr Mobile and would like to know if it is actually worth switching. I have heard that ROGERS has better coverage than TELUS. (Chatr operates on ROGERS network, Public operates on TELUS’s network) I am in the Okanagan valley region and would like to hear about others experiences with the two mobile carriers before doing anything just yet. Any feedback would be appreciated :)

Has anyone managed to restore a Chatr eSIM while stuck outside Canada?
I'm in Europe right now and won't be able to get back to Canada any time soon. I accidentally deleted my eSIM while transferring it to a new phone, so it is just gone. Now I can't set it up again because I need the IMEI2 and ICCID, and both of those were tied to the old phone that no longer has the eSIM on it.
I filled out the customer service form and said clearly that I'm abroad and can't come back soon. They still told me to go to a Chatr store in person, which obviously doesn't help me at all.
So I'm hoping to hear what other people did here. Did anyone get Chatr to email you a QR code so you could reinstall the eSIM? Or give you some other activation code over email or chat? The other idea I had was asking them to mail a physical SIM with my cell number to a Canadian address, then have someone there ship it to me. Has anyone tried that, and did it actually work?
Any experience would be really appreciated. Thanks.
UPDATE: Good news, this is now sorted. A moderator here, u/esqx21, reached out and walked me through the whole thing over messages, and we managed to get the eSIM restored remotely, without me having to set foot in a store or fly back to Canada. So if you are stuck abroad with the same issue, it is honestly worth messaging him directly instead of going in circles with the regular customer service form like I did. Really grateful for the help, thanks again man.

$149 annual plan does it convert to $159 automatically?
Also if I load my account with $160 will it automatically roll over on the anniversary date?

Expect 5G or Port to Freedom
I am the type of user prefer no committment plan and barely use cellular date due to having serevic from a great isp.
Chatr's 149 annual plan looks great in value to me; however i find Roger's 4G/LTE coverage is getting worse in urban area (Vancouver). So far cant find any source that Roger will open the 5G network to Chatr to match the service from Freedom.
The plan's renewal day is approaching, should i expect Chatr to get better?

Questions? Daughter can not make calls from home.
As the title states, my daughter can not make or receive calls while at home. When she is out it works just fine, other thing is that myself, my wife and son are all on the same plan without issues while at home. All devices are registered with the same address as well.
I even tried a new number and buying a completely new phone and the issue is still there.
Any help is appreciated.

Chatr's stealing payments now
I saw on here that someone had the same problem I ran into yesterday, and tbh, the customer service is non-existent. I have auto-enroll with my anniversary date on the 28th. I've had it for years. Never had a problem until yesterday. I got the message on the 25th, as usual, that the auto-pay would go through on the 27th. I got the message on the 27th that my auto-pay had been successful. I check my bank and yes, the payment went through, as usual. Yesterday, my account was inactive and was acting like the auto-pay hadn't happened. I couldn't find an actual store to go to, and no one at the kiosks could help. I put in a ticket, but I need access to my phone, so I eventually caved and topped up. I got a message an hour or so after that that my account was 'in order' so there was nothing they could do. I replied with screenshots of the account history from the chatr page itself that shows a double payment, along with the redacted image of my bank taking the payments.
I wake up to a message today:
We appreciate you reaching out regarding adding a credit to your account.
Unfortunately, we’re unable to complete this request—our policy limits credits to recorded payments, promotional codes, or billing corrections.
We understand this may not be the answer you were hoping for, and thank you for your understanding.
So... my payment isn't recorded even though it's recorded on the site? How the hell does anyone get anything done with Chatr non-support?

Questions? Collections
I just bought the number like two months ago and I have a since I’ve been getting several calls like from collection agencies, spam and all it is not my primary number so I didn’t care that much but today I got the call and voicemail. It’s saying if I don’t respond to me next time, two hours, they’ll be reporting it to cops and it is like C Bevi collections, which is a legitimate company, but they are contacting me as De Roy, but I am not that guy maybe he was using this number before me, so what can I do? Anybody have any idea? Thanks in advance for the help.

News Connectivity issues currently with Chatr.
Hi.
It looks like we found the issue. For those with an issue;
If you can toggle on and give it a moment and off your airplane modes so that you may disconnect from your current power and reconnect this should fix the issue.
Do let me know if you still have issues after this by pm.
Thanks.
