Petro Canada anytime pay per use-data not available

It's my understanding (after talking to customer service) that data is no longer available for anytime pay per use (pay as you go)? Rogers is no longer supporting data on the 3g network and the pay as you go option uses 3g only. Petro Canada hasn'tbupdated their website. If anyone has a good option for pay as you data that would be appreciated. Thx




Petro-Canada has transitioned to good2go in August 2022.

If you had data enabled prior to August 2022 then the data streaming should still work.

If not then you can only use their monthly 30 days plans.

Another issue with their data depends on the age of Petro-Canada SIM card as the APN settings on them are non-editable and is greyed out and a new APN cannot be added without the + visible.

 Older Petro-Canada SIM cards with the APN:  ltemobile.com will not work after August 2022.

The new good2go APN:  rogers-core-appl1.apn is need for data to function.

You either need a new SIM card or a third party app like MyAPN_v2.0 for it to add a new APN in order to get data working again.

I just found out too today that my 3G data is no longer working on pay per use prepaid. Weird thing is my wife's has the same set up and hers is still working. Mine seems to stop working after I updated my iPhone 11 Pro Max to latest iOS


Hi David. Sorry, are you pertaining to their Pay-per-use not being updated? I still see the per use data rate of $0.15/MB. What about Virgin Plus' $100 Annual Prepaid plan if you want something longer. Also check Fido's annual prepaid plan and Freedom's annual prepaid plans. There's also Lum Mobile with their 3-month and 12-month plans.


David

Just to be clear. I believe you are forced to have a monthly plan now to get data. I had a top up pay per use with longer top up time frames. They no longer have data for this option. This still is not made clear on the website.


David

That's the plan I was making reference to. They haven't updated their website to point out data is now not included with pay per use plans. I'm in BC


Hi David. How about PC Mobile's $20 prepaid plan? Unlimited calls and text and pay per use data at $0.15 per MB. Visit Cellphones.ca plans page if you want to see more options. Or you can also let me know which province you're in and how much mins and text you need so I can make better suggestions.
