What is a Public Mobile wallet?
The Public Mobile wallet is used for pay per use services such as overseas calling, roaming and downloads.
In order to use your services while roaming or use per minute
overseas long distance, you must have a sufficient balance in your
Public Mobile wallet.
If there is a sufficient balance in your Public Mobile wallet, you will
be able to make calls and send text messages while roaming. You will
also be able to call long distance
to countries included in our per minute overseas long distance feature.
Per use charges will be deducted from your Public Mobile wallet balance.
