Hey Community,

For a limited time only, new customers can get their second month free when they activate on any plan online or in-store.

This offer is available to new customers only. Rules and conditions apply.

How to Get this Offer:

Receive a confirmation message that the email address you’ve submitted is now eligible for the offer.
Activate on any plan online or in-store to redeem this offer.

How to Activate:

If you need to purchase a SIM card, click here to order a SIM card online through Public Mobile. Your SIM card will be shipped within 3 to 7 business days. You can also order your SIM card through Amazon, and choose your shipping speed. Alternatively, you can purchase a SIM card by locating a retailer near you.

@Catherine_T

Thanks for clarifying this time around that the in-store offer is only for the initial 4 day period.

Just a quick question though: This has been asked in the past by members.. Is the e-mail registration required during the inittial December 18-21, or is that only required if activating online from December 22 to January 8?

Also, does in-store activation from Decemer 18-21 still require e-mail pre-registration?

All I need is the $15 plan, and I'm debating whether to get this or wait for the possibility of seeing that $5 off for 6 months flash sale again. Someone make the decision for me please 🙂

Nobody can make that decision for you, and nobody knows for sure what the future promotions will be. I would suggest to sign up whenever you see an offer that you're happy with.

Those $5 off incentives are usually targeted at plans $25 or higher.

Hi @pmpublic , as for registering for a promotion that meets your needs, I've got a recommendation.

Because there are over-lapping promos over the past several weeks, you might wish to register a different e-mail address for each of the over-lapping promos. The reason for this is that Public Mobile will, by default, take the 1st promotion registered so if you happened to register the same e-mail address for a subsequent promo (and BOTH are still within their activation eligibility periods), you won't get the more recent one you registered for. I'd recommend the goal should be to activate before end of year so you can get the More the Merrier promotion add-on ON TOP of the current activation promos.

I plan to register a 2nd e-mail address for the more recent promo since there's no minimal plan value limit.

If before the end of the year they release ANOTHER promo which is even better (i know, dream on...) then I can re-use the first e-mail address since the activation period will have expired for it on December 21.

And the most important point to remember is to activate with the SAME e-mail address which matches the promo which best suits your needs.

Cheers!!

I don't have a crystal ball that works, but I just can't see $5 x 6 month deal being offered for the $15 plan. Add in autopay reward and you are looking paying under $10 for 6 months.

@Catherine_T, can we get these FLASH SALES to reflect all plans and have it changed to your SECOND 30 DAYS FREE, not second month FREE. This will match the plan lengths offered and keep everything inline

Well if we're doing this too then @Catherine_T it's also not 30 _business_ days. It's just 30 days. 30 business days would put the credit past the renewal day thereby not being a "free month".

There...I fixed the subject line too. 🙂

@hairbag1 It was actually for 8 months instead of 6, I guess they were in a generous mood back then hah. https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/Announcements/Limited-time-offer-Get-up-to-10-off-for-8-months-when-you/td-p/488013

There... I reinstated @Anonymous ‘s Subject line Improvement (the subject line in a post is copied from the post you hit the “Reply Button” on)

So this is a change from last weekends Flash Sale in that ALL plans qualify this time, not only $35 and higher plans.

I really screwed up coaching a friend through activating. He registered his email last weekend and activated last night. But he messed up and activated on the $25 plan (Buzzer Sound) and now hours later the sale is back for any plan, not $35 and higher. I may have to get him to send the moderators a nice friendly message about the error.

I’m the “PM Mentor” to all my friends and I screwed up. 😞 To be fair I did include all the pertinent info to him including the $35 or higher plan part but the $35 part slipped through the cracks at final sign up.

DRAT!

@Anonymous

Further Improvements to the Subject Line.

Including the Date sure clarifies things about questions that come later about this offer. I saw 4 Flash Sale replies when I checked just now and two of them were on last weekends Flash Sale Topic and two were this Weekends!

AND, if for some reason this were to get extended through Christmas or New Years Day...the Moderator needs to Edit the initial post in RED saying Qualification Time Extended until January 1, 2021. This is just an example...it ISN’T Extended!

Would I be eligable if I activated yesterday? It says my email is invalid when I entered it.

@fricstix I doubt you can get in on it. The rules are "activate from 18 Dec (today).....

If you activated yesterday.........

Your email is probably deemed invalid because this is for new activations and I'm guessing the email you used is tied to your current account.

I suppose I won't be as hasty next time.

@fricstix Win some, lose some. There will probably be another flash sale on plans in the not to distant future. Keep an eye out, you never know when they are going to do these....
