AutoPay Reward

ET138 — Thu, 06 Jan 2022 08:59:50 GMT

I think I have been short paid one month AutoPay Reward, but the CS-agent disagreed.

Re: Ticket ID:205930-547 Payment / Transaction / Promo Issue B2013-A

Here is my massage to the CS_Ageny:

"Hi,

Referring to the Transaction History in my account:

In Sept. 2021, these are the transactions:

Sep 9, 2021	$10 Referral Credit/Crédit de recommandation de 10 $	$10.00		$12.00
Sep 8, 2021	AutoPay Reward	$2.00		$2.00
Sep 8, 2021	3GB at 3G Speed/3Go à la vitesse 3G		$25.00	$0.00
Sep 8, 2021	30-day plan/Forfait de 30 jours		$10.00	$25.00
Sep 8, 2021	Credit/Visa Debit TopUp-Réapprov crédit/Visa Débit	$35.00		$35.00

Note that the Sep 8, 2021 AutoPay Reward was for Sep, 2021.

In Oct. 2021, these are the transactions:

Oct 8, 2021	3GB at 3G Speed/3Go à la vitesse 3G		$25.00	$0.00
Oct 8, 2021	30-day plan/Forfait de 30 jours		$10.00	$25.00
Oct 8, 2021	Automatic Top-Up/Réapprovisionnements auto.	$23.00		$35.00

Note that there is NO AutoPay Reward for Oct., 2021.

In Nov. 2021, these are the transactions:

Nov 7, 2021	3GB at 3G Speed/3Go à la vitesse 3G		$25.00	$0.00
Nov 7, 2021	30-day plan/Forfait de 30 jours		$10.00	$25.00
Nov 7, 2021	Automatic Top-Up/Réapprovisionnements auto.	$33.00		$35.00
Nov 7, 2021	AutoPay Reward	$2.00		$2.00

Note that the Nov. 7, 2021 AutoPay Reward was for Nov, 2021.

As you can see, for the last 3 months, AutoPay Reward has only been given 2 times (Sep & Nov). That means AutoPay Reward is missing in my Oct, payment. Please review. Thanks."

This is her response:

"Hello again

That's correct the 2$ Autopay reward can not apply to first month.

If you check the transactions the 2$ Autopay reward was offered

after you complete the activation, so your first bill cycle was

8th of September until 8th of October- and for this time you haven't receive the bonus

then for the second bill cycle 8th of October until 7th of November you have

received 2$ Autopay reward which the system automatically credit it to you on 8th of September."

Am I right or am I wrong? Every one of my friends received Autopay Reward every month including the first month. Besides, according to my transaction history above, it is the second month (October) that the AutoPay Reward is missing, not the first month (September).

Please help me understand, thanks.

[sorry.. was talking about the wrong reward earlier :)]

did you change anything after Sept. payment and before Oct payment? like you changed credit card? toggled Autopay? or put your account in suspension or Lost/Stolen?

Re: AutoPay Reward

t_p — Thu, 11 Nov 2021 19:04:13 GMT

@ET138

Yeah, looks like your Oct reward is missing.

I think you should ask again, maybe will get a more knowledgeable CSA this time.

Re: AutoPay Reward

ET138 — Thu, 11 Nov 2021 19:08:15 GMT

No, nothing changed since my first activation on Sept 8, 2021.

Re: AutoPay Reward

hTideGnow — Thu, 11 Nov 2021 19:10:59 GMT

@ET138 you activated on Sept 8.

Sept 8 does NOT qualify for Autopay as it was activation ,there was no Autopay used

they deposit the $2 Autopay reward on Sept 8 and $10 friend referral on Sept 9

Sep 9, 2021	$10 Referral Credit/Crédit de recommandation de 10 $	$10.00		$12.00
Sep 8, 2021	AutoPay Reward	$2.00		$2.00

So, now you have $12 credit for the next month

(again, the Autopay reward on Sept 8 is in fact for the 2nd payment.. They deposit the money earlier. that $2 was NOT for the initial payment in Sept 8 as that was Activation.. no autopay was trigger on Sept 😎

When oct comes, it used the credit from earlier $12

In Oct. 2021, these are the transactions:

Oct 8, 2021	3GB at 3G Speed/3Go à la vitesse 3G		$25.00	$0.00
Oct 8, 2021	30-day plan/Forfait de 30 jours		$10.00	$25.00
Oct 8, 2021	Automatic Top-Up/Réapprovisionnements auto.	$23.00		$35.00

That why you are paying $23 only

Then Nov. payment .. you see the $2 there..

Nov 7, 2021	3GB at 3G Speed/3Go à la vitesse 3G		$25.00	$0.00
Nov 7, 2021	30-day plan/Forfait de 30 jours		$10.00	$25.00
Nov 7, 2021	Automatic Top-Up/Réapprovisionnements auto.	$33.00		$35.00
Nov 7, 2021	AutoPay Reward	$2.00		$2.00

you should see the same 4 lines there from now.. and maybe another line for Community reward 🙂

Should I start a new Private Message and "hope" for a new knowledgeable CS_Agent to respond to me?

Re: AutoPay Reward

ET138 — Thu, 11 Nov 2021 19:18:29 GMT

As I mentioned in my first post, I already did submit a ticket and got a response.

Re: Ticket ID:205930-547 Payment / Transaction / Promo Issue B2013-A

Just that I do not believe she is correct.

@ET138 we have no access to your private message so we didn't see what the agent said.

but you see my breakdown above?

@ET138 Unless I'm missing something in your post, your second month's payment should have been $21 (not $23) as you should have received two autopay rewards totaling $4 plus RAF $10. So yes you are missing one autopay and I'd follow up with customer support.

Re: AutoPay Reward

softech — Thu, 11 Nov 2021 19:28:09 GMT

@ET138 If you activated in Sept 8 and you renewed on Oct 8 and Nov 7, then Autopay $2 off twice make sense. Autopay might not apply for the activation payment.

BUT.... I think I was reading some posts discussing about that first month's Autopay $2 earlier this week. I forgot if PM kind enough to still apply the $2 back after. Anyone else remember?

Re: AutoPay Reward

t_p — Thu, 11 Nov 2021 19:47:53 GMT

@ET138

Did you set up autopay during activation?

If you did it after (like I did) you won't get the first month credit.

@softech Autopay rewards is never applied to the first (activation) payment. That is always full plan amount and that's why there's a doubling up of autopay ($4) to be applied for the second month's payment.

@ET138 I concur with @dabr ...at least that is how I see it.

This, meaning, is only if you activated with AUTOPAY enabled.

So if that ticket is closed, then I would ask another CSA to look into it and open another ticket.

If the ticket is open still, reply to it, but include CS_Agent in the TO line of your message. This will go to the Customer Support Team, not just the one agent that replied to you last time.

Re: AutoPay Reward

softech — Thu, 11 Nov 2021 20:21:58 GMT

I wonder if opt in for Autopay during activation instead of AFTER might be the difference in OP case. Let's hope OP come back and confirm when he enabled autopay

Re: AutoPay Reward

Anonymous — Thu, 11 Nov 2021 20:29:17 GMT

The OP is correct to conclude that they didn't get the Oct 8 reward.

Whether they activated on Sep 8 or not. That's how the initial autopay reward shows up anyway.

Referring to PM's "Rewards FAQs" :

https://www.publicmobile.ca/en/on/get-help/articles/rewards-faqs

"When Are Rewards Applied To My Account?

Here are some things you should keep in mind about our Rewards program:

All earned Rewards are applied to your account on your plan renewal date, before your payment is processed.
There are exceptions to the above statement:
- If you set up AutoPay at activation, your first AutoPay reward will be automatically credited to your Self-Serve account after activation. After that, you will receive an AutoPay reward at each renewal date before payment is processed."

I did activate AutoPay at the time of activation (Sep 8), and on the same day $2 AutoPay reward was credited to my account. Exactly as described in Reward FAQs: "If you set up AutoPay at activation, your first AutoPay reward will be automatically credited to your Self-Serve account after activation."

However, at the renewal date in Oct, the AutoPay reward was missing before payment was processed; contradicting to the description in Reward FAQS: "After that, you will receive an AutoPay reward at each renewal date before payment is processed."

To me, it is quite clear that my Oct AutoPay reward is missing.

Re: AutoPay Reward

hTideGnow — Fri, 12 Nov 2021 01:56:27 GMT

@ET138 From other members' comment, if you opt in Autopay during activation, it does sound like you should have one more Autopay reward. I understand you already open a ticket but the reply wasn't what you want. I suggest you open another ticket and try to get another review. You might even request to have a senior support to take care of your case.

Good luck and let us know how it turns out.

Re: AutoPay Reward

I have just written back to the same CS_Agent, hoping that she can understand my point, so that in the future she can better handle other new members with the same problem.

This is my reply to her:

"Re: Ticket ID:205930-547 Payment / Transaction / Promo Issue B2013-A

I did activate AutoPay at the time of activation (Sep 8), and on the same day $2 AutoPay reward was credited to my account. Exactly as described in "Reward FAQs": "If you set up AutoPay at activation, your first AutoPay reward will be automatically credited to your Self-Serve account after activation." So the $2 AutoPay reward on Sep 8 was my first AutoPay reward credited back to me for the first period.

Then in the "Reward FAQs" it continues to state that: "After that, you will receive an AutoPay reward at each renewal date before payment is processed." That means I should have been given a $2 AutoPay reward on Oct 8 before the payment was processed, but it was not there. The reason I paid $23 instead of $35 was because of the balance in my account which were from my first AutoPay reward ($2) during activation on Sep 8 and my $10 Referral Credit on Sep 9.

If you look at my Nov renewal, I did receive the $2 AutoPay reward right on Nov 7, the same day as the payment was processed, exactly as described in your "Rewards FAQs".

So the only problem is with my Oct renewal, the $2 AutoPay reward is missing."

Good luck to me! 🙂
