@Timer - most seem to agree around here that the old $'s rewards is the better system.

But, if you registered after January 25, 2022, then you are in the Public Points reward system regardless. The old rewards is no longer available to new activations.

If you OPT OUT of the Public Points, well, I heard then you get nothing.

1-so if you are in the old Rewards $ system, best to stay there.

2-if you are in Public Points, new system you cannot go to the old rewards system. And, just don't opt out of the Public Points one.

@Timer if you are new to PM, you have no choice but to stay with Public Points.

If you already joined as of Jan 25th, you have a choice but you certainly better off stay on the old:

Here is a summary for OLD vs NEW

$2 Autopay is no longer there and replaced with 5% , you will get less unless you are on $40 plan or above
(but you get 5% for your other Add-on purchases as well)
No more loyalty rewards, meaning the loyalty discount of $1/month up to $5/month will disappear. Instead, they will only give $10 each year on the anniversary.

For someone with PM between 1st to 12th month
The old reward system will give $0 that year, versus $10 at the end of the 12th month with thew new system
For someone with PM between the 13th and 24th month:
The old reward program will give $12 that year ($1/cycle), versus $10 at the end of the 24th month with the new system
For someone with PM between months 25th and 36th:
the old reward program will give $24 that year ($2/cycle), versus $10 at the end of the 36th month with the new system
.........................
for someone with PM between months 61 and 72 (and every year after that after that point)
the old reward program will give $60/year ($5/cycle) versus $10/year under the new system
You can no longer apply $1 or $2 you got to the bill right a way, you have to collect enough to 15 points to cash out $15 in one shot
Also, you have to remember to convert your points to dollars once it reaches 15 points. PM no longer automatic apply the reward discount.

On the other hand, the goodies for new system,

- 5% Points back for add-on purchases as well

- add-ons are around 33% cheaper when you redeem with Public Points
- you can use 1 point for lucky draw, so, technically you bet $1 and can win an iPhone

The best and fastest way to accumulate points is the anniversary bonus. But it takes a year. Sigh~~:(
