I do believe the real @CannonFodder  has returned! I had to take a double-take after staring at the username. But to return as a customer would take a court martial and a firing squad.

It would take the aforementioned court martial & firing squad, along with a sweet deal, AND, at this point, it'd take either Telus putting up a closer tower, or us to move where we're closer to a Telus tower.

In any case, don't get used to seeing this name around here. 😉

But dang it.....it sure is nice to see that name again! Risen from an unmarked grave, a profile unfairly cut short has returned! Rumours of your demise have been greatly exaggerated! I'm happy to see the original you again. Welcome back to the community!

No, because as you now know, that didn't come to pass, and I use VERY little data, so even if 25GB was offered it wouldn't entice me.....

You should have already received the 2nd month free amount on your invoice.  When did you sign up for the deal?  When did you activate?  Did you use the same email to activate the account as you used to apply for the bonus?  Are you saying you haven't received the 2nd month free amount and the 5GB data?  Or just the 5GB data has not been received?

Just checking!

Been there, Done that.

In the big picture get what you can for your friends as new customers but the biggest items are the ongoing cost savings and the rewards available with PM.

Of course. 🙂

@ottawa 

You are just chewing yourself out .. out loud here right? There was absolutely no reason to not have email addresses registered for this promo as soon as you knew you had friends who may be convinced to sign up. This particular offer ran out, was reintroduced and then that was extended. I had a couple of people thinking seriously about it, one waiting for a SIM card to arrive and had them re-register for the next (identical) “offer just in case”. A year ago all the Black Friday though Christmas offers here came to an end on Jan 2 or 3. This year was far better than last year in that regard. Also, during the last year we went for months and months with absolutely NO New Customer offers so when something... anything showed up people pounced on it. Therefore, I wouldn’t blow off the current offer! There could be another loonnng dry spell ahead yet.

@ottawa 

All promotions are similarily worded "until further notice" or "for a limited time" which means you shouldn't hesistate to register your email. If I have permission to register an email for a friend then I register it for each and every promo until they sign up. For the wafflers I have a couple of spare emails I sign up for these promotions to be able to offer them to new prospective customers who have missed the time limited email registration but are still within the activation window.

[ottawa]

Thank you, I had 2 friends I was going to sign up, I knew I should have submitted their emails earlier but I'm sure I saw the deadline got later. An extra gig is useless to them, but the 2nd month free was compelling. Not sure a bonus they'll never use will convince them to switch to PM.

The last time I looked, the deadline to register had changed to Feb 8, now it's gone and I see in post #1 that it's expired. Did they actually extend it then cancel it early? 😞

 @ottawa 

Submitting the email address is gone for that promo but you can still activate up to then.

But now there's a new promo for a gig a month for 8 months (and some Asian long distance minutes) where you submit an email address.

@Lindsaylee2222 hi it will show in your self serve within 30 days of activation but usually  bit sooner 

[Lindsaylee2222]

When do my 5gb of data show up?

[hang_on]

hi@darlicious,

thanks for the info. i have already contacted a moderator because i was charged for the first month and he told me to wait 30 days for the promo. in my ad that info was omitted : the second month is free.

[darlicious]

@hang_on 

Pm did extend the promo so it shouldnt be an issue but did you submit your email again after january 6th? You have passed the normal dates that these promos/credits are normally added but are still within the 30 days stated in the terms.

You should now wait until day 25 of your plan cycle. If you have not had the promos/credits you qualify for added by then....you should contact the moderators and ask that they add them to your account.

hi @darlicious,

i have activated on january the 12th. the promo ended on january the 15th.

And the 5Gb data add-on bonus was only for $25 and higher priced plans I believe. “Second month free” credit was for a new activation on any plan.

[hang_on]

january the 6th. why do you need that information ? thanks

[darlicious]

@hang_on 

Did you recieve a reminder email from pm to activate? If so what was the date on it?

[mm80]

@hang_on The wait is up to 30 days to get the bonuses.
