CONTEST NOW CLOSED- Pull Out Those Compliments, It’s Say Something Nice Day!

[Alan_K]

Hey Community,

Take “throwing shade” and throw it out the window for tomorrow is Say Something Nice Day! Take time to compliment one of your friends, thank the person bagging your groceries, or even leave a nice comment on a YouTube video for a change. Kindness is what helps the world go round, so in honor of tomorrow’s holiday here are five of the best compliments from movies:

• “Seriously? It’s like you’re photoshopped!” – Crazy Stupid Love

• “I love you even when you’re sick and look disgusting.” – Love Actually

• “You’re very generous. You’re kind to strangers and children, and when you stand in the snow you look like an angel.” – Groundhog Day

• “You’re so wise. You’re like a miniature Buddha covered in hair.” - Anchorman

• “That’s just a straight shooter with upper management written all over him.” - Office Space

Feel free to use those when you’re slinging out compliments tomorrow. Plus saying nice things to people causes good things to come back to you. Comment below by 12:00 pm ET on June 7, 2019 and give a shout out to someone on the Community who’s done something nice for you recently and we will select three winners at random who will receive a $25 Public Mobile account credit + $25 to the person they shouted out. Let the compliment extravaganza begin! Contest runs May 31 to June 7, 2019. Read Contest Rules before entering.

Although there are many I look up to in this forum, the standout person in my mind is @Luddite .  He is the one I look up to! 

[sunflowershine]

Thanks for all community contributors! I learned a lots from this platform and also able to help others! Good to share some tips!

[CA10]

I have really enjoyed all my interactions with the community here. Everyone is helpful, if someone doesn't know the answer they direct you to someone.

It is nice when people give a thumbs up or like to acknowledge a post - sometimes others are thinking the same thing but it is nice when someone approaches the topic to find answers.

So far I am enjoying htis service 🙂

I would like to take this opportunity to thank @NDesai for creating a F.A.Q. some time ago.

Routinely, I would prepay a few months ahead for my plan (paying 2 or 3 times a year). This went on for a few years until one day I went to pay as I used to but I was greeted with a red warning "Plan Expired" after logging into my serf-serve account. This, despite still having enough available funds on my balance to last 2 more months. I was somewhat alarmed and panicked to say the least.

Fortunately, in my flustered search for a solution on the community forum, I eventually stumbled upon @NDesai's F.A.Q. and there at the very bottom I found exactly the answer I was looking for.

With great relief, the perplexing red warning was resolved; I just coincidentally had never logged into my account on its plan renewal day until then.

Holy cow! That was like 2 years ago, and i have stopped updating as they started to post helpful articles. Anyways, i am glad it helped someone. 

[Jonavin]

Thanks to Public Mobile for making my mobile phone prices go down every year.

Remember to ask Public Mobile to award the $25 prize to your friend named Lucky if you win.

@computergeek541  I never win ...but if I do I'll ask them to give it to a charity of their choice. 

Edit: Canada needs more competition in all areas!

While the moderator team and the top contributors deserve a thank you for their hard work, i want to take a moment to also thank the rest of the PM team including the front end, back end, and behind the scene technicians. Special thanks to the marketing team as they have worked really hard for the past couple of years to create PM brand awareness. Whether you like their approach or not, they deserve a simple thank you 🙂

[Triguy]

Shout out to @Alan_K  and the moderator team for all their work.  It must have been overwhelming recently with network and account issues.  They do alot of behind the scenes work that sometimes does not get enough appreciation.

[Arthur5]

Thanks

[Jadebug]

A lot of people are thanking the moderators and top contributors, and for good reason too. Thank you for all your hard work. 

For my contest entry, I'm giving a shout-out to a username on the "newest community members" list. @Arthur5, welcome to the community! 

[mimmo]

Thanks to the @CS_Agent  for all your hard work. And resolving the many questions and issues that are sent your way. 

Keep up the good work. 

[roblynns]

Thanks to the people who helped me sort out my recent phone issues! Your help was much appreciated.

Well they can certainly hunt and peck. Get it?! hahahaha 🙂

[Lieux]

And @TheOldVR don't forget to give to the next....a free coffee!!

Thanks for your message.

[MandyJ]

I'd like to extend my compliment out to @Anonymous . I'm just new around here, but z10user4 was one of the first usernames that I became familiar with while poking around in the community. They are often around and always willing to go above and beyond the call of duty to help solve people's problems. Thank you for all you do. I've learned a great deal in my short time here from reading your responses!

[TheOldVR]

Have two compliments today....

First one is obvious... for our Oracles AND Top Contributors, they carry much of the weight for PM and their service would not be possible without the Oracles AND Top Contributorstaking on a ton of front-line service.

List is long and I'll miss someone for sure ->>> @Luddite @will13am @ShawnC13 @computergeek541 @NDesai @stonechucker @mimmo @SD08 @Anonymous @Lieux @RobertQc 

Detailed prompt responses and guidance.... great job peeps!

Next, I have to make a shout out to the lady who paid for my coffee at McD's today!!!! Was very nice of her, my cashier was having issues... she heard my order and added it to her order, next thing you know she's handing me a coffee!!!!

Very cool, very nice - and I'll be paying that forward asap!!!!

My compliments and thanks to the lady @ McDonalds!!!!

Happy Saturday peeps!!!

Are we allowed to compliment the RAPTORS btw????? is there a Raptor in the community?
