Hey Community,
Here at Public Mobile, we love the holiday season. It’s the perfect time of year to spend time with loved ones and share gifts with the people you appreciate. This holiday season, we want to show you how much we appreciate you.
On top of the free data and international calling you can get during our 3 weeks of giving (see that Community post here), we’re giving away a whole lot of Amazon gift cards!
I’m intrigued… what could I win?
One of a whole lot of Amazon gift cards - 160 to be exact.
Cha-ching! How do I get in on this contest?
Let us know in a comment below... what is your favourite part about the holiday season? Do you look forward to seeing loved ones, bundling up for outdoor winter fun, giving (or getting) gifts, or doing nothing at all? We want to hear what makes this time of the year special for you. Once you comment, you’ll be entered into a random draw to win one of our prizes.
When and how will I know if I won?
Make sure to enter before December 25th 11:59PM ET for your chance to win. All the winners will be selected and contacted via private message the week of January 7th 2020. This Community post will also be updated with a list of the winners. A little way to start your year off right.
Happy Holidays! We can’t wait to hear from you!

Gift giving!
12-04-2019 04:22 AM
My favorite holiday tradition is cracking a bottle of my favorite Black Spiced Rum and wrapping presents with my wonderful wife and waking up in the morning to undo all our hard work with my two beautiful boys. Now that they are handsome Men, perhaps my new tradition will be helping people on the Community, referring friends during great promos and accepting valuable gifts from Public Mobile.
Full disclosure, I NEVER saw the last present wrapped, and any new tradition will definately involve a bottle of me favourite Black Spiced RUM, Arrrgh! #CaptainandthePMCommunity
