The promo is not limited to this Community post, anything Sep 23-30 ET is eligible and will be accounted for within 72 hours.
I think that @popping might be asking about in-store activations and about $10 and $15 plan activations. This morning, the self serve pages did not specify any conditions.
So people may have jumped the gun. Would you be willing to honour todays activations using a referral before your announcement and after the blurb was put up on the self-serve (whenever that was or just simply dated today) and giving the promo bonus's.
That was a little long 🙂
That's where I think popping was going. So yes the $10 or $15 plans activated wherever.
I'm actually one of them
I was sooooooooooo happy to see it
There was another announcement in the community and it didn't say anything about the plan conditions. If i knew i would have waited for the free sim promo. That was about 5 hours before the second announcement
That other "announcement" was not official like this thread. That was a fellow customer telling us all that he found that deal in the self-serve. It showed up there well before the actual official announcement.

@Psygineerkinda hard to promote something that isn't working all the time, isn't it? Seeing promos when the self-serve is a complete mess reminds me of the analogy "You can put lipstick on a pig, but it is still a pig"
