@Tiana_V Is it possible to change this part of the annoucement?

"All customers that activated on January 20th will receive this promotion"

I've read a few message from people who think that this promotion was only on that one day because of this statement.

I have made an update 🙂

Plan doesn't exist for new customers either.

[Joelkim]

Yes!! I will wait another months for the new plan. 😄

[darlicious]

@Joelkim   You never know what new plans pm will come up with. There were some limited time larger 10/12gb plans on offer last fall. Hopefully they will offer a few more this year to retain and/or lure new customers to the pm family.

Once I sign up for a plan during this time period, I receive the credit automatically within 30 days of activation? Nothing further I need to do, or nothing else regarding this promotion that should show up in my account right?

Wow!  Very attractive promo.

[buiya]

yeah!! Happy new lunar new year everyone!

@Tav  That's awesome. Unless their phone is older than December 2017 it should already be unlocked. If its from telus or koodo it will work on public mobile without unlocking it but always a good idea to do so. Just make sure the account is still active when porting in the number.

[Tav]

Got one of my family members a sim card as part of their Christmas gift and was waiting for a promo.

Signed her up last night to make sure she got the promo.

Gonna port her number in a few days when when she has some time to contact her current provider to have her phone unlocked and can have some downtime during the switch.

@rcheung28   Yes @computergeek541 is correct. This is one of those times being on the west coast and Pacific time works out for you. Certain things on your account will appear dated correctly to our time zone and others will be eastern. In the case of the beginning and end of promotions the eastern time zone stands despite the date appearing the day before. Keep this in mind when paying for your account/renewal it is at 8:59pm pt or 11:59pm et. This applies to US roaming add ons for start times and expiry. In your usage in your account texts are recorded at eastern time as well as unanswered calls. Answered calls are recorded at Pacific time. Just an FYI.

I missed the promo by 31 minutes. I signed up on January 19th, 11:29PM PT.

PM tends to put their announcements in ET time including this one, and by that logic my plan would've been activated on Jan 20th 2:29AM ET. 

But too bad my account self serve page says 19th. Sooooo bummed out.

Your activation happened within the stated promotional period. You are eligible.

[porcupine]

thats great news i am setting up my cousins phone on thursday 25 dollar plan

[deuscies]

Just got my first plan ever! So glad to be with PM!

[darlicious]

@jxn  Unfortunately if you activated on the 19th you are not eligible. Did you  activate late on the 19th....on the west coast maybe?
