Did you press the + sign beside each one to purchase? As well clear your browser cache and then open a browser in incognito/private mode.

Do you recall if there is a message indicating that  you have been entered into the draw?

@mydoghunter There was a confirmation on the screen but it wasn't a window that popped up or anything like that. I can't remember the wording but something like You have successfully entered the draw....

[rbcam]

Like @mydoghunter I'm also having trouble entering the contest. I filled in the fields, etc., and pressed "Enter Contest". The only thing that happened was that the button got a bit bigger?!?

[kistarla]

Yup, same. I've tried entering the contest on both Firefox and Microsoft Edge and nothing seems to happen.

BTW: Thanks, PM, for the free long distance minutes and extra data!

[Lowufo]

Thanks for the free minutes and data Public mobile you guys are awesome!

[Zaelium]

I have the exact same problem. First I entered and it said my phone number was incorrect because I used hyphens between numbers. I tried again without them and then when I click Submit nothing happens!

[mydoghunter]

It's banked until you use it all!😊

[only1utd]

not me.    maybe website is very busy with everyone trying to get the free gifts

Is anyone having problems entering the contest? After filling out ALL the information, then clicking "Enter Contest", nothing happens. Then a minute later, the reCAPTCHA says that the verification expired and to check again. This happens over and over again.

it will last until you use it all up.

example if you have 4 gb of data on your plan and use it all up you still have 2gb of bonus to use.   If you don t use all 2gb of bonus data whatever is left  will just rollover to next month and so on

[Staliger]

@macrocyclo all gifts and addons purchased have no expiration date. They last until you use them up😉

[Nezgar]

1. Go into self-serve https://selfserve.publicmobile.ca/
2. From the overview screen click "Manage Add-ons"
3. Then click "purchase add-ons"
4. Add 1 of each of the $0 add-on's pictured below and circled in red.
5. Click “Buy Add-Ons” at the bottom
6. Review the add-ons back on the overview page (also pictured below circled in red)

Beware, the self-service site has now become extremely slow due to everyone logging in to get the add-ons haha.

Circled in red are the free/$0 2020 holiday add-ons

Thank you PM a little something goes a long way.  Best thing i did was leaving rogers (after 25 years) about a year ago and never ever got any kind of appreciation gift.  

[kb_mv]

@Catherine_T Woohoo! Thanks Public Mobile!

[fujiyama]

Thanks for the awesome gifts and contest! 

[ETusesPublic]

Initially I could not use this add-on because it did not appear on my account. It eventually popped up and I was easily able to add both gifts. It appeared on both of my PM accounts. Thanks PM for helping us to stay connected at a safe distance 🎅 📞🤶 

[dabr]

Great gifts!  Thank you PM and Happy Holidays to everyone.  😊

[will13am]

This is great particularly for existing customers.  Thank you Public Mobile for the annual gifts.
